ephone ground. Defective grounding could cause electric shock.
N Do not damage the wires.
Damaged wires could cause fire.
N Be sure to shut off the main power when setting up the indoor P.C. board or
wiring.
Failure to do so could cause electric shock.
N Use the specified wires to securely connect the indoor and outdoor units. At-
tach the wires firmly to avoid applying stress to the terminal block.
Improper connection could cause fire.
N Do not install the unit in a place where flammable gas may leak.
If gas leaks and accumulates around the unit, it could cause an explosion.
N Do not use intermediate connection of the power cord or the extension cord.
Do not connect many devices to one AC outlet.
It could cause a fire or an electric shock.
N Use the parts provided or specified parts for the installation work.
The use of defective parts could cause an injury or leakage of water due to a fire,
an electric shock, the unit falling, etc.
N When plugging the power supply plug into the outlet, make sure that there is
no dust, blockage, or loose parts both in the outlet and on the plug. Verify that the power supply plug is completely in the outlet.
If there is dust, blockage, or loose parts on the power supply plug or the outlet, it could cause electric shock or fire. If loose parts are found on the power supply plug, replace it.

3-3. PIPE CONNECTION
• Fasten flare nut with a torque wrench as specified in the table above.
• When fastened too tight, flare nut may eventually break and cause refrigerant leakage.
Indoor unit connection
Connect both liquid and gas piping to indoor unit.
• Apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil (J) on the seat surface of pipe.
• To connect, first align the center, then tighten the first 3 to 4 turns of flare nut.
• Use tightening torque table above as a guideline for indoor unit side joints, and tighten using two wrenches. Excessive tightening damages the flare section.
Outdoor unit connection
Connect pipes to stop valve pipe joint of the outdoor unit following the same procedure detailed in Indoor unit connection.
• For tightening, use a torque wrench or spanner.
WARNING
When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes before starting the compressor.
3-4. INSULATION AND TAPING
1) Cover piping joints with pipe cover.
2) For outdoor unit side, insulate the piping, including valves.
3) Apply piping tape (G) starting from the connection on the outdoor unit.
• When piping has to be installed through a ceiling, closet or where the temperature
and humidity are high, use additional field-supplied insulation to prevent condensa­tion.
4. PURGING PROCEDURES, LEAK TEST, AND TEST RUN
4-1. PURGING PROCEDURES AND LEAK TEST
1) Remove service port cap of stop valve on the side of the outdoor unit gas pipe.
2) Connect gauge manifold valve and vacuum pump to service port of stop valve on the gas pipe side of the outdoor unit.
3) Run the vacuum pump 15 minutes or more.
4) Check the vacuum with the gauge manifold valve, then close it and shut off the vacuum pump.
5) Leave as it is for one or two minutes. Make sure pointer gauge manifold valve remains in the same position. Confirm that pressure gauge shows –0.101 MPa [Gauge] (–30 in.Hg [–760 mmHg]).
6) Quickly remove gauge manifold valve from service port of stop valve.
7) After refrigerant pipes are connected and evacuated, fully open all stop valves on both sides of gas pipe and liquid pipe. Operating the unit without fully opening the valves lowers the performance and causes problems.
8) Refer to 1-3. SPECIFICATIONS, and charge the prescribed amount of refrigerant if needed. Be sure to charge slowly with liquid refrigerant. Otherwise, composition of the refrigerant in the system may be changed and affect performance of the air conditioner.
9) Tighten cap of service port.
10) Conduct a leak test
