Installation Check
How to Secure the Drain Pipe
1.To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed securely and firmly.
2.Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine directly on the unit.
3.The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for at least 30cm and there should be no obstacles, such as a fence or wall, within 50cm from the back of the cabinet because it will prevent heat radiation of the condenser. Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
CAUTION: All side louvers of the cabinet
must remain exposed to the outside of the structure.
4.Install the unit a little slanted so the back is slightly lower than the front (about 10~15mm). This will help force con­densed water to the outside.
5.Install the unit from the bottom about 75~150cm above the floor level.
The setting conditions must be checked prior to initial starting. The following items are especially important checking points when the installation is finished.
1. Grounding wire (Green or Green and Yellow) is provided in the power cord. The green wire must be grounded.
2. Connect to a single-outlet 15A circuit.
(or 20A circuit for Electric Heater Model)
3. To avoid vibration or noise, make sure the air conditioner is installed securely.
4 Avoid placing furniture or draperies in front of the air inlet and outlet.
In humid weather, excess water may cause the BASE PAN to overflow. To drain the water, remove the DRAIN CAP and secure the DRAIN PIPE to the rear hole of the BASE PAN. Press the drain pipe into the hole by pushing down and away from the fins to avoid injury.
Optional
1. Install the drain pan over the corner of the cabinet where you removed the plug with 4 (or 2) screws.
2. Connect the drain hose to the outlet located at the bottom of the drain pan. You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs. (Drain hose is not supplied).
3. Select the most appropriate connection from among the following figures (by considering the hole of the unit) to fit drain pan to your own unit.

Replacement of the refrigeration cycle.
1. When replacing the refrigeration cycle, be sure to Discharge the refrigerant system using a Freon
TM
recovery System. If there is no valve to attach the recovery system, install one (such as a WATCO A-1) before venting the FreonTM. Leave the valve in place after servicing the system.
2. After discharging the unit completely, remove the desired component, and unbraze the pinch-off tubes.
3. Braze service valves into the pinch-off tube ports, leaving the valves open.
4. Braze the pinch-off tubes with Service valves.
5. Evacuate as follows.
1) Connect the vacuum pump, as illustrated figure
33A.
2) Start the vacuum pump, slowly open manifold valves A and B with two full turns counterclockwise and leave the valves open. The vacuum pump is now pulling through valves A and B up to valve C by means of the manifold
and entire system.
CAUTION: If high vacuum equip-
ment is used, just crack valves A and B for a few minutes, then open slowly with the two full turns counterclockwise. This will keep oil from foaming and being drawn into the vacuum pump.
3) Operate the vacuum pump vaccum for 20 to 30 minutes, until 600 microns of vaccum is obtained. Close valves A and B, and observe vacuum gauge for a few minutes. A rise in pressure would indi­cate a possible leak or moisture remaining in the system. With valves A and B closed, stop the vac­uum pump.
4) Remove the hose from the vacuum pump and place it on the charging cylinder. See figure 33B. Open valve C. Discharge the line at the manifold connection.
5) The system is now ready for final charging.
6. Recharge as follows :
1) Refrigeration cycle systems are charged from the High-side. If the total charge cannot be put in the High-side, the balance will be put in the suction line through the access valve which you installed as the system was opened.
2) Connect the charging cylinder as shown in figure 33B. With valve C open, discharge the hose at the mani­fold connection.
3) Open valve A and allow the proper charge to enter the system. Valve B is still closed.
4) If more charge is required, the high-side will not take it. Close valve A.
5) With the unit running, open valve B and add the balance of the charge.
a. Do not add the liquid refrigerant to the Low-
side.
b. Watch the Low-side gauge; allow pressure to
rise to 30 lbs (0.2Mp). c. Turn off valve B and allow pressure to drop. d. Repeat steps b. and c. until the balance of the
charge is in the system.
6) When satisfied the unit is operating correctly, use the pinch-off tool with the unit still running and clamp on to the pinch-off tube. Using a tube cutter, cut the pinch-off tube about 2 inches from the pinch-off tool. Use sil-fos brazing rod and braze pinch-off tube closed. Turn off the unit, allow it to set for a while, and then test the leakage of the pinch-off connection.

Check the compressor overload, if externally mounted. Replace if open. (If the compressor tem­perature is high, remove the overload, cool it, and retest.)
Check the voltage. If not within limits, call an electrician.
Check overload, if externally mounted. Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature is high, remove the overload, cool, and retest.)
If not running, determine the cause. Replace if required.
Remove the cabinet. inspect the interior surface of the condenser; if restricted, clean carefully with a vacuum cleaner (do not damage fins) or brush. Clean the interior base before reassembling.
If condenser fins are closed over a large area on the coil surface, head pressures will increase, causing the compressor to overload. Straighten the fins or replace the coil.
Test capacitor. Check the terminals. If loose, repair or replace. Check the system for a restriction. If restricted, clean of replace. Close if open. Determine if the unit is properly sized for the area
to be cooled. Check the set screw or clamp. If loose or missing,
correct. If the turbo or fan is hitting air guide, rearrange the air handling parts.
Remove the cabinet carefully and rearrange tubing not to contact cabinet, compressor, shroud, and barrier.
