Precautions when connecting piping between outdoor units (In
case of multi system)
The Outdoor unit multi connection piping kit (sold separately) is
needed to connect piping between outdoor units in multi system.
Only proceed with piping work after considering the limitations on
installation listed here and in "5. Branching the refrigerant piping",
always referring to the kit's installation manual.
(1) The piping between outdoor units must be installed level
(Pattern 1) or with a rise (Pattern 2). Otherwise, oil may pool
in the pipes.
