5.4 Installation for the first time
Air and moisture in the refrigerant system have
undesirable effects as below:
Pressure in the system rises.
Operating current rises.
Cooling or heating efficiency drops.
Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may
freeze and block capillary tubing.
Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the
refrigerant system.
Therefore, the indoor units and the pipes
between indoor and outdoor units must be leak
tested and evacuated to remove gas and
moisture from the system.
Gas leak check (Soap water method):
Apply soap water or a liquid neutral
detergent on the indoor unit connections or
outdoor unit connections by a soft brush to
check for leakage of the connecting points of
the piping. If bubbles come out, the pipes have
leakage.

only mode for a while, then low heat operation
and finally runs in fan only again. This function
can keep the inside of indoor unit dry and
prevent breeding of mold.
7.4.12 Follow me(optional)
1) If the indoor PCB receives the signal which
results from pressing the FOLLOW ME button
on remote controller, the buzzer will emit a
sound and this indicates the follow me function
is initiated. But when the indoor PCB receives
signal which sent from remote controller every
3 minutes, the buzzer will not respond. When
the unit is running with follow me function, the
PCB will control the unit according to the
temperature from follow me signal, and the
temperature collection function of room
temperature sensor will be shielded, but the
error detective function of room temperature
sensor will be still valid.
2) When the follow me function is available,
the PCB will control the unit according to the
room temperature from the remote controller
and the setting temperature.
3) The PCB will take action to the mode
change information from remote controller
signal, but it will not affected by the setting
temperature.
4) When the unit is running with follow me
function, if the PCB doesn’t receive any signal
from remote controller for 7 minutes or pressing
FOLLOW ME button again, the follow me
function will be turned off automatically, and the
temperature will control the unit according to
the room temperature detected from its own
room temperature sensor and setting
