If the distance between the indoor and outdoor units exceeds 5 meters, additional refrigerant charge must be added. For every meter of additional distance, it is necessary to include an extra 12 grams of refrigerant charge.
Please refer to chapter "Electrical connection including radio equipment components".
In order to select the correct fuse for this installation, it is important that the skilled person installing the air conditioner pays attention to chapter "Electrical connection".
Risk of injury from sharp edges!
Danger of burns!
During operation the pipes become hot.

If it is necessary to take the indoor unit off the mounting plate:
To avoid condensation and water leakage, the connecting pipe must be wrapped with tape to ensure isolation from the air.

Risk of explosion and injury from presence of other gases or substances.
The presence of other gases or substances will lower the unit's capacity, and can cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle.
Discharge of refrigerant due to leaky connections
Refrigerant may be discharged if pipe connections are incorrectly installed. Reusable mechanical connectors and flared joints are not allowed indoors.
Copper pipes are available in metric and imperial sizes, the flare nut thread is however the same. The flared fittings on the indoor and outdoor unit are intended for imperial sizes.

NOTICE
Reduced efficiency due to heat transfer between refrigerant pipes
The condensate drain of the indoor unit has two connections. A condensate hose and bung are mounted on these connections at the factory and can be replaced (Fig. 28).
Observe the national and local regulations when carrying out the tightness test.
Air and foreign matter in the refrigerant circuit can cause abnormal rises in pressure, which can damage the air conditioner, reduce its efficiency, and cause injury.
Evacuation should be performed upon initial installation and when unit is relocated. Only proceed with this step after checking the tightness of the system.
Before performing the evacuation:
When opening valve stems, turn the hexagonal wrench until it hits against the stopper. Do not try to force the valve to open further.
Some systems require additional charging depending on pipe lengths. The standard pipe length varies according to local regulations.
NOTICE
Malfunction due to incorrect refrigerant
The outdoor unit is filled with R32 refrigerant at the factory.
| Connective pipe length (m) | Air purging method | Additional refrigerant |
| ≤ Standard pipe length | Vacuum pump | N/A |
| > Standard pipe length | Vacuum pump | Liquid Side: Ø 6.35 (ø 0.25") R32: (Pipe length – standard length) x 12g/m (Pipe length – standard length) x 0.13oZ/ft |
If refrigerant needs to be topped up, only use the same refrigerant. Do not mix refrigerant types.
Risk to life from electric shock!
Touching live electrical parts can cause an electric shock.
The indoor unit is connected to the outdoor unit using a 5-core communication cable of the type H07RN-F or H05RN-F. The conductor cross-section of the communication cable should be at least 1.5 mm2.
NOTICE
Material damage due to incorrectly connected indoor unit
Voltage is supplied to the indoor unit via the outdoor unit.
To connect the communication cable:
NOTICE
Unit malfunction.
A power cable (3-core) is connected to the outdoor unit and the communication cable is connected to the indoor unit (5-core). Use cables of the type H07RN-F with sufficient conductor cross-section and protect the mains power supply with a fuse (Table 40).

Discharge of refrigerant due to leaky connections
Refrigerant may be discharged if pipe connections are incorrectly installed. Reusable mechanical connectors and flared joints are not allowed indoors.
Before the test run is performed:
There are two different methods to check for gas leaks.
Soap and water method
Leak detector method
The system can be tested once the installation including tightness test has been carried out and the electrical connection has been established:
You cannot use the remote controller to turn on the COOL function when the ambient temperature is below 16°C. For that, use the MANUAL CONTROL button to test the COOL function:
To switch on the cooling mode manually:

Note: units set to cooling/dry/fan mode will be affected with a mode conflict as soon as one other unit in the system is set to heating (heating is the priority system mode).
If faults occur during operation that cannot be eliminated:
Table 44
| Fault | Possible cause |
| The output of the indoor unit is too low. | Temperature is set too high or too low. |
| Air filter is soiled and must be cleaned. | |
| Unfavourable ambient conditions for the indoor unit, e.g. the ventilation openings of the devices are obstructed, doors/windows in the room are open or the room contains powerful heat sources. | |
| Low-noise operation is activated and prevents the full output from being used. | |
| Indoor unit does not switch on. | The indoor unit has a safety mechanism to prevent overloading. It may take 3 minutes, until the indoor unit can be restarted. |
| The batteries of the remote control are empty. | |
| The timer is switched on. | |
| Operating mode changes from Cooling or Heating to Fan Mode. | The indoor unit changes operating mode to prevent the formation of frost. Once the temperature increases, the unit will start operating in the previously selected mode again. |
| The set temperature is reached provisionally, at which point the unit turns off the compressor. The unit will continue operating when the temperature fluctuates again. | |
| A white mist is coming from the indoor unit. | In humid regions, white mist may appear if there is a significant temperature difference between the indoor air and air-conditioned air. |
| White mist is emerging from the indoor unit and outdoor unit. | If heating mode is activated directly after automatic defrosting, this can generate white mist due to the higher level of humidity. |
| There is noise coming from the indoor unit and outdoor unit. | A swooshing noise may be heard inside the indoor unit if the position of the airflow grille is set back. |
| A quiet hissing noise is normal during operation. This is caused by the flow of refrigerant. | |
| Creaks and squeaks may be heard, as the metal and plastic parts of the device expand or contract during heating/cooling. | |
| The outdoor unit also emits a range of other noises during operation which is normal. | |
| Dust is being discharged from the indoor unit or outdoor unit. | Dust may accumulate in the devices if they are shut down for an extended period and not covered. This can be mitigated by covering the unit during long periods of inactivity. |
| Unpleasant odour during operation. | Unpleasant odours in the air may enter the devices and spread. |
| There may be mould on the air filter and it must therefore be cleaned. | |
| The fan of the outdoor unit is not running continuously. | Variable fan control is used to ensure optimum operation. |
| Operation is irregular or unpredictable or the indoor unit is not responding. | The indoor unit may be affected by interference from mobile radio masts or external signal amplifiers.
|
| Air baffle or louvres do not run correctly. | Air baffle or louvres have been adjusted manually or have not been correctly installed.
|
| Poor cooling performance | Temperature setting may be higher than ambient room temperature.
|
Temperature setting may be higher than ambient room temperature.
| |
Heat exchanger of the outdoor or indoor unit contaminated or partially blocked.
| |
The air filter is dirty.
| |

| |
Timer is activated.
| |
| Outdoor unit or indoor unit starts and stops continuously. | Insufficient refrigerant in the system. Too much refrigerant in the system.
|
Moisture or impurities in the refrigerant circuit.
