may be broken.
The fl are nut on the small pipe side
should be torqued to 122 - 165lbf.in
(140 - 190kgf.cm).
WARNING

BURST HAZARD
Do not allow air, etc. to get into refrigerant cycle (piping)
RISK OF EXPLOSION
Compressor must be stopped before removing refrigerant pipes.
All service valve must be fully closed after pumping down operation.
WARNING
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

Indoor Unit
When removing the connecting wires for the indoor unit, please remove the low
cover panel in front of the unit.
WARNING
!
The naked part of the wire core should be 10 mm fi x it to the terminal tightly. Then
try to pull the individual wire to check if the contact is tight. Improper insertion may
burn the terminal.
Be sure to use only wire specifi ed for the use of air-conditioner.
Please refer to the manual for wire connection and the wiring technique should
meet the standard of the electrical installation.
There is an AC voltage drop between the LN terminal if the power is on. Therefore,
be sure to remove the plug from its socket.
Insulation And Maintenance Of
1
Pipe Connection
The connected terminals should be completely
sealed with heat insulator and then tied up with
rubber strap.
Please tie the pipe and power line together with vinyl
tape as shown in the fi gure showing the installation
of Indoor and Outdoor units. Then fi x their position
with holders.
To enchance the heat insulation and to prevent
water condensation, please cover the outdoor part
of the drain hose and pipe with insulation pipe.
Completely seal any gap with putty.

CAUTION
!
Please use a new socket. Accident may occur
due to the use of old socket because of poor
contact.
Please plug in and then remove the plug for
2 – 3 times. This is to ensure that the plug is
completely plugged into the socket.
Keep additional length for the power cord and
do not render the plug under external force as
this may cause poor contact.
Do not fi x the power cord with U-shape nail.
Operation Test
Please ensure that the air conditioner is in normal
operating condition during the operation test.
Explain to your customer the proper operation
procedures as described in the user's manual.

Preparation of Pipe
1
Use a pipe cutter to cut the copper pipe.
Jagged edge will cause leakage.
Point the side to be trimmed downwards during trimming to prevent copper
chips from entering the pipe.

Pipe Connection
When removing fl are nut from the Indoor unit, please ensure to use proper
tooling.
Prevent pipe from coming in contact with water or working in wet area.
Leave some space in the connecting cord for maintenance
purpose and be sure to secure it with the cord band.
Secure the connecting cord along the coated part of the
wire using the cord band. Do not exert pressure on the
wire as this may cause overheating or fi re.
Supply cords, current- carrying conductors become
taut before earthing conductor, if the cord slips out
of the cord band.
Checking for the electric source and the voltage range
Before installation, the power source must be checked and necessary wiring
work must be completed. To make the wiring capacity proper, use the wire gauge
list below for the wiring from house distribution fuse box to the outdoor unit in
consideration of the locked rotor current.
Investigate the power supply capacity and other electrical conditions at the installation
location.
Depending on the model of room air conditioner to be installed, request the customer
to make arrangements for the necessary electrical work etc.
The electrical work includes the wiring work up the outdoor. In localities where
electrical conditions are poor, use of a voltage regulation is recommended.
Wiring Of The Indoor Unit
For wire connection of the Indoor unit, you need to remove front panel and electrical
cover.
Method to remove front panel
Please refer to Instruction Manual – "Removing the Front Panel" under "Cleaning
of Front Panel".
After remove the
screw and band, put

Pump Down Method When Reuse
Existing Piping (R410A Model) for R32 Model
Compressor oil of R410A model is insoluble in compressor
oil of R32 model. The mixing of compressor oil may cause
damage of compressor.
Possibility of Mixing
Reuse of piping of R410A model is dangerous because of
its compressor oil.
When reuse piping of R410A model, pump down must
be carried out properly to ensure compressor oil which is
remained inside piping is collected away.
!
CAUTION
Reuse of piping R410A model only apply if previous
model is Hitachi and proper pump down method is used.
To Reuse Old Piping
Piping of R410A model can be reused only when air-
conditioner is properly pumped down.
The purpose of pump down is to collect back the compressor
oil (which is mixed with refrigerant and circulating inside
refrigeration cycle) properly into the outdoor unit of air
conditioner.
Proper Pump Down Method
1
Operate air conditioner at cooling mode for 10~15
minutes
Most Important Process
Purpose: To make the oil & refrigerant mix together.
They are in separated condition when air conditioner

!
is stopped.
2
After 10~15 minutes of pre operation, close 2s valve.
After 3 minutes, close 3s valve.
Mixed refrigerant & oil will be collected into outdoor
unit.
3
Take out air conditioner unit.
It is advisable to fl ush the piping with R32 to avoid any
contamination remain before new installation.

Removal Of Air From The Pipe And Gas Leakage Inspection
Procedures of using Vacuum Pump for Air Removal
As shown in right fi gure, remove the cap of
valve core. Then, connect the charge hose.
1
Remove the cap of valve head. Connect the
vacuum pump adapter to the vacuum pump
and connect the charge hose to the adapter.
Fully tighten the "Hi" knob of the manifold
valve and completely unscrew the "Lo" knob.
Run the vacuum pump for about 10~15
2
minutes, then completely tighten the "Lo" knob
and switch off the vacuum pump.
After vacuuming, confi rm that the needle of
the manifold gauge is stable for 3~5 minutes.
Remove the charge hose and tighten the cap
3
of valve core. Check the cap's periphery if
there is any gas leakage.
Completely unscrew the spindle of the
service valve (at 2 places) in anti-clockwise
4
direction to allow the fl ow of refrigerant (using
Hexagonal Wrench key).
Re-cap the service valve and tighten using
5
wrench. Check the cap's periphery if there is
any gas leakage. The task is then completed.
!
CAUTION
Prevent moisture from entering pipe connection.
Refrigerating machine oil not be applied to the outside
of the fl are.
When refrigerating oil is applied to the outside of the
fl are, cracking of the fl are nut, destruction of the fl are
and gas leakage may occur due to the excessive
tightening of the fl are nut.
When using the control valve, do not use deteriorated
packing. And, do not overtighten the steering wheel.
Gas leakage from the service valve part, stagnation,
touching fi re, rarely cause ignition.
Remove the screw and electrical cover.
Insert the connecting cord (A, B) from the back of unit.
Fixed the wire to terminal wires fi rmly as shown as below.
