IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Any person who is involved with working on or breaking into a refrigerant circuit should hold a current valid certificate from an industry-accredited assessment authority, which authorizes their competence to handle refrigerants safely in accordance with an industry recognized assessment specification.
Page 11
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Always insert the filter securely after cleaning. Clean the filter every two weeks or more often if necessary. A dirty filter reduces the efficiency. • Do not insert hands or other objects through the air inlet or outlet while the product is operating.
Page 12
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • If you eat the liquid from the batteries, brush your teeth and see doctor. Do not use the remote if the batteries have leaked. The chemicals in batteries could cause burns or other health hazards. • Do not let the air conditioner run for a long time when the humidity is very high and a door or a window is left open.

WIRING CONNECTION Precautions when laying power wiring Use round pressure terminals for connections to the power terminal block. Power wire Round pressure terminal When none are available, follow the instructions below. - Do not connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block. (Slack in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat.) - When connecting wiring which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure below.
WIRING CONNECTION Connecting the cable to Outdoor Unit Remove the side panel for wiring connection. Use the cord clamp to fix the cord. Earthing work - Case 1 : Terminal block of Outdoor Unit have mark. Connect the cable of diameter 1.6 mm or more to the earthing terminal provided in the control box and do earthing.
LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system have undesirable effects as indicated below. - Pressure in the system rises. - Operating current rises. - Cooling (or heating) efficiency drops. - Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block capillary tubing. - Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration system.
LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION Indoor unit Do a leakage test of all joints of the tubing (both Indoor unit and outdoor unit) and Outdoor unit both gas and liquid side service valves. Bubbles indicate a leak. Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.
TEST RUNNING TEST RUNNING Precautions In Test Running - The initial power supply must provide at least 90 % of the rated voltage. Otherwise, the air conditioner should not be operated. CAUTION • For test run, carry out the cooling operation firstly even during heating season. If heating operation is carried out firstly, it leads to the trouble of compressor.
Page 31
TEST RUNNING CAUTION After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows: 1 Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram pasted on the inside of control box cover.
