[1] Warning for service (1) Do not alter the unit. (2) For installation and relocation work, follow the instructions in the Installation Manual and use tools and pipe components specifically made for use with refrigerant specified in the outdoor unit installation manual. (3) Ask a dealer or an authorized technician to install, relocate and repair the unit.
[2] Cautions for unit using R32 refrigerant Basic work procedures are the same as those for conventional units using refrigerant R410A. However, pay careful attention to the following points. (1) Information on servicing (1-1) Checks on the Area Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimized.
Page 6
(3) Repair to intrinsically Safe Components Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a flammable atmos- phere.
Page 7
b) Isolate system electrically. c) Before attempting the procedure, ensure that: • mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders; • all personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly; • the recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person; •...

2-3. Choosing the outdoor unit installation location R32 is heavier than air—as well as other refrigerants— so tends to accumulate at the base (in the vicinity of the floor). If R32 accumulates around base, it may reach a flammable concentration in case room is small. To avoid ignition, maintaining a safe work environment is required by ensuring appropriate ventilation.
Page 9
C) Create an appropriate ventilation open area. Make sure that the width of the open area is 0.9 [m] or more and the height of the open area is 0.15 [m] or more. However, the height from the bottom of the installation space to the bottom edge of the open area should be 0.125 [m] or less.

11-5. TROUBLESHOOTING FLOW A How to check inverter/compressor Disconnect the connector between the compressor and the intelligent power module (IC700) Check the voltage between terminals. See 11-5. “Check of open phase”. Are the voltages balanced? Replace the inverter P.C. board. Check the compressor.
Page 34
D Check of compressor winding Disconnect the connector between the compressor and the intelligent power module, and measure the resistance between the compressor terminals. <Measurement point> Measure the resistance between the lead wires at 3 points. BK-WH BK-RD WH-RD <Judgement> Refer to "11-4.
Page 35
G Check of R.V. coil First of all, measure the resistance of R.V. coil to check if the coil is defective. Refer to "11-4. TROUBLE CRITERION OF MAIN PARTS". In case CN721(M25/35/50)/CN602(M60/71) is not connected or R.V. coil is open, voltage is generated between the terminal pins of the connector although any signal is not being transmitted to R.V.
