Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply
circuits must be disconnected.
2-2. CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT
Cautions for units utilizing refrigerant R410A
Use new refrigerant pipes.
In case of using the existing pipes for R22, be careful with
the followings.
· Be sure to clean the pipes and make sure that the insides
of the pipes are clean.
· Change flare nut to the one provided with this product.
Use a newly flared pipe.
· Avoid using thin pipes.
Make sure that the inside and outside of refrigerant piping is clean and it has no contaminants
such as sulfur, oxides, dirt, shaving particles, etc,
which are hazard to refrigerant cycle.
In addition, use pipes with specified thickness.
Contamination inside refrigerant piping can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Store the piping to be used indoors during
installation, and both ends of the piping sealed
until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc.
in their packaging.)
If dirt, dust or moisture enters into refrigerant cycle, that can
cause deterioration of refrigerant oil or malfunction of compressor.
Do not use refrigerant other than R410A.
If other refrigerant (R22 etc.) is used, chlorine in refrigerant can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Use a vacuum pump with a reverse flow check
valve.
Vacuum pump oil may flow back into refrigerant cycle and
that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Use the following tools specifically designed for
use with R410A refrigerant.
The following tools are necessary to use R410A refrigerant.
If dirt, dust or moisture enters into refrigerant cycle, that can
cause deterioration of refrigerant oil or malfunction of compressor.
The refrigerant oil applied to flare and flange
connections must be ester oil, ether oil or
alkylbenzene oil in a small amount.
If large amount of mineral oil enters, that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Charge refrigerant from liquid phase of gas
cylinder.
If the refrigerant is charged from gas phase, composition
change may occur in refrigerant and the efficiency will be
lowered.
Do not use a charging cylinder.
If a charging cylinder is used, the composition of refrigerant will change and the efficiency will be lowered.
Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during
operation. If refrigerant comes into contact with
a flame, poisonous gases will be released.
3
[1] Cautions for service
(1) Perform service after recovering the refrigerant left in unit completely.
(2) Do not release refrigerant in the air.
(3) After completing service, charge the cycle with specified amount of refrigerant.
(4) When performing service, install a filter drier simultaneously.
Be sure to use a filter drier for new refrigerant.
[2] Additional refrigerant charge
When charging directly from cylinder
· Check that cylinder for R410A on the market is syphon type.
· Charging should be performed with the cylinder of syphon stood vertically. (Refrigerant is charged from liquid phase.)

2-3. CAUTIONS FOR REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK
New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410A is
same as for R22, exclusive tools are necessary so as not to mix with different kind of refrigerant. Furthermore as the
working pressure of R410A is 1.6 times higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
1 Thickness of pipes
Because the working pressure of R410A is higher compared to R22, be sure to use refrigerant piping with thickness
shown below. (Never use pipes of 0.7 mm [7/256 inch] or below.)

2 Dimensions of flare cutting and flare nut
The component molecules in HFC refrigerant are smaller compared to conventional refrigerants. In addition to that,
R410A is a refrigerant, which has higher risk of leakage because of its working pressure is higher than that of other
refrigerants. Therefore, to enhance air tightness and intensity, flare cutting dimension of copper pipe for R410A has
been specified separately from the dimensions for other refrigerants as shown below. The dimension B of flare nut for
R410A also has partly been changed to increase intensity as shown below. Set copper pipe correctly referring to copper pipe flaring dimensions for R410A below. For 1/2 and 5/8 inch, the dimension B changes.
Use torque wrench corresponding to each dimension.

(Points to note)
(1) Outside the unit, transmission wires should stay away from electric wires in order to prevent electromagnetic noise from
making an influence on the signal communication. Place them at intervals of more than 5 cm. Do not put them in the same
conduit tube.
(2) Terminal block (TB7) for transmission wires should never be connected to 208/230V power supply. If it is connected,
electronic parts on M-NET P.C. board may burn out.
(3) Use 2-core × 1.25mm² [AWG16] shield wire (CVVS, CPEVS) for the transmission wire. Transmission signals may not be
sent or received normally if different types of transmission wires are put together in the same multi-conductor cable. Never
do this because this may cause a malfunction.

It would be ok if M-NET wire (non-polar, 2-cores) is arranged in addition to the wiring for A-control.
(4) Ground only one of any appliances through M-NET transmission wire (shield wire). Communication error may occur due to
the influence of electromagnetic noise.
“Ed” error will appear on the LED display of outdoor unit.

If there are more than 2 grounding spots on the shield wire, noise may enter into the shield wire because the ground wire
and shield wire form one circuit and the electric potential difference occurs due to the impedance difference among ground-
ing spots. In case of single spot grounding, noise does not enter into the shield wire because the ground wire and shield
wire do not form one circuit.
To avoid communication errors caused by noise, make sure to observe the single spot grounding method described in the
installation manual.

8-4-1. M-NET address setting
In A-control models, M-NET address and refrigerant address should be set only for the outdoor unit. Similar to CITY MULTI
series, there is no need to set the address of outdoor unit and remote controller. To construct a central control system, the
setting of M-NET address should be conducted only upon the outdoor unit. The setting range should be 1 to 50 (the same as
that of the indoor unit in CITY MULTI system), and the address number should be consecutively set in a same group.
Address number can be set by using rotary switches
(SW11 for ones digit and SW12 for tens digit), which
is located on the M-NET board of outdoor unit.
(Initial setting: all addresses are set to “0”.)

w In group B, M-NET address of the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00” is not set to the minimum in the group. As
“03” is right for this situation, the setting is wrong. Taking group A as a good sample, set the minimum M-NET address in
the group for the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00”.
Perform the following procedures to recover the refrigerant when moving the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
1 Turn on the power supply (circuit breaker).
wWhen power is supplied, make sure that “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is not displayed on the remote controller. If
“CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is displayed, the refrigerant collecting (pump down) cannot be completed normally.
2 After the liquid stop valve is closed, set the SWP switch on the control board of the outdoor unit to ON. The compressor
(outdoor unit) and ventilators (indoor and outdoor units) start operating and refrigerant recovering operation begins. LED1
and LED2 on the control board of the outdoor unit are lit.
wSet the SWP switch (push-button type) to ON in order to perform refrigerant recovering operation only when the unit is
stopped. However, refrigerant recovering operation cannot be performed until compressor stops even if the unit is stopped.
Wait 3 minutes until compressor stops and set the SWP switch to ON again.
3 Because the unit automatically stops in about 2 to 3 minutes after the refrigerant recovering operation (LED1 is not lit and
LED2 is lit), be sure to quickly close the gas stop valve.
wIn case the outdoor unit is stopped when LED1 is lit and LED2 is not lit, open the liquid stop valve completely, and then
repeat step 2 3 minutes later.
wIf the refrigerant recovering operation has been completed normally (LED1 is not lit and LED2 is lit), the unit will remain
stopped until the power supply is turned off.
4 Turn off the power supply (circuit breaker.)
2. Start and finish of test run
• Operation from the indoor unit
Execute the test run using the installation manual for the indoor unit.
• Operation from the outdoor unit
By using the DIP switch SW4 on the control board of outdoor unit, test run can be started and finished, and its operation
mode (cooling/heating) can be set up.
1 Set the operation mode (cooling/heating) using SW4-2.
2 Turn on SW4-1 to start test run with the operation mode set by SW4-2.
3 Turn off SW4-1 to finish the test run.
• There may be a faint knocking sound around the machine room after power is supplied, but this is
not a problem with the product because the linear expansion valve is just moving to adjust opening pulse.
• There may be a knocking sound around the machine room for several seconds after compressor
starts operating. But this is not a problem with product because the check valve itself generates
the sound because pressure difference is small in the refrigerant circuit.

10-2. CHECK POINT UNDER TEST RUN
(1) Before test run
• After installation of indoor and outdoor units, piping work and electric wiring work, re-check that there is no refrigerant leak-
age, loosened connections and incorrect polarity.
• Measure impedance between the ground and the power supply terminal block (L1, L2) on the outdoor unit by 500V Megger
and check that it is 1.0M" or over.
w Do not use 500V Megger to indoor/outdoor connecting wire terminal block (S1, S2, S3) and remote controller terminal
block (1, 2). This may cause malfunction.
• Make sure that test run switch (SW4) is set to OFF before turning on power supply.
• Turn on power supply 12 hours before test run in order to protect compressor.
• For specific models which requires higher ceiling settings or auto-recovery feature from power failure, make proper changes
of settings referring to the description of “12. FUNCTION SETTING”.
Make sure to read operation manual before test run. (Especially items to secure safety.)

Check if power is supplied to air conditioner.
Nothing appears on the display unless power is
supplied.
Wait around 3 minutes to restart unit.
The air conditioner is in a state of being protected
by the microprocessor’s directive. Once the
compressor is stopped, the unit cannot be
restarted for 3 minutes. This control is also applied
when the unit is turned on and off by remote
controller or thermostat.
Error code will be displayed if any protection
devices of the air conditioner are actuated.
What is error code?
Wait around 2 minutes.
An automatic startup test will be conducted for
2 minutes when power is supplied to the air
conditioner. “PLEASE WAIT” will be kept being
displayed while that time.
This indicates that it is time to clean the air filters.
Clean the air filters. Press the FILTER button on
the remote controller twice to clear “FILTER” from
the display.
See the operation manual that came with the
product for how to clean the filters.
This is displayed when the unit starts HEAT
operation, when the thermostat puts the
compressor in operation mode, or when the
outdoor unit ends DEFROST operation and
returns to HEAT operation.
The display will automatically disappear around
10 minutes later.
While “STANDBY” is displayed on the remote
controller, the airflow amount will be restricted
because the indoor unit’s heat exchanger is not
fully heated up. In addition to that, the up/down
vane will be automatically set to horizontal blow
in order to prevent cold air from directly blowing
out to human body. The up/down vane will return
to the setting specified by the remote controller
when “STANDBY” is released.
The outdoor unit gets frosted when the outside
temperature is low and the humidity is high.
“DEFROST” indicates the DEFROST operation
is being performed to melt this frost. The
DEFROST operation ends in around 10 minutes
(at most 15 minutes).
During the DEFROST operation, the indoor unit’s
heat exchanger becomes cold, so the blower is
stopped. The up/down vane will be automatically
set to horizontal blow in order to prevent cold air
from directly blowing out to human body. The
display will turn into “STANDBY” when DEFROST
operation ends.
Refer to “SELF-DIAGNOSIS

cannot be set by the remote controller during DRY
operation.
This is not a malfunction.
1) When the HEAT operation starts, to prevent the
unit from blowing cold air, the fan speed is
gradually increased from 0 to the set speed,
in proportion to the temperature rise of the
discharged air.
2) When the room temperature reaches the set
temperature and the outdoor unit stops,
the unit starts the LOW AIR operation.
3) During the HEAT operation, the DEFROST
operation is performed to defrost the outdoor

“1 Hr.” will be displayed on the remote controller if
the up/down vane is set to downward with the fan
speed set to be less than “LOW”.
In HEAT operation, the up/down vane is
automatically controlled according to the
temperature of the indoor unit’s heat exchanger.
In the following cases written below, the up/down
vane will be set to horizontal blow, and the setting
cannot be changed by remote controller.
1) At the beginning of the HEAT operation
2) While the outdoor unit is being stopped by
thermostat or when the outdoor unit gets started
to operate.
3) During DEFROST operation
The airflow direction will be back to the setting
of remote controller when the above situations
are released.
1) Check if the vane is set to a fixed position.
(Check if the vane motor connector is
removed.)
2) Check if the air conditioner has a function for
switching the air direction.
3) If the air conditioner doesn’t have that
function, “NOT AVAILABLE” will be displayed
on the remote controller when “AIR
DIRECTION” or “LOUVER” button is pressed.
Check if you set ON/OFF timer.
The air conditioner starts operating at the time
designated if ON timer has been set before.
Check if any operations are ordered by distant
control system or the central remote controller.
While “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED INDICATOR”
is displayed on the remote controller, the air
conditioner is under the control of external directive.
Check if power is recovered from power failure
(black out).
The units will automatically start operating when
power is recovered after power failure (black out)
occurs. This function is called “auto recovery
feature from power ”.
Check if you set ON/OFF timer.
The air conditioner stops operating at the time
designated if OFF timer has been set before.
Check if any operations are ordered by distant
control system or the central remote controller.
While “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED INDICATOR” is
displayed on the remote controller, the air conditioner is
under the control of external directive.

<How to detach the coil>
Hold the lower part of the main body (shown as A) firmly so that
the main body does not move and detach the coil by pulling it
upward.
Be sure to detach the coil holding main body firmly. Otherwise
pipes can bend due to pressure.
Stopper
Main body
<How to attach the coil>
Hold the lower part of the main body (shown as A) firmly so that
the main body does not move and attach the coil by inserting it
downward into the main body. Then securely attach the coil stopper to pipe B. (At this time, be careful that stress is not added to
lead wire and main body is not wound by lead wire.) If the stopper is not firmly attached to pipe B, coil may be detached from
the main body and that can cause defective operation of linear
expansion valve.
To prevent piping stress, be sure to attach the coil holding the
main body of linear expansion valve firmly. Otherwise pipe may
break.

(2) Check the following items and cautions for emergency operation
1 Make sure that there is no abnormality in outdoor unit other than the above abnormalities. (Emergency operation will not
be available when error codes other than the above are indicated.)
2 For emergency operation, it is necessary to set the emergency operation switch (SWE) on indoor controller board. Refer
to the electrical wiring diagram of indoor unit for how to set the indoor unit.)
3 During emergency operation, the air-conditioner will continuously be operated by supplying power and stopping it: It can
not be turned on or off by remote control, and temperature control is not possible.
4 Do not perform emergency heating operation for an extended period of time: If the outdoor unit starts defrosting during
this period, cold air will blow out from the indoor unit.
5 Do not perform emergency cooling operation for more than 10 hours: Neglecting this could result in freezing the heat
exchanger in indoor unit.
(3) Emergency operation procedure
1 Turn the main power supply off.
2 Turn on the emergency operation switch (SWE) on indoor controller board.
3 Set the shorting pins of emergency operation connector (CN31) on outdoor controller board to ON.

Special function
(a) Low-level sound priority mode (Local wiring)
Unit enters into Low-level sound priority mode by external signal input setting.
Inputting external signals to the outdoor unit decreases the outdoor unit operation sound 3 to 4 dB lower than that of usual.
Adding a commercial timer or on-off switch contactor setting to the CNDM connector which is optional contactor for demand
input located on the outdoor controller board enables to control compressor operation frequency.
W The performance depends on the load of conditioned outdoor temperature.

(b) Demand control (Local wiring)
Demand control is available by external input. In this mode, power consumption is decreased within the range of usual
0~100%.
How to wire
Basically, the wiring is the same as (a).
Connect an SW1 which is procured at field to the between Orange and Red (1 and 3) of the Adaptor for external signal
input (PAC-SC36NA), and insulate the tip of the brown lead wire.
