Important!
Please Read Before Starting
This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating
standards. As the installer or service person, it is an
important part of your job to install or service the system so it
operates safely and efficiently.
For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must:
Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.
Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.
Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.
Pay close attention to all warning and caution notices given
in this manual.
This symbol refers to a hazard or
WARNING
CAUTION
If Necessary, Get Help
These instructions are all you need for most installation
sites and maintenance conditions. If you require help for
a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or
your certified dealer for additional instructions.
In Case of Improper Installation
The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for
improper installation or maintenance service, including
failure to follow the instructions in this document.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
unsafe practice which can result
in severe personal injury or death.
This symbol refers to a hazard
or unsafe practice which can
result in personal injury or
product or property damage.
When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and
outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees
when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin
aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
When Installing
In a Ceiling or Wall
Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s
weight. It may be necessary to construct a strong wood or
metal frame to provide added support.
In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent
"sweating" that can cause dripping and water damage to walls
and floors.
In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a
solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents
water damage and abnormal vibration.
In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal
frame. Provide a suitable air baffle.
In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher than
drifting snow. Provide snow vents.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
•
Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
•
Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the
flare and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten
the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.
•
Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
When Servicing
WARNING
•
Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing
are completed or reconnected and checked.
•
Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this
system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and
inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
•
Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
•
Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause
overheating at connection points and a possible fire
hazard.
•
Install a protective leakage breaker depending on the

installation location (especially a damp or humid
location). If a leakage breaker is not installed, electric
shock can occur.
•
Turn the power off at the main power box (mains) before
opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and
wiring.
•
Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.
•
Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check
that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left inside
the unit being serviced.
Others
CAUTION
Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing the
•
refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on contact
with fire or heat, can produce dangerously toxic gas.
Confirm upon completing installation that no refrigerant gas
•
is leaking. If escaped gas comes in contact with a stove,
gas water heater, electric room heater or other heat source,
it can produce dangerously toxic gas.

Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing
IMPORTANT
Because capillary tubing is used in the outdoor unit, both the
wide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner become cold. To
prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of
condensation, both tubes must be well insulated with a
proper insulation material. The thickness of the insulation
should be a min.5/16"(8 mm).
After a tube has been insulated,
CAUTION
never try to bend it into a narrow
curve because it can cause the tube
to break or crack.

7-2-1. Current Control
The operating current may rise as a result of causes including increasing cooling loads or decreases in power
voltage. In these cases, the operating frequency is automatically reduced, or operation is stopped, in order to control
the operating current so that it is (20 A) or less.
As a result:
Power breakers and fuses will not be tripped.
•
Operation can continue during this period with somewhat reduced cooling capacity.
•
Operation at normal capacity is restored when the cause of the current rise is eliminated.

8. TROUBLESHOOTING
8-1. Precautions before Performing Inspection or Repair
Both the indoor unit and outdoor unit include electronic control circuits.
Be sure to pay attention to the following before inspecting or repairing the outdoorside electronic circuits.
High-capacity electrolytic capacitors are used inside the outdoor unit controller (inverter). They retain an
electrical charge (charging voltage DC 311 V) even after the power is turned OFF, and some time is required
for the charge to dissipate.
Be careful not to touch any electrified parts before the control circuit board Power Lamp (red) turns OFF.
If the outdoor control circuit board is normal, approximately 180 seconds will be required for the charge to
dissipate. However, allow at least 30 minutes for the charge to dissipate if it is thought there might be trouble
with the outdoor control circuit board.
For example, if the outdoor control circuit board fuse has blown, approximately 30 minutes will be required to
discharge the high-capacity electrolytic capacitors.

Check that the sensor is securely contained in the thermostat holder.
(8) Breaker
Check whether or not the breaker has been tripped.
Check that the breakers and fuses used are of the specified capacity.
Check that the breaker and its line are exclusive for A/C use.
(9) Refrigerant gas pressure
Start a COOL test run, and messure the temperatures of the A/C intake air and discharge air. Compare the values
with the performance charts.
If the values are higher than the performance charts:
Check for refrigerant shortage or blockage of the refrigerant circuit.
< Assessment of refrigerant shortage >
1. The pressure in the low-pressure section is 5 MPa or more below the value in the performance charts.
2. There is little condensation on the indoor heart exchanger, which overall appears dry.
< Distinguishing between refrigerant shortage and refrigerant circuit blockage >
If the pressure in the low-pressure section does not change when the circuit is charged 2 to 3 times with
refrigerant gas (0.44 lbs each time), or if the change is small, then the problem may not be
refrigerant shortage.
The problem may be a blockage of the refrigerant circuit.
1. Check that there is no internal leakage inside the 4-way valve:
At the low-pressure side tubing, check that there is no temperature difference between the intake and
discharge of the 4-way valve.
2. Check that the electric expansion valve is not blocked. Check as described on the preceding page.

8-5. Trouble Diagnosis of Fan Motor
This outdoor DC fan motor contains an internal control PCB. Therefore, it is not possible to measure the coil
resistance, and the following procedure should be used to check the motor.
Perform the trouble diagnosis by Test Run mode described on Installation Instructions of indoor unit.
Important:
[Trouble symptom 1] The fan does not stop when the outdoor unit stops. Outdoor unit controller trouble
[Trouble symptom 2] The fan motor does not rotate when the outdoor unit is operating.
(Diagnostic procedure)
(Diagnostic results)
(Reference)DC motor connector pin arrangement
(A) Turn OFF the power before connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors.
(B) When performing voltage measurement at the outdoor controller connector for (3) in the table
below, the DC motor will trip and voltage output will stop approximately 10 seconds after
operation is started. For this reason, to measure the voltage again, first turn OFF the outdoor
unit power, then, measure the voltage in Test Run mode.
* Disconnect the motor connectors and measure the voltage at the DC motor connectors on the outdoor
unit controller (3 locations).
Measurement location
(1) Vm-Gnd: Between pin 1 and pin 4
(2) Vcc-Gnd: Between pin 5 and pin 4
(3) Vsp-Gnd: Between pin 7 and pin 4

DC 14V or more
After fluctuating 4 times between DC 1.7 to 6.1V
(1 sec. ON) and DC 0 V (1 sec. OFF), the DC
motor trips.
(Replace the controller .)
Normal value
[Trouble symptom 3] Motor rotates for some time (several seconds), but then quickly stops, when the outdoor
unit operates.
(There is trouble in the system that provides feedback of motor rotation speed from the
motor to the outdoor unit controller.)
[Trouble symptom 4] Fan motor rotation speed does not change during outdoor unit operation.
[Trouble symptom 5] Fan motor rotation speed varies excessively during outdoor unit operation.
(Remedy for symptom 3 to 5)
It is not possible to identify whether the trouble is outdoor unit controller trouble or motor trouble.
Therefore, first replace the outdoor unit controller, then (if necessary) replace the DC motor.

9. REFRIGERANT R410A:
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING UNIT
9-1. Characteristics of New Refrigerant R410A
9-1-1. What is New Refrigerant R410A?
R410A is a new refrigerant that contains two types of pseudo-non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture. Its
refrigeration capacity and energy efficiency are about the same level as the conventional refrigerant, R22.
9-1-2. Components (mixing proportions)
HFC32 (50%) / HFC125 (50%)
9-1-3. Characteristics
Less toxic, more chemically stable refrigerant
The composition of refrigerant R410A changes whether it is in a gaseous phase or liquid phase. Thus, when
there is a refrigerant leak the basic performance of the air conditioner may be degraded because of a change in
composition of the remaining refrigerant. Therefore, do not add new refrigerant. Instead, recover the
remaining refrigerant with the refrigerant recovery unit. Then, after evacuation, totally recharge the specified
amount of refrigerant with the new refrigerant at its normal mixed composition state (in liquid phase).
When refrigerant R410A is used, the composition will differ depending on whether it is in gaseous or liquid
phase, and the basic performance of the air conditioner will be degraded if it is charged while the refrigerant is in
gaseous state. Thus, always charge the refrigerant while it is in liquid phase.
CAUTION
Ether-type oil is used for compressor oil for R410A-type units, which is different
from the mineral oil used for R22. Thus more attention to moisture prevention and
faster replacement work compared with conventional models are required.
59
Page 60
9-2. Checklist before Servicing
Use a clutch-type flare tool for R410A or the conventional flare tool. Note that sizes of the resultant flares differ
between these two tools. Where a conventional flare tool is used, make sure to observe A Specification (amount of
extrusion) by using the flare spacer.

A
Refrigerant R410A is more easily affected by dust or moisture compared with R22, thus be sure to temporarily
cover the ends of the tubing with caps or tape prior to installation.
Never use 0.0276" (0.7 mm)-thick copper tubing or tubing which is less than 0.0315" (0.8 mm) in thickness, since
air conditioners with R410A are subject to higher pressure than those using R22 and R407C.
No addition of compressor oil for R410A
No additional charge of compressor oil is permitted.
No use of refrigerant other than R410A
Never use a refrigerant other than R410A.
If refrigerant R410A is exposed to fire
Through welding, etc., toxic gas may be released when R410A refrigerant is exposed to fire. Therefore, be sure
to provide ample ventilation during installation work.
Caution in case of R410A leak
Check for possible leak points with the special leak detector for R410A. If a leak occurs inside the room,
immediately provide thorough ventilation.

9-5. In Case of Compressor Malfunction
CAUTION
Should the compressor malfunction, be sure to make the switch to a replacement
compressor as quickly as possible.
Use only the tools indicated exclusively for R410A. See "9-3. Tools Specifically
for R410A."
9-5-1. Procedure for Replacing Compressor
(1) Recovering refrigerant
Any remaining refrigerant inside the unit should not be
released to the atmosphere, but recovered using the
refrigerant recovery unit for R410A.
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant, since it will contain
impurities.
(2) Replacing Compressor
Soon after removing seals of both discharge and suction
tubes of the new compressor, replace it quickly.
(3) Checking for sealing
(1) Recover refrigerant
OK
(2) Replace compressor
OK
Use nitrogen gas for the pressurized gas, and never use a
refrigerant other than R410A. Also do not use oxygen or
any flammable gas.
(4) Evacuation
Use a solenoid valve-installed vacuum pump so that
even if power is cut off in the middle of evacuation of air
due to a power interruption, the valve will prevent the
pump oil from flowing back.
The equipment may be damaged if moisture remains in
the tubing, thus carry out the evacuation thoroughly.
When using a vacuum pump with exhaust air volume more
than 0.883 cu.ft./min. and ultimate vacuum pressure rate
of 50 micron Hg.

(5) Recharging
Configuration and characteristics of cylinders
Be sure to charge the specified amount of
refrigerant in liquid state using the service port
of the wide tube service valve. The proper
amount is listed on the unit's nameplate.
When the entire amount cannot be charged all at
once, charge gradually while operating the unit in
Cooling Operation.
CAUTION
Never charge a large amount
of liquid refrigerant at once to
the unit. This may cause
damage to the compressor.
When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use an
electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In this
case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylinder
becomes less than 20% of the fully-charged
amount, the composition of the refrigerant starts
to change. Thus, do not use the refrigerant if
the amount in the charging cylinder is less
than 20%.
Also, charge the minimum necessary amount to
the charging cylinder before using it to charge
the air conditioning unit.

Kg) cylinder, the minimum necessary amount for
the cylinder is:
For the remaining refrigerant, refer to the
instructions of the refrigerant manufacturer.
If using a charging cylinder, transfer the specified
amount of liquid refrigerant from the refrigerant
cylinder to the charging cylinder.
Prepare an evacuated charging cylinder
beforehand.
CAUTION
To prevent the composition
of R410A from changing,
never bleed the refrigerant
gas into the atmosphere
while transferring the
refrigerant. (Fig. 3)

9-6. In Case Refrigerant is Leaking
CAUTION
Never attempt to charge additional refrigerant when refrigerant has been leaking
from the unit. Follow the procedure described below to locate points of leaks and
carry out repairs, then recharge the refrigerant.
(1) Detecting Leaks
Use the detector for R410A to locate refrigerant leak
points.
(2) Recovering refrigerant
Never release the gas to the atmosphere; recover
residual refrigerant using the refrigerant recovery unit for
R410A, instead.
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant because its
composition will have been altered.
(3) Welding leaking points
Confirm again that no residual refrigerant exists in the unit
before starting welding.
Weld securely using flux and wax for R410A.
Prevent oxide film from forming inside the tubes utilizing
substitution with nitrogen (N2) in the refrigerant circuit of
the unit. Leave ends of tubes open during welding.
(1) Detect leaks
OK
(2) Recover refrigerant
OK
(3) Weld leaking points
OK
(4) Checking for sealing
Use nitrogen gas for the pressurized gas, and never use
a refrigerant other than R410A. Also do not use oxygen or
any flammable gas.
(5) Evacuation
Use a solenoid valve-installed vacuum pump so that
even if power is cut off in the middle of evacuation of air
due to a power interruption, the valve will prevent the
pump oil from flowing back.

9-7. Charging Additional Refrigerant
9-7-1. When Tubes are Extended
Observe the proper amount of refrigerant as stated in this service manual or the installation manual that came
with the indoor unit. Charge additional refrigerant in liquid state only.
CAUTION
Never charge additional refrigerant if refrigerant is leaking from the unit. Follow
instructions given in "9-6. In Case Refrigerant is Leaking" and completely carry out
repairs. Only then should you recharge the refrigerant.
9-8. Retro-Fitting Existing Systems
9-8-1. Use of Existing Units
Never use new refrigerant R410A for existing units which use R22. This will cause the air conditioner to
operate improperly and may result in a hazardous condition.
9-8-2. Use of Existing Tubing
If replacing an older unit that used refrigerant R22 with a R410A unit, do not use its existing tubing. Instead,
completely new tubing must be used.

PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A
QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN
SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYSTEM.
…In a Ceiling or Wall
Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the
unit’s weight. It may be necessary to construct a strong
wood or metal frame to provide added support.
…In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent
“sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to
walls and floors.
…In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a
solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents
water damage and abnormal vibration.
…In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a
metal frame. Provide a suitable air baffle.
…In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher
than drifting snow. Provide snow vents.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
• Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
• Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of
the flare and union tubes before connecting them, then
tighten the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free
connection.
• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
When Servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains) before
opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and
wiring.
• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving
parts.
• Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check
that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left inside
the unit being serviced.
Others
CAUTION
• Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing
the refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on
contact with fire or heat, can produce dangerously
toxic gas.
• Confirm upon completing installation that no refrigerant
gas is leaking. If escaped gas comes in contact with a
stove, gas water heater, electric room heater or other heat
source, it can produce dangerously toxic gas.
• Do not install only a single indoor unit.

2-4. Baffle Plate for the Outdoor Unit
(CLM models only)
It is recommended to use baffle plates for models
CLM1972, CLM2472 and CLM3172. The baffle plates are
not normally required for the other models.
When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed to
strong wind (such as seasonal winds with low air temperature in winter), baffle plates must be installed on the outdoor
unit. (Fig. 5f)
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit runs
at low speed when the air conditioner is operated at low
outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit is exposed
to strong wind, the system pressure drops because of the
freeze protector.
Install a pair of windbaffle plates at the front and back of the
outdoor unit if it will be subject to strong wind during the
winter. (Figs. 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, and 5j)
Material to be used: Metal plate with corrosion protection treatment

3. Installation Process
3-1. Embedding the Tubing and Wiring
G Do not connect tubes to locations that are embedded.
G Be sure to bind refrigerant tubing and inter-unit cables
together with vinyl tape.
G The power cable must be obtained on-site.
(#12: Less than 85 ft.)
# ... AWG (American Wire Gauge)
G Be sure to apply the provided labels to both ends of
the inter-unit cables to prevent miswiring.
G Securely seal the end of embedded tubing with vinyl
tape in order to prevent dirt or moisture entry.
G In order to prevent insulation breakdown and ground
faults, do not allow the wire ends to contact rainwater,
or be subject to dew condensation.
3-2. Use of the Flaring Method
Many of the conventional split system air conditioners
employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes
which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this
method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and
connected with flare nuts.

Deburring
After
3-3. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 12" to
20" (30 to 50 cm) longer than the tubing length you
estimate.
(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a
tube reamer or file. This process is important and
should be done carefully to make a good flare.

(3) Remove the flare nut from the unit and be sure to mount
it on the copper tube.
(4) Make a flare at the end of copper tube with a flare tool.*
(Figs. 10 and 11)
(*Use “RIGID” or equivalent.)
NOTE
A good flare should have the following characteristics:
G inside surface is glossy and smooth.
G edge is smooth.
G tapered sides are of uniform length.
3-4. Caution before Connecting Tubes Tightly
a)Be sure to apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to
prevent dust or water from getting into the tubes before
they are used.
b)Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching
surfaces of the flare and union before connecting them
together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks.

“Tubing Check Control” in the
Technical & Service Manual.
3-6. Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing
Indoor unit
Torque wrench
Spanner
Outdoor unit
Fig. 15
To prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of condensation, both tubes must be well insulated with a
proper insulation material.
The thickness of the insulation should be a minimum 5/16"
(8 mm). (Fig. 17)
3-7. Taping the Tubes
CAUTION
After a tube has been insulated,
never try to bend it into a
narrow curve, as this may
cause the tube to break or
crack.
(1) At this time, the 2 refrigerant tubes (and electrical wire
if local codes permit) should be taped together with
armoring tape. The drain hose may also be included
and taped together as 1 bundle with the tubing.
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor
unit to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall. As
you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape
turn. (Fig. 18)

(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to wall, using 1 clamp approx.
every 47" (120 cm).
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly, since this will
decrease the heat insulation effect. Also, be sure the condensation drain hose splits away from the bundle and drips
clear of the unit and the tubing.
3-8. Finishing the Installation
After finishing insulating and taping over the tubing, use
sealing putty to seal off the hole in the wall to prevent rain
and draft from entering. (Fig. 19)

4. Air Purging
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant
system have undesirable effects as indicated
below. Therefore, they must be purged completely.
G pressure in the system rises
G operating current rises
G cooling efficiency drops
G moisture in the air may freeze and block
capillary tubing
G water may lead to corrosion of parts in the
refrigerant system
I
Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump
(for Test Run)
G In order to protect the earth’s environment, be sure to use
a vacuum pump to perform the air purge.
(Never perform an air purge by using the refrigerant gas
cylinder or other external gas, or by using the gas inside
the outdoor unit.)

at the service valve charging port has
been changed. When recharging or performing other servicing, use the special
charging hose and manifold gauge.
Perform the air purge for tubes A, B, C, and D. Use the
same procedures for all tubes.
(1) Check that each tube (both narrow and wide tubes)
between the indoor and outdoor units have been
properly connected and all wiring for the test run has
been completed. Note that both narrow and wide tube
service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at
this stage.
(2) Using an adjustable wrench or box wrench, remove
the valve caps from the service valve on both narrow
and wide tubes.
(3) Connect a vacuum pump and a manifold valve (with
pressure gauges) to the service port on the wide tube
service valve. (Fig. 20).
CAUTION
Before using the vacuum pump
adapter, read the vacuum pump
adapter manual, and use the
adapter correctly.
CAUTION
Be sure to use a manifold valve for
air purging. If it is not available,
use a stop valve for this purpose.
The “Hi” knob of the manifold
valve must always be kept closed.

(4) With the “Lo” knob of the manifold valve open and
high-pressure valve (“Hi”) closed completely, run
the vacuum pump. Run the pump until the pressure is –101 kPa (–76 cmHg). The operation time
for the vacuum pump varies with tubing length and
the capacity of the pump. The following table
shows the amount of time required for evacuation:
Table 5
Required time for evacuation when capacity
of 100 liter/h vacuum pump is used
20 min. or more
NOTE
The required time in the above table is calculated
based on the assumption that the ideal (or target)
vacuum condition is around 10 mmHg abs.
(5) With the vacuum pump still running, close the “Lo”
knob of the manifold valve. Then stop the vacuum
pump. Fully close the low-pressure valve and stop
the vacuum pump. (Wait 1 – 2 minutes and check
that the manifold gauge pointer does not return. If
it does return, find and repair the leak, then apply
the vacuum again.)
(6) With a hex wrench, turn the valve stem on the nar-
row tube service valve counter-clockwise by 90
degrees (1/4 turn) for 10 seconds, and then turn
the stem clockwise to close it again.
CAUTION
Be sure to completely insert
the hex wrench before
attempting to turn the valve.
(7) With a standard screwdriver, turn the wide tube
service valve stem counterclockwise to fully open
the valve.
(8) Turn the narrow tube service valve stem counter-
clockwise to fully open the valve.
(9) Loosen the vacuum hose connected to the wide
tube service port slightly to release the pressure.
Then, remove the hose.
(10) Leak test all joints at the tubing (both indoor and
outdoors) with liquid soap. Bubbles indicate a leak.
Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.
CAUTION
If a CFC gas detector is used,
use a special detector for HFC
refrigerant (such as R410 and
R134a).
19
Page 86
(11) Replace the flare nut on the wide tube service port and fasten the flare nut securely with an adjustable wrench or
box wrench. Next, mount the valve cap and tighten it with a torque wrench (the cap needs to be tightened with the
torque of 180 lbs·in (200 kgf·cm)). This process is very important to prevent gas from leaking from the system.
(12) Test run the air conditioner. (See page 25.)
(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid soap to check for any gas leaks around the service valves or caps.
(14) If there is no leakage, stop the air conditioner.
(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and the air conditioner is ready for actual operation.
I Pump Down
In order to protect the earth’s environment, be sure to perform pump-down to recover refrigerant
gas without releasing it into the atmosphere.
G When relocating or disposing of the A/C, request this service from
the dealer where the unit was purchased, or from an appropriate
agent. Perform pump-down as described below.
What is pump-down?
G Pump-down refers to recovering the refrigerant gas from the refrig-
erant cycle at the outdoor unit. This work must be performed during cooling operation. The refrigerant gas cannot be recovered
during heating operation.
G During winter, or if the temperature sensor prevents cooling opera-
tion, perform “forced cooling operation.”
Pump-down procedure
(1) Fully close the spindles at the valves on the narrow tube side of
tubes A, B, C and D. (Refer to Fig. 22.)
(2) Connect the manifold gauge to the charging port at the valve on
the wide tube side of tube D. Purge the air from the charging hose.
(Refer to Fig. 23.)
(3) Perform cooling operation or forced cooling
operation.
When the pressure at the low-pressure side is 0.15 – 0.2 MPa
(0.5 – 1 kg/cm
2
G), fully close the spindles at the valves on the
wide tube side of tubes A, B, C, and D, and immediately stop
operation. (Refer to Fig. 23.)
In the winter, the outdoor unit may stop after 5 - 10 minutes of
operation. This is in order to protect the indoor unit heat
exchanger from freezing and does not indicate a problem.
(4) Disconnect the manifold gauge and the inter-unit tubes, and
attach the caps and flare nuts. At this point, pump-down is completed. (If the caps and flare nuts are not reattached, there is the
danger of gas leakage.) (Refer to Fig. 24.)

5. Wiring Instructions
5-1. General Precautions on Wiring
(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit as
shown on its nameplate, then carry out the wiring
closely following the wiring diagram.
(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for each
unit, with a power supply disconnect and circuit breaker for overcurrent protection provided in the exclusive
line.
(3) To prevent possible hazard due to insulation failure,
the unit must be grounded.
(4) Each wiring connection must be done tightly and in
accordance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong
wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or become
damaged.
(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,
compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.
(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can be
very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept no
responsibility for any damage or misoperation that
occurs as a result of such unauthorized changes.
5-2. Recommended Wire Length and Diameter
Regulations on wiring diameter differ from locality to locality.
For field wiring requirements, please refer to your local electrical codes. Carefully observe these regulations when carrying out the installation.
Table 6 shows maximum wire lengths for control line and
power line and fuse or circuit capacity.
NOTE
Refer to the wiring system diagram (Fig. 25a or 25b) for the
meaning of (A), (B), and (C) in Table 6.
Refer to your local codes or in the absence of local codes
see the National Electric Code: ANSI/NFPA70.
