Adoption of New Refrigerant This Air Conditioner is a new type which adopts a new refrigerant HFC (R410A) instead of the conventional refrigerant R22 in order to prevent destruction of the ozone layer. WARNING Cleaning of the air filter and other parts of the air filter involves dangerous work in high places, so be sure to have a service person do it.
SAFETY CAUTION The important contents concerned to the safety are described on the product itself and on this Service Manual. Please read this Service Manual after understanding the described items thoroughly in the following contents (Indications/Illustrated marks), and keep them. [Explanation of indications] Indication Explanation...

WARNING Before troubleshooting or repair work, check the earth wire is connected to the earth terminals of the main unit, otherwise an electric shock is caused when a leak occurs. If the earth wire is not correctly connected, contact an electric engineer for rework. Check earth wires.
Page 6
WARNING After the work has finished, be sure to use an insulation tester set (500V Megger) to check the resistance is 2MΩ or more between the charge section and the non-charge metal section (Earth position). If the resistance value is low, a disaster such as a leak or electric shock is caused at user’s Insulator check side.

• New Refrigerant (R410A) This air conditioner adopts a new HFC type refrigerant (R410A) which does not deplete the ozone layer. 1. Safety Caution Concerned to New Refrigerant The pressure of R410A is high 1.6 times of that of the former refrigerant (R22). Accompanied with change of refrigerant, the refrigerating oil has been also changed.

6-3. Tools 6-3-1. Required Tools Refer to the “4. Tools” (Page 8) 6-4. Recharging of Refrigerant When it is necessary to recharge refrigerant, charge the specified amount of new refrigerant according to the following steps. Recover the refrigerant, and check no refrigerant remains in the equipment.
1) Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged. 2) When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down. It is necessary for charging refrigerant under condition of liquid because R410A is mixed type of refrigerant. Accordingly, when charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the equipment, charge it turning the cylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.
