► Ensure that there is sufficient vibration decoupling.
► Use a bending wrench and flexible springs in order to prevent kinks in the
pipeline.
► Keep the interior of the refrigerant pipes free from air humidity, dirt and
residue.
► Use a pipe cutter to cut the pipe to length.
► Always hold the pipe downwards during lengthening and deburring.
► Do not blow into the pipe (air humidity).
The outdoor unit is pre-filled with R410A refrigerant.
► Keep the isolation valves on the outdoor unit closed.
The indoor unit is filled with nitrogen.
► When unscrewing the flare nut, check whether you can hear the nitrogen
escaping.
► Only carry out the leak-tightness test on the refrigerant pipes using dry nitro-
gen.
Test pressure: 2.5 MPa (25 bar)
Waiting period: 10 mins
► Use a leak detection spray to check the connections.
