Use the specified non-flammable refrigerant (R410A) to the outdoor
unit in the refrigerant cycle. Do not charge material other than R410A
into the unit such as hydrocarbon refrigerants (propane or etc.),
oxygen, flammable gases (acetylene, etc.) or poisonous gases when
installing, maintaining and moving. These flammables are extremely
dangerous and may cause an explosion, a fire, and injury.

5 As the new refrigerant (r410A) is adopted, the refrigerant
oil has been also changed, which tends to be affected by
foreign matters such as moisture, oxide film, fat. Perform the
installation work with care not to enter moisture, dust or old
refrigerant into the refrigerant cycle, otherwise the parts such
as expansion valve bite foreign matter and the operation
may be unavailable.
6 Use a pipe cutter to avoid a grind swarf generation for the
pipe cutting work. (Do not use a saw or a grind stone to cut
pipes.) Blow the inside of the pipes with nitrogen or dry air,
to remove any dust or foreign materials before connecting
pipes.
