4. Engage authorized dealer or specialist for installation and servicing. If installation of servicing done by the user is defective, it will cause water
leakage, electrical shock or fire.
5. Install according to this installation instructions strictly. If installation is defective, it will cause water leakage, electric shock or fire.
6. Use the attached accessories parts and specified parts for installation and servicing. Otherwise, it will cause the set to fall, water leakage, fire
or electrical shock.
7. Install at a strong and firm location which is able to withstand the set’s weight. If the strength is not enough or installation is not properly done,
the set will drop and cause injury.
8. For electrical work, follow the local national wiring standard, regulation and the installation instruction. An independent circuit and single outlet
must be used. If electrical circuit capacity is not enough or defect found in electrical work, it will cause electrical shock or fire.
9. This equipment is strongly recommended to be installed with Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) or Residual Current Device (RCD).
Otherwise, it may cause electrical shock and fire in case equipment breakdown or insulation breakdown.
10. Do not use joint cable for indoor/outdoor connection cable. Use the specified indoor/outdoor connection cable, refer to installation instruction
CONNECT THE CABLE TO THE INDOOR UNIT and connect tightly for indoor/outdoor connection. Clamp the cable so that no external force
will be acted on the terminal. If connecting or fixing is not perfect, it will cause heat up or fire at the connection.
11. Wire routing must be properly arranged so that control board cover is fixed properly. If control board cover is not fixed perfectly, it will cause
heat-up or fire at the connection point of terminal, fire or electrical shock.
12. When install or relocate air conditioner, do not let any substance other than the specified refrigerant, eg. air etc. mix into refrigeration cycle
(piping). (Mixing of air etc. will cause abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury etc.).
13. Do not install outdoor unit near handrail of veranda. When installing air-conditioner unit at veranda of high rise building, child may
climb up to outdoor unit and cross over the handrail and causing accident.
14. This equipment must be properly earthed. Earth line must not be connected to gas pipe, water pipe, earth of lightning rod and
telephone. Otherwise, it may cause electrical shock in case equipment breakdown or insulation breakdown.
15. Keep away from small children, the thin film may cling to nose and mouth and prevent breathing.
16. Do not use unspecified cord, modified cord, joint cord or extension cord for power supply cord. Do not share the single outlet with
other electrical appliances. Poor contact, poor insulation or over current will cause electrical shock or fire.
17. Tighten the flare nut with torque wrench according to specified method. If the flare nut is over-tightened, after a long period, the flare may
break and cause refrigerant gas leakage.
18. For R410A model, use piping, flare nut and tools which is specified for R410A refrigerant. Using of existing (R22) piping, flare nut
and tools may cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigerant cycle (piping), and possibly result in explosion and injury.
Thickness or copper pipes used with R410A must be more than 1/32" (0.8 mm). Never use copper pipes thinner than 1/32" (0.8 mm).
It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 0.0008 oz/ft (40 mg/10 m).

19. During installation, install the refrigerant piping properly before run the compressor. (Operation of compressor without fixing refrigeration piping
and valves at opened condition will cause suck-in of air, abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury etc.).
20. During pump down operation, stop the compressor before remove the refrigeration piping. (Removal of refrigeration piping while compressor is
operating and valves are opened condition will cause suck-in of air, abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury
etc.).
21. After completion of installation or service, confirm there is no leakage of refrigerant gas. It may generate toxic gas when the refrigerant
contacts with fire.
22. Ventilate if there is refrigerant gas leakage during operation. It may cause toxic gas when the refrigerant contacts with fire.
23. Do not insert your fingers or other objects into the unit, high speed rotating fan may cause injury.
24. Must not use other parts except original parts describe in catalog and manual.
25. Using of refrigerant other than the specified type may cause product damage, burst and injury etc.
1. Do not install the unit at place where leakage of flammable gas may occur. In case gas leaks and accumulates at surrounding of the
unit, it may cause fire.
2. Carry out drainage piping as mentioned in installation instructions. If drainage is not perfect, water may enter the room and damage
the furniture.
3. Tighten the flare nut with torque wrench according to specified method. If the flare nut is over-tightened, after a long period, the flare
may break and cause refrigerant gas leakage.
4. Do not touch outdoor unit air inlet and aluminium fin. It may cause injury.
WARNING
CAUTION
5. Select an installation location which is easy for maintenance.
6. Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; typically the melting point is 50°F – 70°F (30°C – 40°C) higher. Please use
a high temperature solder iron. In case of the soldering iron with temperature control, please set it to 700 ± 20°F (370 ± 10°C).
Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100°F / 600°C).
7. Power supply connection to the room air conditioner.
Power supply cord shall be UL listed or CSA approved 3 conductor with minimum AWG14 (For E9RK and E12RK) and AWG12

13. Operation Control
13.1 Basic Function
Inverter control, which equipped with a microcomputer in determining the most suitable operation mode as time
passes, automatically adjusts output power for maximum comfort always. In order to achieve the suitable operation
mode, the microcomputer maintains the set temperature by measuring the temperature of the environment and
performing temperature shifting. The compressor at outdoor unit is operating following the frequency instructed by
the microcomputer at indoor unit that judging the condition according to internal setting temperature and intake air
temperature.
13.1.1 Internal Setting Temperature
Once the operation starts, remote control setting temperature will be taken as base value for temperature shifting
processes. These shifting processes are depending on the air conditioner settings and the operation environment.
The final shifted value will be used as internal setting temperature and it is updated continuously whenever the
electrical power is supplied to the unit.

18.4.22 F90 (Power Factor Correction Protection)
Malfunction Decision Conditions
To maintain DC voltage level supply to power transistor.
To detect high DC voltage level after rectification.
Malfunction Caused
During startup and operation of cooling and heating, when Power Factor Correction (PFC) protection circuitry at
the outdoor unit main PCB senses abnormal DC voltage level for power transistors.
When DC voltage detected is LOW, transistor switching will turn ON by controller to push-up the DC level.
When DC voltage detected is HIGH (391Vdc – 425Vdc), active LOW signal will send by the controller to turn OFF
relay RY-C.
Troubleshooting
When abnormality indication starts again.
Reset the error code and turn on the unit again.
Is AC power supply normal fluctuation?
YES
Verify PFC abnormality by measuring DC voltage between
DCP(+) and DCN(-) at the capacitor PCB.
Is the DC voltage between DCP(+) and DCN(-) normal?
NO (391.2Vdc ~ 425Vdc)
Confirm the DC voltage between CN-FM 1 and 4 when
compressor is running. Normal voltage range should be
between 265-325Vdc.
Is the DC voltage between CN-FM1 and 4 of the outdoor fan
motor normal?
Check the compressor winding resistance:
● Turn off the power and disconnect the harnesses U, V,
and W.
● Measure the winding resistance between U-V, V-W, and
W-U.
Are the compressor’s winding resistance (U-V, V-W, U-W)
uniform?
YES
NO
YES (~280Vdc)
NO
NO
