• Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during operation. If the refrigerant comes in contact with a flame, poisonous gases will be released.

Caution:

• Perform grounding. Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe, water pipe arrester or telephone ground wire. Defective grounding could cause an electric shock.

• Do not install the unit in a place where an inflammable gas leaks. If gas leaks and accumulates in the area surrounding the unit, it could cause an explosion.

• Install a ground leakage breaker depending on the installation place (where it is humid). If a ground leakage breaker is not installed, it could cause an electric shock.

2. Selecting the installation location

2.1. Indoor unit

• Where airflow is not blocked.

• Where cool air spreads over the entire room.

• Where it is not exposed to direct sunshine.

• At a distance 1 m or more away from your TV and radio (to prevent picture from being distorted or noise from being generated).

• In a place as far away as possible from fluorescent and incandescent lights (so the infrared remote control can operate the air conditioner normally).

2.2. Outdoor unit

• Where it is not exposed to strong wind.

• Where airflow is good and dustless.

• Where it is not exposed to rain and direct sunshine.

• Where neighbours are not annoyed by operation sound or hot air.

• Where rigid wall or support is available to prevent the increase of operation sound or vibration.

• Where there is no risk of combustible gas leakage.

• When installing the unit at a high level, be sure to fix the unit legs.

• Where it is at least 3 m away from the antenna of TV set or radio. (Otherwise, images would be disturbed or noise would be generated.)

• Perform the drainage/piping work securely according to the installation manual. If there is a defect in the drainage/piping work, water could drop from the unit and household goods could be wet and damaged.

• Fasten a flare nut with a torque wrench as specified in this manual. When fastened too tight, a flare nut may broken after a long period and cause a leakage of refrigerant.

• Where the air filter can be removed and replaced easily.

FUNCTION

10.1. Before test run

s After completing installation and the wiring and piping of the indoor and outdoor

units, check for refrigerant leakage, looseness in the power supply or control wiring, wrong polarity, and no disconnection of one phase in the supply.

s Use a 500-volt megohmmeter to check that the resistance between the power

supply terminals and ground is at least 1.0 MΩ.

s Do not carry out this test on the control wiring (low voltage circuit) termi-

nals.

Warning: Do not use the air conditioner if the insulation resistance is less than 1.0 MΩ. Insulation resistance

After installation or after the power source to the unit has been cut for an extended period, the insulation resistance will drop below 1 MΩ due to refrigerant accumulating in the compressor. This is not a malfunction. Perform the following procedures.

1. Remove the wires from the compressor and measure the insulation resistance of

the compressor.

2. If the insulation resistance is below 1 MΩ, the compressor is faulty or the resist-

ance dropped due the accumulation of refrigerant in the compressor.

Fig. 10-1

3. After connecting the wires to the compressor, the compressor will start to warm up after power is supplied. After supplying power for the times indicated below, measure the insulation resistance again.

• The insulation resistance drops due to accumulation of refrigerant in the com-

pressor. The resistance will rise above 1 MΩ after the compressor is warmed up for two to three hours. (The time necessary to warm up the compressor varies according to atmospheric conditions and refrigerant accumulation.)

• To operate the compressor with refrigerant accumulated in the compressor,

the compressor must be warmed up at least 12 hours to prevent breakdown.

4. If the insulation resistance rises above 1 MΩ, the compressor is not faulty.

Caution:

• The compressor will not operate unless the power supply phase connection

is correct.

• Turn on the power at least 12 hours before starting operation.

- Starting operation immediately after turning on the main power switch can result in

severe damage to internal parts. Keep the power switch turned on during the operational season.

10.2. Test run

The following 3 methods are available.

10.2.1. Using wired remote controller (Fig. 10-1)

10.4. AUTO RESTART FUNCTION

This model is equipped with the AUTO RESTART FUNCTION. When the indoor unit is controlled with the remote controller, the operation mode, set temperature, and the fan speed are memorized by the indoor controller board. The auto restart function sets to work the moment the power has restored after power failure, then, the unit will restart automatically.

Notes:

• The operation settings are memorized when 10 seconds have passed after the remote controller was operated.

Fig. 10-3

11.Maintenance

• If the main power is turned off or a power failure occurs while AUTO START/ STOP timer is active, the timer setting is cancelled. As this model is equipped with the auto restart function, the air conditioner should start operating at the same time that a power has restored.

• If the unit has been off with the remote controller before power failure, the auto restart function does not work as the power button of the remote controller is off.

• To prevent breaker off due to the rush of starting current, systematize other home appliance not to turn on at the same time.

10.5. Indoor temperature position change function

(Fig. 10-3)

This model is equipped with the indoor temperature position change function. Detection of room temperature can be changed into remote controller’s internal sensor.

11.1. Gas charge (Fig. 11-1)

1. Connect gas cylinder to the service port of stop valve (3-way).

2. Execute air purge of the pipe (or hose) coming from refrigerant gas cylinder.

3. Replenish specified amount of refrigerant, while running the air conditioner

for cooling.

Note:

In case of adding refrigerant, comply with the quantity specified for the refrigerating cycle.

Caution:

• Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.

Take care not to discharge refrigerant into the atmosphere during installation, reinstallation, or repairs to the refrigerant circuit.

• For additional charging, charge the refrigerant from liquid phase of the gas

cylinder. If the refrigerant is charged from the gas phase, composition change may occur in the refrigerant inside the cylinder and the outdoor unit. In this case, ability of the refrigerating cycle decreases or normal operation can be impossible. However, charging the liquid refrigerant all at once may cause the compressor to be locked. Thus, charge the refrigerant slowly.

To maintain the high pressure of the gas cylinder, warm the gas cylinder with warm water (under 40°C) during cold season. But never use naked fire or steam.
