2. REFRIGERANT R410A
This air conditioner adopts the new refrigerant HFC
(R410A) which does not damage the ozone layer.
The working pressure of the new refrigerant R410A
is 1.6 times higher than conventional refrigerant
(R22). The refrigerating oil is also changed in
accordance with change of refrigerant, so be careful
that water, dust, and existing refrigerant or refrigerating oil are not entered in the refrigerant cycle of the
air conditioner using the new refrigerant during
installation work or servicing time.
The next section describes the precautions for air
conditioner using the new refrigerant. Conforming to
contents of the next section together with the
general cautions included in this manual, perform
the correct and safe work.
2-1. Safety During Installation/Servicing
As R410A’s pressure is about 1.6 times higher than
that of R22, improper installation/servicing may
cause a serious trouble. By using tools and materials exclusive for R410A, it is necessary to carry out
installation/servicing safely while taking the following
precautions into consideration.
(1) Never use refrigerant other than R410A in an air
conditioner which is designed to operate with
R410A.
If other refrigerant than R410A is mixed, pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high, and it may cause personal injury, etc.
by a rupture.
(2) Confirm the used refrigerant name, and use
tools and materials exclusive for the refrigerant
R410A.
The refrigerant name R410A is indicated on the
visible place of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner using R410A as refrigerant. To prevent
mischarging, the diameter of the service port
differs from that of R22.
(3) If a refrigeration gas leakage occurs during
installation/servicing, be sure to ventilate fully.
If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire,
a poisonous gas may occur.
(4) When installing or removing an air conditioner,
do not allow air or moisture to remain in the
refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the
refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high
so that a rupture or personal injury may be
caused.
(5) After completion of installation work, check to
make sure that there is no refrigeration gas
leakage.
If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, coming
into contact with fire in the fan-driven heater,
space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.
(6) When an air conditioning system charged with a
large volume of refrigerant is installed in a small
room, it is necessary to exercise care so that,
even when refrigerant leaks, its concentration
does not exceed the marginal lev el.
If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and its
concentration exceeds the marginal level, an
oxygen starvation accident may result.
(7) Be sure to carry out installation or removal
according to the installation manual.
Improper installation may cause refrigeration
trouble, water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.
(8) Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner
may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs
please call a qualified air conditioner technician
or electrician.
Improper repair’s may result in water leakage,
electric shock and fire, etc.
2-2. Refrigerant Piping Installation
2-2-1. Piping Materials and Joints Used
For the refrigerant piping installation, copper pipes
and joints are mainly used. Copper pipes and joints
suitable for the refrigerant must be chosen and
installed. Furthermore, it is necessary to use clean
copper pipes and joints whose interior surfaces are
less affected by contaminants .
(1) Copper Pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes
which are made of either copper or copper alloy
and it is desirable that the amount of residual oil
is less than 40 mg/10 m. Do not use copper
pipes having a collapsed, deformed or discolored portion (especially on the interior surface).
Otherwise, the expansion v alve or capillary tube
may become bloc ked with contaminants.
As an air conditioner using R410A incurs
pressure higher than when using R22, it is
necessary to choose adequate materials.
Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A
are as shown in Table 2-2-1. Never use copper
pipes thinner than 0.8 mm even when it is
available on the market.

(2) Joints
For copper pipes, flare joints or soc ket joints are
used. Prior to use , be sure to remove all contaminants.
a) Flare Joints
Flare joints used to connect the copper pipes
cannot be used for pipings whose outer
diameter exceeds 20 mm. In such a case,
socket joints can be used.

2-2-2. Processing of Piping Materials
When performing the refrigerant piping installation,
care should be taken to ensure that water or dust
does not enter the pipe interior, that no other oil
other than lubricating oils used in the installed air
conditioner is used, and that refrigerant does not
leak. When using lubricating oils in the piping
processing, use such lubricating oils whose water
content has been removed. When stored, be sure to
seal the container with an airtight cap or any other
cover.

By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare
processing correctly.
Use either a flare tool for R410A or conventional flare tool.
Flare processing dimensions differ according
to the type of flare tool. When using a
conventional flare tool, be sure to secure
“dimension A” by using a gauge for size
adjustment.

(2) Flare Connecting Procedures and Precautions
a) Make sure that the flare and union portions
do not have any scar or dust, etc.
b) Correctly align the processed flare surface
with the union axis.
c) Tighten the flare with designated torque by
means of a torque wrench. The tightening
torque for R410A is the same as that for
conventional R22. Incidentally, when the
torque is weak, the gas leakage may occur.

2-3. Tools
2-3-1. Required Tools
The service port diameter of pac ked valve of the outdoor unit in the air conditioner using R410A is changed to
prevent mixing of other refrigerant. To reinforce the pressure-resisting strength, flare processing dimensions
and opposite side dimension of flare nut (For Ø12.7 copper pipe) of the refrigerant piping are lengthened.
The used refrigerating oil is changed, and mixing of oil may cause a trouble such as generation of sludge,
clogging of capillary, etc. Accordingly, the tools to be used are classified into the following three types.
(1) Tools exclusive for R410A (Those which cannot be used for conventional refrigerant (R22))
(2) Tools exclusive for R410A, but can be also used for conventional refrigerant (R22)
(3) Tools commonly used for R410A and for conventional refrigerant (R22)
The table below shows the tools exclusive for R410A and their interchangeability.

2-4. Recharging of Refrigerant
When it is necessary to recharge refrigerant, charge the specified amount of new refrigerant according to the
following steps .
Recover the refrigerant, and check no refrigerant
remains in the equipment.
Connect the charge hose to packed valve service
port at the outdoor unit’s gas side.
Connect the charge hose to the vacuum pump
adapter.
Open fully both packed valves at liquid and gas
sides.
When the compound gauge’s pointer has indicated
–0.1 Mpa (–76 cmHg), place the handle Low in the
fully closed position, and turn off the vacuum pump’s
power switch.
Keep the status as it is for 1 to 2 minutes, and ensure
that the compound gauge’s pointer does not return.
Set the refrigerant cylinder to the electronic balance,
connect the connecting hose to the cylinder and the
connecting port of the electronic balance, and charge
liquid refrigerant.
Place the handle of the gauge manifold Low in the
fully opened position, and turn on the vacuum pump’s
power switch. Then, evacuating the refrigerant in the
cycle.
(For refrigerant charging, see the figure below.)
(1) Never charge refrigerant exceeding the specified amount.
(2) If the specified amount of refrigerant cannot be charged, charge refrigerant bit by bit in COOL mode.
(3) Do not carry out additional charging.
When additional charging is carried out if refrigerant leaks, the refrigerant composition changes in the
refrigeration cycle, that is characteristics of the air conditioner changes, refrigerant exceeding the
specified amount is charged, and working pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high
pressure, and may cause a rupture or personal injury.

(1) Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged.
(2) When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down.
It is necessary for charging refrigerant under condition of liquid because R410A is mixed type of refrigerant.
Accordingly, when charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the equipment, charge it turning the
cylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.

R410A refrigerant is HFC mixed refrigerant.
Therefore, if it is charged with gas, the composition of the charged refrigerant changes and the

2-5. Brazing of Pipes
2-5-1. Materials for Brazing
(1) Silver brazing filler
Silver brazing filler is an alloy mainly composed
of silver and copper. It is used to join iron,
copper or copper alloy, and is relatively expensive though it excels in solderability.
Electronic
balance
Siphon
Fig. 2-4-2
(1) Phosphor bronze brazing filler tends to react
with sulfur and produce a fragile compound
water solution, which may cause a gas
leakage. Therefore, use any other type of
brazing filler at a hot spring resort, etc., and
coat the surface with a paint.
(2) When performing brazing again at time of
servicing, use the same type of brazing filler.
(2) Phosphor bronze brazing filler
Phosphor bronze brazing filler is generally used
to join copper or copper alloy.
(3) Low temperature brazing filler
Low temperature brazing filler is generally called
solder, and is an alloy of tin and lead. Since it is
weak in adhesive strength, do not use it for
refrigerant pipes.
2-5-2. Flux
(1) Reason why flux is necessary
• By removing the oxide film and any foreign
matter on the metal surface, it assists the flo w
of brazing filler.
• In the brazing process, it prevents the metal
surface from being oxidiz ed.
• By reducing the brazing filler’s surface tension,
the brazing filler adheres better to the treated
metal.
– 11 –
Page 12
(2) Characteristics required for flux
Nitrogen gas

Pipe
Flow meter
M
Stop valve

Rubber plug
• Activated temperature of flux coincides with
the brazing temperature.
• Due to a wide effective temperature range, flux
is hard to carbonize.
• It is easy to remove slag after brazing.
• The corrosive action to the treated metal and
brazing filler is minimum.
• It excels in coating performance and is harmless to the human body.
As the flux works in a complicated manner as
described above, it is necessary to select an
adequate type of flux according to the type and
shape of treated metal, type of brazing filler and
brazing method, etc.
(3) Types of flux
• Noncorrosive flux
Generally, it is a compound of borax and boric
acid.
It is effective in case where the br azing temperature is higher than 800°C.
• Activated flux
Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazing
are this type.
It features an increased o xide film remo ving
capability due to the addition of compounds
such as potassium fluoride, potassium chloride
and sodium fluoride to the borax-boric acid
compound.
(4) Piping materials for brazing and used braz-
ing filler/flux
2-5-3. Brazing
As brazing work requires sophisticated techniques,
experiences based upon a theoretical knowledge, it
must be performed by a person qualified.
In order to prevent the oxide film from occurring in
the pipe interior during brazing, it is effective to
proceed with brazing while letting dry Nitrogen gas
(N2) flow .
Never use gas other than Nitrogen gas.
(1) Brazing method to prevent oxidation
1) Attach a reducing valve and a flow-meter to
the Nitrogen gas cylinder.
2) Use a copper pipe to direct the piping material, and attach a flow-meter to the cylinder.
3) Apply a seal onto the clearance between the
piping material and inserted copper pipe for
Nitrogen in order to prevent backflow of the
Nitrogen gas.
4) When the Nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure to
keep the piping end open.
5) Adjust the flow rate of Nitrogen gas so that it
is lower than 0.05 m3/Hr or 0.02 MPa (0.2kgf/
cm2) by means of the reducing valv e.
6) After performing the steps above, keep the
Nitrogen gas flowing until the pipe cools
down to a certain extent (temperature at
which pipes are touchable with hands).
7) Remove the flux completely after brazing.
Copper - Copper
Copper - Iron
(1) Do not enter flux into the refrigeration cycle.
(2) When chlorine contained in the flux remains
(3) When adding water to the flux, use water

8. OPERATION DESCRIPTION
8-1. Outline of Air Conditioner Control
This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type air
conditioner, which uses DC motor for the indoor fan
motor and the outdoor fan motor. And the capacityproportional control compressor which can change
the motor speed in the range from 13 to 110 rps is
mounted. The DC motor drive circuit is mounted to
the indoor unit. The compressor and the inverter to
control fan motor are mounted to the outdoor unit.
The entire air conditioner is mainly controlled by the
indoor unit controller.
The indoor unit controller drives the indoor fan motor
based upon command sent from the remote controller, and transfers the operation command to the
outdoor unit controller.
The outdoor unit controller receives operation
command from the indoor unit side, and controls the
outdoor fan and the pulse modulating valve. (P.M.V)
Besides, detecting rev olution position of the compressor motor, the outdoor unit controller controls
speed of the compressor motor by controlling output
voltage of the inv erter and switching timing of the
supply power (current transfer timing) so that motors
drive according to the operation command. And
then, the outdoor unit controller transfers re versely
the operating status information of the outdoor unit
to control the indoor unit controller.
As the compressor adopts four-pole
brushless DC motor, the frequency of the
supply power from inverter to compressor is
two-times cycles of the actual number of
revolution.
(1) Role of indoor unit controller
The indoor unit controller judges the operation
commands from the remote controller and
assumes the following functions.
• Judgment of suction air temperature of the
indoor heat exchanger by using the indoor
temp. sensor. (TA sensor)
• Temperature setting of the indoor heat exchanger by using heat exchanger sensor
(TC sensor) (Prevent-freezing control)
• Louver motor control
• Indoor fan motor operation control
• LED (Light Emitting Diode) display control
• Transferring of operation command signal
(Serial signal) to the outdoor unit
• Reception of information of operation status
(Serial signal including outside temp. data) to
the outdoor unit and judgment/display of error
(2) Role of outdoor unit controller
Receiving the operation command signal (Serial
signal) from the indoor controller, the outdoor
unit performs its role.
• Compressor operation
control
• Operation control of
outdoor fan motor
• P.M.V . control
• Detection of inverter input current and current
release operation
• Over-current detection and prevention oper ation to IGBT module (Compressor stop function)
• Compressor and outdoor fan stop function
when serial signal is off (when the serial signal
does not reach the board assembly of outdoor
control by trouble of the signal system)
• Transferring of operation information (Serial
signal) from outdoor unit to indoor unit
• Detection of outdoor temperature and operation revolution control
• Defrost control in heating operation (Temp.
measurement by outdoor heat exchanger and
control for four-way valve and outdoor fan)
(3) Contents of operation command signal (Serial
signal) from indoor unit controller to outdoor unit
controller
The following three types of signals are sent
from the indoor unit controller.
• Operation mode set on the remote control
• Compressor revolution command signal
defined by indoor temperature and set temperature
(Correction along with variation of room
temperature and correction of indoor heat
exchanger temperature are added.)
• For these two types of signals ( [Operation
mode] and [Compressor revolution] ), the
outdoor unit controller monitors the input
current to the inverter, and perfo rms the
followed operation within the range that current
does not exceed the allowable value.
• Temperature of indoor heat exchanger by
indoor heat exchanger sensor
(Minimum revolution control)
Operations follow ed
to judgment of serial
signal from indoor
side.
– 22 –
Page 23
(4) Contents of operation command signal (Serial
signal) from outdoor unit controller to indoor unit
controller
The following signals are sent from the outdoor
unit controller.
• The current operation mode
• The current compressor revolution
• Outdoor temperature
• Existence of protective circuit operation
For transf erring of these signals, the indoor
unit controller monitors the contents of signals,
and judges existence of trouble occurrence.
Contents of judgment are described below.
• Whether distinction of the current operation
status meets to the operation command
signal
• Whether protective circuit operates
When no signal is received from the outdoor
unit controller, it is assumed as a trouble.
8-1-2. Current Release Control
The outdoor main circuit control section (Inverter
assembly) detects the input current to the outdoor
unit. If the current value with compressor motor
speed instructed from indoor side exceeds the
specified value, the outdoor main circuit control
section controls compressor motor speed by reducing motor speed so that value becomes closest to
the command within the limited value.
8-1-3. Power Factor Improvement Control
Po w er factor improvement control is performed
mainly aiming to reduce the current on much power
consumption of cooling/heating operation. Controlling starts from the time when input power has
reached at a certain point. To be concrete, IGBT of
the power factor impro vement circuit is used, and
the power factor is improved by keeping IGBT on f or
an arbitrary period to widen electro-angle of the
input current.
8-1-1. Capacity Control
The cooling and heating capacity is varied by
changing compressor motor speed. The inverter
changes compressor motor speed by changing AC
220–230–240V power to DC once, and controls
capacity by changing supply power status to the
compressor with transistor module (includes 6
transistors). The outline of the control is as follows:
The revolution position and re volution speed of the
motor are detected by detecting winding electromotive force of the compressor motor under operation,
and the revolution speed is changed so that the
motor drives based upon revolution speed of the
operation command by changing timing (current
transfer timing) to exchange in verter output voltage
and supply power winding.
Detection of the revolution position f or controlling is
performed 12 times per 1 revolution of compressor.
The range of supply power frequency to the compressor differs according to the operation status
(COOL, HEAT, DRY).

8-1-4. Prevent-Freezing Control
The indoor heat exchanger sensor detects refrigerant vapor temperature in COOL/DR Y operation.
If the temperature is below the specified value ,
compressor motor speed is reduced so that operation is performed in temperature below the specified
value to prev ent-freezing of indoor heat exchanger.
8-1-5. P. M. V. (Pulse Modulating Valve)
Using P.M.V., refrigerant flow of refrigeration cycle is
varied for the optimum temperature.
After the power has been turned on, when a serial
operation signal is received from indoor at the first
time, or when PMV alarm is detected and the
equipment is reactivated, move the valve once until
it hits on the stopper for positioning of the valve.
In this case, ticktack sound may be heard.
8-1-6. Louver Control
(1) V e rtical air flow louvers
Positions of v ertical air flow louvers are automatically controlled according to the operation
status (AUTO : A , COOL : , DRY : ,
HEAT : , FAN ONLY : ). Besides, positions
of vertical air flow louvers can be arbitrarily set
by pushing the [FIX] button.
(2) Swing
If the [SWING] button is pushed during running
operation, vertical air flow louvers start swinging.
When the [FIX] button is pushed, swinging stops.

8-1-7. Indoor Fan Control (DC Fan Motor)
(1) The indoor fan is operated by the stepless speed
change DC motor.
(2) For air flow level, speed of the indoor fan motor
is controlled in five steps (LOW, LOW+, MED ,
MED+ and HIGH). If AUTO mode is selected,
the fan motor speed is automatically controlled
by the difference between the preset temperature and the room temperature.

8-1-8. Outdoor Fan Control (DC Fan Motor)
Although the outdoor fan motor drives the outdoor fan by non-step variable system of the re volution speed, the
revolution speed is restricted to three steps on the convenience of controlling. If a strong wind is lashing outside
of the room, the operation may be continued as the outdoor f an stops in order to protect the outdoor fan motor.
If a fan lock occurred due to entering of foreign matter, the air conditioner stops and an alarm is displayed.

2) Room temp. is 19°C to 24°C, and
outside air temp. is 5°C or lower.
3) Defrost operation has been already
performed once.
2) Defrost operation
Operation of the compressor is stopped
once, turn off power coupler for four-way
valve after 10 seconds, and then exchange
the four-wa y v alv e .
After 20 seconds, restart operation of the
compressor. Turn off the outdoor fan just
when the compressor stopped.
If temperature of the indoor heat exchanger
lowered than 38°C , stop the indoor fan.
3) Defrost reset
Resetting operation from defrost to heating is
performed when any one of the fo llo wing
conditions is satisfied.
a. Temperature of the outdoor heat ex-
changer rose to +8°C or higher.
b. A status that temperature of the outdoor
heat exchanger is +5°C or higher continued for 80 seconds.
c. Defrost operation continued for 15 min-
utes.
In resetting defrost operation, the compressor
stops for 50 seconds if defrost has started
under condition a. to c. in item 1), but the
compressor is reset to heating operation
keeping operated if defrost has started under
condition d. in item 1).

9. INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
9-1. Safety Cautions
CAUTIONNew Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation
• THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A) WHICH DOES NOT
DESTRO Y OZONE LAYER.
R410A refrigerant is apt to be affected by impurity such as water, oxidizing membrane, and oils because
pressure of R410A refrigerant is approx. 1.6 times of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with adoption of the new
refrigerant, refrigerating machine oil has been also changed. Therefore, during installation work, be sure that
water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigerating machine oil does not enter into the refrigerating cycle of newrefrigerant air conditioner.
To prevent mixing of refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging
port of the main unit or installation tools are different from those for the conv entional refriger ant. Accordingly,
the exclusive tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A) as shown below .
For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping materials with high pressure-tight force, which were made
for R410A only, so that water or dust does not enter. Moreover, do not use the existing piping because there
are problems about pressure-tight force and inner impurity in the existing piping.
CAUTIONTo Disconnect the Appliance from the Main Power Supply
This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by means of a circuit breaker or a switch with a
contact separation of at least 3mm. The installation fuse (25A D type ) must be used for the
power supply line of this air conditioner.
DANGER
• FOR USE BY QUALIFIED PERSONS ONLY.
• TURN OFF MAIN POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. MAKE SURE
ALL POWER SWITCHES ARE OFF. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE CORRECTLY. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS CONNECTED
BY WRONG WAY, ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE DAMAGED.
• CHECK THE EARTH WIRE IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE INSTALLATION.
• DO NOT INSTALL NEAR CONCENTRA TIONS OF COMB USTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
• TO PREVENT OVERHEATING THE INDOOR UNIT AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE THE UNIT
WELL AWAY (MORE THAN 2M) FROM HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEAT REGISTORS,
FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.
• WHEN MOVING THE AIR-CONDITIONER FOR INSTALLING IT IN ANOTHER PLACE AGAIN, BE VERY
CAREFUL NOT TO GET THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R-22) WITH ANY OTHER GASEOUS BODY
INTO THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS MIXED IN THE REFRIGERANT,
THE GAS PRESSURE IN THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE BECOMES ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT
RESULTINGLY CAUSES BURST OF THE PIPE AND INJURIES ON PERSONS .
• IN THE EVENT THAT THE REFRIGERANT GAS LEAKS OUT OF THE PIPE DURING THE INSTALLATION WORK, IMMEDIATELY LET FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM. IF THE REFRIGERANT GAS IS
HEATED BY FIRE OR SOMETHING ELSE, IT CAUSES GENERATION OF POISONOUS GAS.
WARNING
• Never modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or by by-passing any of the safety interloc k
switches.
• Do not install in a place which cannot bear the weight of the unit. Personal injury and property damage
can result if the unit falls.
• Before doing the electrical work, attach an approved plug to the power supply cord. And make sure the
equipment to be earthed.
• Appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.
If you detect any damage, do not install the unit. Contact your Toshiba dealer immediately.

9-1-4. Installation/Servicing ToolsChanges in the product and components
In the case of an air conditioner using R410A, in order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged accidentally, the service port diameter of the outdoor unit control valve (3 way valve) has been changed.
(1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch)
• In order to increase the pressure resisting strength of the refrigerant piping flare processing diameter and size of
opposite side of flare nuts has been changed. (for copper pipes with nominal dimensions 1/2 and 5/8)

Changes
As pressure is high, it is impossible to measure by means of
conventional gauge. In order to prevent any other refrigerant from
being charged, each port diameter has been changed.
In order to increase pressure resisting strength, hose materials
and port size have been changed (to 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch).
When purchasing a charge hose, be sure to confirm the port size.
As pressure is high and gasification speed is fast, it is difficult to
read the indicated value by means of charging cylinder, as air
bubbles occur.
The size of opposite sides of flare nuts have been increased.
Incidentally,
a common wrench is used for nominal diameters 1/4 and 3/8.
By increasing the clamp bar’s receiving hole, strength of spring in
the tool has been improved.
Used when flare is made by using conventional flare tool.
Connected to conventional vacuum pump. It is necessary to use
an adapter to prevent vacuum pump oil from flowing back to the
charge hose. The charge hose connecting part has two ports-one
for conventional refrigerant (7/16 UNF 20 threads per inch) and
one for R410A. If the vacuum pump oil (mineral) mixes with R410A
a sludge may occur and damage the equipment.

Exclusive for HFC refrigerant.
• Incidentally, the “refrigerant cylinder” comes with the refrigerant designation (R410A) and protector coating in the
U. S’s ARI specified rose color (ARI color code: PMS 507).
• Also, the “charge port and packing for refrigerant cylinder” require 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch corresponding to
the charge hose’s port size.

9-3-3. Evacuating
After the piping has been connected to the indoor unit,
you can perform the air purge together at once.
AIR PURGE
Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the
indoor unit using vacuum pump. Do not use the
refrigerant in the outdoor unit. For details, see the
manual of vacuum pump.
Use a vacuum pump
Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow
prevention function so that inside oil of the pump does
not flow backward into pipes of the air conditioner
when the pump stops. (If inside oil of the vacuum
pump enters into the air conditioner which adopts
R410A, a trouble of the refrigeration cycle may be
caused.)
1. Connect the charge hose from the manifold valve to
the service por t of the gas side packed valve.
2. Connect the charge hose to the port of vacuum pump.
3. Open fully the low pressure side handle of the
gauge manifold valve.
4. Operate the vacuum pump to start for evacuating.
Perform evacuating for about 15 minutes if the
piping length is 20 meters. (15 minutes for 20
meters) (assuming a pump capacity of 27 liters per
minute.) Then confirm that the compound pressure
gauge reading is –101 kPa ( –76 cmHg).
5. Close the low pressure side valve handle of gauge
manifold.
6. Open fully the valve
stem of the packed
valves (both side
of Gas and Liquid).
7. Remove the
charging hose from
the service port.
8. Securely tighten
the caps on the
packed valves.
• Tightening torque for connection of flare pipe
The pressure of R410A ishigher than R22.
(Approx. 1.6 times) Therefore
securely tighten the flare pipes
which connect the outdoor unit
and the indoor unit with the
specified tightening torque using
a torque wrench.
If each flare pipe connects
incorrectly, it may cause not only
a gas leakage but also a trouble
of the refrigeration cycle.
Shaping pipes
1. How to shape the pipes
Shape the pipes along the incused line on the
outdoor unit.
2. How to fit position of the
pipes
Put the edges of the pipes
to the place with a
distance of 85mm from
the incused line.

NOTE :
A large-capacity electrolytic capacitor is used in the
outdoor unit controller (inverter). Therefore, if the
power supply is turned off, charge (charging v oltage
DC280V) remains and discharging takes a lot of
time. After turning off the power source , if touching
the charging section before discharging, an electrical shock may be caused. Discharge the electrolytic
capacitor completely by using soldering iron, etc.
< Discharging method >
(1) Remove the inv erter cover (plating) by opening
four mounting claws .
(2) As shown below, connect the discharge resis-
tance (approx. 100Ω40W) or plug of the soldering iron to voltage between + – terminals of the
C14 (“CAUTION HIGH VOLT A GE 380V” is
indicated.) electrolytic capacitor (500µF/400V)

Operation of air conditioner
When power breaker is turned “ON”, the
operation lamp (Green) of the indoor unit
flashes.
Compressor may not operate even if the
room temperature is within range of
compressor-ON.
In Dry and ECO mode, FAN (air flo w)
display does not change even though FA N
(air flow select) button is operated.
Increasing of compressor motor speed
stops approx. 30 seconds after operation
started, and then compressor motor speed
increases again approx. 30 seconds after.
Description
The OPERATION lamp of the indoor unit flashes when
power source is turned on. If [START/STOP] button is
operated once, flashing stops. (Flashes also in power
failure)
The compressor does not operate while compressor
restart delay timer (3-minutes timer) operates.
The same phenomenon is found after power source has
been turned on because 3-minutes timer operates.
The air flow indication is fixed to [AUTO].
For smooth operation of the compressor, the compressor motor speed is restricted to Max. 41 rps for 2 minutes, and Max.91 rps for 2 minutes to 3 minutes, respectively after the operation has started.
5
The set value of the remote controller
should be below the room temperature.
6
In AUTO mode, the operation mode is
changed.
7
In HEAT mode, the compressor motor
speed does not increase up to the maximum speed or decreases before the
temperature arrives at the set temperature.
10-2. Primary Judgment
To diagnose the troubles, use the following methods.
(1) Judgment by flashing LED of indoor unit
(2) Self-diagnosis by service check remote controller
(3) Judgment of trouble by every symptom
If the set value is above the room temperature, Cooling
operation is not performed. And chec k whether battery of
the remote controller is consumed or not.
After selecting Cool or Heat mode, select an operation
mode again if the compressor keeps stop status for 15
minutes.
The compressor motor speed may decrease by hightemp. release control (Release protective operation by
temp.-up of the indoor heat exchanger) or current
release control.
Firstly use the method (1) for diagnosis. Then, use the method (2) or (3) to diagnose the details of troubles.

(200 mm).
3) Move the protective tube toward the thermal
sensor side and tear the tip of lead wire in
two then strip the covering part.
4) Pass the stripped part through the thermal
constringent tube.
5) Cut the old sensor 100 mm length on the
connector side, and recycle that connector.
6) T ear the lead wire in two on the connector
side and strip the covering part.
7) T wist the leads on the connector and sensor
sides, and solder them.
8) Move the thermal constringent tubes toward
the soldered parts and heat them with the
dryer and constring them.
9) Wind the attached color tape round the both
terminals of the protective tube when
colored protective tube is used.
10) Fix the sensor again.
NOTES :
1) Store the joint part of the sensor and the
connector in the electric parts box.
