• Before opening the service panel of the outdoor unit, set the circuit breaker to the OFF position. Failure to set the circuit breaker to the OFF position may result in electric shocks through contact with the interior parts. Only a qualified installer(*1) or qualified service person(*1) is allowed to remove the service panel of the outdoor unit and do the work required.
• Before carrying out the installation, maintenance, repair or removal work, be sure to set the circuit breakers for both the indoor and outdoor units to the OFF position. Otherwise, electric shock may result.
• Place a “Work in progress” sign near the circuit breaker while the installation, maintenance, repair or removal work is being carried out. There is a danger of electric shocks if the circuit breaker is set to ON by mistake.
• Only a qualified installer(*1) or qualified service person(*1) is allowed to undertake work at heights using a stand of 50 cm or more or to remove the intake grille of the indoor unit to undertake work.
• Wear protective gloves and safety work clothing during installation, servicing and removal.
• Do not touch the aluminium fin of the outdoor unit. You may injure yourself if you do so. If the fin must be touched for some reason, first put on protective gloves and safety work clothing, and then proceed.
• Do not climb onto or place objects on top of the outdoor unit. You may fall or the objects may fall off of the outdoor unit and result in injury.
• When working at height, put a sign in place so that no-one will approach the work location before proceeding with the work. Parts or other objects may fall from above, possibly injuring a person below. Also, be sure that workers put on helmets.
• When cleaning the filter or other parts of the outdoor unit, set the circuit breaker to OFF without fail, and place a “Work in progress” sign near the circuit breaker before proceeding with the work.
• When working at heights, put a sign in place so that no-one will approach the work location, before proceeding with the work. Parts and other objects may fall from above, possibly injuring a person below.
• The refrigerant used by this air conditioner is the R410A.
• You shall ensure that the air conditioner is transported in stable condition. If you find any part of the product broken, contact your dealer.
• Do not disassemble, modify, repair or move the product yourself. Doing so may cause fire, electric shock, injury or water leaks. Ask a qualified installer or qualified service person to do any repairs or to move the product.
Selection of installation location
• If you install the unit in a small room, take appropriate measures to prevent the refrigerant from exceeding the limit concentration even if it leaks. Consult the dealer from whom you purchased the air conditioner when you implement the measures. Accumulation of highly concentrated refrigerant may cause an oxygen deficiency accident.
• Do not install in a location where flammable gas may leaks are possible. If the gas should leak and accumulate around the unit, it may ignite and cause a fire.
• When transporting the air conditioner, wear shoes with protective toe caps, protective gloves and other protective clothing.
• When transporting the air conditioner, do not take hold of the bands around the packing carton. You may injure yourself if the bands should break.
• Install the indoor unit at least 2.5 m above the floor level since otherwise the users may injure themselves or receive electric shocks if they poke their fingers or other objects into the indoor unit while the air conditioner is running.
• Do not place any combustion appliance in a place where it is directly exposed to the wind of air conditioner, otherwise it may cause imperfect combustion.

Refrigerant piping
• Install the refrigerant pipe securely during the installation work before operating the air conditioner. If the compressor is operated with the valve open and without refrigerant pipe, the compressor sucks air and the refrigeration cycles is over pressurized, which may cause a injury.
• Tighten the flare nut with a torque wrench in the specified manner. Excessive tighten of the flare nut may cause a crack in the flare nut after a long period, which may result in refrigerant leakage.
• Ventilate the air if the refrigerant gas leaks during installation. If the leaked refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire, toxic gas may be produced.
• After the installation work, confirm that refrigerant gas does not leak. If refrigerant gas leaks into the room and flows near a fire source, such as a cooking range, noxious gas may be generated.
• When the air conditioner has been installed or relocated, follow the instructions in the Installation Manual and purge the air completely so that no gases other than the refrigerant will be mixed in the refrigerating cycle. Failure to purge the air completely may cause the air conditioner to malfunction.
• Nitrogen gas must be used for the airtight test.
• The charge hose must be connected in such a way that it is not slack.
• If refrigerant gas has leaked during the installation work, ventilate the room immediately. If the leaked refrigerant gas comes in contact with fire, noxious gas may be generated.
Electrical wiring
• Only a qualified installer(*1) or qualified service person(*1) is allowed to carry out the electrical work of the air conditioner. Under no circumstances must this work be done by an unqualified individual since failure to carry out the work properly may result in electric shocks and / or electrical leaks.
• When connecting the electrical wires, repairing the electrical parts or undertaking other electrical jobs, wear gloves to provide protection for electricians and from heat, insulating shoes and clothing to provide protection from electric shocks. Failure to wear this protective gear may result in electric shocks.
• When executing address setting, test run, or troubleshooting through the checking window on the electrical control box, put on insulated heat-proof gloves, insulated shoes and other clothing to provide protection from electric shock. Otherwise you may receive an electric shock.
• Use wiring that meets the specifications in the Installation Manual and the stipulations in the local regulations and laws. Use of wiring which does not meet the specifications may give rise to electric shocks, electrical leakage, smoking and / or a fire.
• Check that the product is properly earthed. (grounding work) Incomplete earthing may cause electric shock.
• Do not connect the earth line to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning conductor, or a telephone earth line.
• After completing the repair or relocation work, check that the ground wires are connected properly.
• Install a circuit breaker that meets the specifications in the installation manual and the stipulations in the local regulations and laws.
• Install the circuit breaker where it can be easily accessed by the agent.
• When installing the circuit breaker outdoors, install one which is designed to be used outdoors.
• Under no circumstances must the power cable be extended. Connection trouble in the places where the cable is extended may give rise to smoking and / or a fire.
• Electrical wiring work shall be conducted according to law and regulation in the community and installation manual. Failure to do so may result in electrocution or short circuit.
• Do not supply power from the power terminal block equipped on the outdoor unit to another outdoor unit. Capacity overflow may occur on the terminal block and may result in fire.
• When carrying out electric connection, use the wire specified in the Installation Manual and connect and fix the wires securely to prevent them applying external force to the terminals. Improper connection or fixing may result in fire.
Test run
• Before operating the air conditioner after having completed the work, check that the electrical control box cover of the indoor unit and service panel of the outdoor unit are closed, and set the circuit breaker to the ON position. You may receive an electric shock if the power is turned on without first conducting these checks.
• When you have noticed that some kind of trouble (such as when an error display has appeared, there is a smell of burning, abnormal sounds are heard, the air conditioner fails to cool or heat or water is leaking) has occurred in the air conditioner, do not touch the air conditioner yourself but set the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and contact a qualified service person. Take steps to ensure that the power will not be turned on (by marking “out of service” near the circuit breaker, for instance) until qualified service person arrives. Continuing to use the air conditioner in the trouble status may cause mechanical problems to escalate or result in electric shocks or other failure.
• After the work has finished, be sure to use an insulation tester set (500 V Megger) to check the resistance is 2 M or more between the charge section and the non-charge metal section (Earth section). If the resistance value is low, a disaster such as a leak or electric shock is caused at user’s side.
• Upon completion of the installation work, check for refrigerant leaks and check the insulation resistance and water drainage. Then conduct a test run to check that the air conditioner is operating properly.
Explanations given to user
• Upon completion of the installation work, tell the user where the circuit breaker is located. If the user does not know where the circuit breaker is, he or she will not be able to turn it off in the event that trouble has occurred in the air conditioner.
• If you have discovered that the fan grille is damaged, do not approach the outdoor unit but set the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and contact a qualified service person(*1) to have the repairs done. Do not set the circuit breaker to the ON position until the repairs are completed.
• After the installation work, follow the Owner’s Manual to explain to the customer how to use and maintain the unit.
Relocation
• Only a qualified installer(*1) or qualified service person(*1) is allowed to relocate the air conditioner. It is dangerous for the air conditioner to be relocated by an unqualified individual since a fire, electric shocks, injury, water leakage, noise and / or vibration may result.
• When carrying out the pump-down work shut down the compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipe. Disconnecting the refrigerant pipe with the service valve left open and the compressor still operating will cause air or other gas to be suck ed in, raising the pressure inside the refrigeration cycle to an abnormally high level, and possibly resulting in rupture, injury or other trouble.
• Never recover the refrigerant into the outdoor unit. Be sure to use a refrigerant recovery machine to recover the refrigerant when moving or repairing. It is impossible to recover the refrigerant into the outdoor unit. Refrigerant recovery into the outdoor unit may result in serious accidents such as explosion of the unit, injury or other accidents.
(*1) Refer to the “Definition of Qualified Installer or Qualified Service Person.”
New refrigerant air conditioner installation

3 Installation of new refrigerant air
conditioner
This air conditioner adopts the new HFC refrigerant (R410A) which does not deplete the ozone layer.
• R410A refrigerant is vulnerable to impurities such as water, oxidizing membranes, or oils because the pressure of R410A refrigerant is higher than that of the former refrigerant by approximately 1.6 times. As well as the adoption of the new refrigerant, the refrigerating oil has been also changed. Therefore, pay attention so that water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigerating oil does not enter the refrigerating cycle of the new refrigerant air conditioner during installation.
• To prevent mixing of refrigerant or refrigerating oil, the size of the charge port of the main unit or connecting section of the installation tool differs to that of an air conditioner for the former refrigerant. Accordingly, exclusive tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A) as shown below.
• For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping materials so that water or dust does not enter.

• When water is to be drained through the drain hose, attach the following drain nipple and waterproof rubber cap, and use the drain hose (Inner diam: 16 mm) sold on the market. Also seal the knockout hole and screws securely with silicone material, etc., to prevent water from leaking. Some conditions may cause dewing or dripping of water.
• When collectively draining discharged water completely, use a drain pan.
• Please pay attention to the drain in region with snowfall and cold temperature, as it may be frozen and cause drainage problems. Punch the knockout holes on the bottom plate to improve drainability. Use a screwdriver and take off the knockout part outward.
For reference
If a heating operation is to be continuously performed for a long time under the condition that the outdoor temperature is 0 °C or lower, draining defrosted water may be difficult due to the bottom plate freezing, resulting in trouble with the cabinet or fan. It is recommended to procure an anti-freeze heater locally in order to safely install the air conditioner. For details, contact the dealer.
5 Refrigerant piping
Knockout of pipe cover
Knockout procedure
• The indoor / outdoor connecting pipes can be connected in 4 directions. Take off the knockout of the pipe cover or bottom plate where the pipes or wires will pass through.
• Without detaching the pipe cover, tap on the knockout section a few times with the shank of a screwdriver. A knockout hole can easily be punched.
• As shown in the figure below, it is easier to punch out the knockout hole when the pipe cover is left in place rather than when the cover is removed from the unit. In knocking out the hole, the knockout section can easily be removed by hand once the bottom of the three locations where the section is joined along the guide lines is broken using a screwdriver.
• After punching out the knockout hole, remove burrs from the hole, and install the protective bush and guard material around the passage hole provided as accessories in order to protect the wires and pipes. Also be sure to attach the pipe covers after connecting the pipes. The pipe covers can be easily attached by cutting off the slits at the lower part of the covers.
* Be sure to wear heavy work gloves while working.

Tightening of connecting part
1. Align the centers of the connecting pipes and fully tighten the flare nut with your fingers. Then fix the nut with a wrench as shown in the figure and tighten it with a torque wrench.
2. As shown in the figure, be sure to use two wrenches to loosen or tighten the flare nut of the valve on the gas side. If you use a single wrench, the flare nut cannot be tightened to the required tightening torque. On the other hand, use a single wrench to loosen or tighten the flare nut of the valve on the liquid side.
1.Do not put the wrench on the cap or cover. The valve may break.
2.If applying excessive torque, the nut may break according to some installation conditions.

• After the installation work, be sure to check for gas leaks of the pipe connections with nitrogen.
• Pressure of R410A is higher than that of R22 (Approx. 1.6 times). Therefore, using a torque wrench, tighten the flare pipe connecting sections that connect the indoor / outdoor units at the specified tightening torque. Incomplete connections may cause not only a gas leak, but also trouble with the refrigeration cycle.
Do not apply refrigerant oil to the flared surface.
