Installing, starting up, and servicing air- conditioning equipment
can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical components,
and equipment location (roofs, elevated structures, etc.).
Only trained, qualified installers and service mechanics should
install, start-up, and service this equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such
as cleaning coils. All other operations should be performed by
trained service personnel.
When working on the equipment, observe precautions in the
literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the
equipment.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Keep
quenching cloth and fire extinguisher nearby when brazing. Use
care in handling, rigging, and setting bulky equipment.
Read these instructions thoroughly and follow all warnings or
cautions included in literature and attached to the unit. Consult
local building codes and current editions of the National Electrical
Code ( NEC ) NFPA 70. In Canada, refer to current editions of the
Canadian electrical code CSA 22.1.
!
Recognize safety information. This is the safety- alert symbol
When you see this symbol on the unit and in instructions or
manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand
these signal words: DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION.
These words are used with the safety- alert symbol. DANGER
identifies the most serious hazards which will result in severe
personal injury or death. WARNING signifies hazards which could
result in personal injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify
unsafe practices which may result in minor personal injury or
product and property damage. NOTE is used to highlight
suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, or
operation.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal
injury or death.
Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, main
electrical disconnect switch must be in the OFF
position. There may be more than 1 disconnect switch.
Lock out and tag switch with a suitable warning label.
!
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
Do not bury more than 36 in. (914 mm) of refrigerant pipe
in the ground. If any section of pipe is buried, there must be
.
a 6 in. (152 mm) vertical rise to the valve connections on
the outdoor units. If more than the recommended length is
buried, refrigerant may migrate to the cooler buried section
during extended periods of system shutdown. This causes
refrigerant slugging and could possibly damage the
compressor at start- up.
WARNING
CAUTION
GENERAL
These instructions cover the inst allati on, start-up and servic i ng of the
multi-zone outdoor unit connec t ed to up to nine indoor fan coil units .
For approved combinations, please refer to the Product Data.

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage
or improper operation.
S Be sure to comply with local codes while running wire from
indoor unit to outdoor unit.
S Every wire must be connected firmly. Loose wiring may
cause terminal to overheat or result in unit malfunction. A
fire hazard may also exist. Therefore, be sure all wiring is
tightly connected.
S No wire should be allowed to touch refrigerant tubing,
compressor or any moving parts.
S Disconnecting means must be provided and shall be located
within sight and readily accessible from the air conditioner.
S Connecting cable with conduit shall be routed through hole
in the conduit panel.
All wires must be sized per NEC (National Electrical Code) or
CEC (Canadian Electrical Code) and local codes. Use Electrical
Data table MCA (minimum circuit amps) and MOCP (maximum
over current protection) to correctly size the wires and the
disconnect fuse or breakers respectively.
Per caution note, only copper conductors with a minimum 300
volt rating and 2/64- inch thick insulation must be used. The u se
of BX cable is not recommended.
