front of the unit.<br />

■ Make sure that condensation drainage can be<br />

conveniently routed away.<br />

■ Do not install near a doorway.<br />

■ Ensure that the space around the left and right of<br />

the unit is more than 30cm. The unit should be<br />

installed as high on the wall as possible, allowing<br />

a minimum of 12cm from ceiling.<br />

How to Fix Installation Plate<br />

The wall you select should be strong and solid enough to prevent<br />

vibration<br />

1. Mount the installation plate on the wall with four<br />

type A screws. If mounting the unit on a concrete<br />

wall, use anchor bolts.<br />

Mount the installation plate horizontally by<br />

aligning the centerline using a level.<br />

Drill a Hole in the Wall<br />

■ Drill the piping hole with a ø70mm hole core drill.<br />

Drill the piping hole at either the right or the left<br />

with the hole slightly slanted to the outdoor side.<br />

2. Measure the wall and mark the centerline. It is also<br />

important to use caution concerning the location<br />

of the installation plate-routing of the wiring to<br />

power outlets is through the walls typically.<br />

Drilling the hole through the wall for piping connections<br />

must be done safely.<br />

Flaring work<br />

Main cause for gas leakage is due to defect in flaring<br />

work. Carry out correct flaring work in the following<br />

procedure.<br />

Cut the pipes and the cable.<br />

■ Use the piping kit accessory or the pipes<br />

purchased locally.<br />

■ Measure the distance between the indoor and the<br />

outdoor unit.<br />

■ Cut the pipes a little longer than measured<br />

distance.<br />

■ Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.<br />

(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness. (Refer to page 32))<br />

7) Always install an earth leakage circuit breaker in a wet or moist area.<br />

8) The following would be caused by voltage drop.<br />

• Vibration of a magnetic switch, which will damage the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance of the normal<br />

function of the overload.<br />

9) The means for disconnection from a power supply shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring and have<br />

an air gap contact separation of at least 3mm in each active(phase) conductors.<br />

<strong>Air</strong> purging<br />

<strong>Air</strong> Purging<br />

<strong>Air</strong> purging<br />

<strong>Air</strong> and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system<br />

have undesirable effects as indicated below.<br />

■ Pressure in the system rises.<br />

■ Operating current rises.<br />

■ Cooling(or heating) efficiency drops.<br />

■ Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and<br />

block capillary tubing.<br />

■ Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration<br />

system.<br />

Therefore, the indoor unit and tubing between the<br />

indoor and outdoor unit must be leak tested and<br />

evacuated to remove any noncondensables and<br />

moisture from the system.<br />

■ Do a leak test of all joints of the tubing(both indoor<br />

and outdoor) and both gas and liquid side service<br />

valves.<br />

Bubbles indicate a leak. Be sure to wipe off the<br />

soap with a clean cloth.<br />

■ After the system is found to be free of leaks,<br />

relieve the nitrogen pressure by loosening the<br />

charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder.<br />

When the system pressure is reduced to normal,<br />

disconnect the hose from the cylinder.<br />

<strong>Air</strong> purging with vacuum pump<br />

Preparation<br />

■ Check that each tube(both liquid and gas side<br />

tubes) between the indoor and outdoor units have<br />

been properly connected and all wiring for the test<br />

run has been completed. Remove the service<br />

valve caps from both the gas and the liquid side<br />

open the valve.<br />

■ Turn the valve stem of gas side valve counterclockwise<br />

to fully open the valve.<br />

■ Loosen the charge hose connected to the gas<br />

side service port slightly to release the pressure,<br />

then remove the hose.<br />

■ Replace the flare nut and its bonnet on the gas<br />

side service port and fasten the flare nut securely<br />

with an adjustable wrench. This process is very<br />

important to prevent leakage from the system.<br />

Operate unit for 15~20 minutes, then check the system<br />

refrigerant charge:<br />

1. Measure the pressure of the gas side service<br />

valve.<br />

2. Measure the temperature of the intake and discharge<br />

of air.<br />

3. Ensure the difference between the intake temperature<br />

and the discharge is more than 8°C<br />

(Cooling) or reversely (Heating).<br />

Discharge air<br />

NOTE: If the actual pressure are higher than shown,<br />

the system is most likely over-charged, and<br />

charge should be removed. If the actual pressure<br />

are lower than shown, the system is most<br />

likely undercharged, and charge should be<br />

added.<br />

The air conditioner is now ready for use.<br />

4~5kg/cm 2 G(56.8~71.0 P.S.I.G.)<br />

This is performed when the unit is to be relocated<br />

or the refrigerant circuit is serviced.<br />

Pump Down means collecting all refrigerant in the outdoor<br />

unit without loss in refrigerant gas.<br />

CAUTION:<br />

Be sure to perform Pump Down procedure with the<br />

unit cooling mode.<br />

Pump Down Procedure<br />

1. Connect a low-pressure gauge manifold hose to the<br />

charge port on the gas side service valve.<br />

2. Open the gas side service valve halfway and purge the<br />

air from the manifold hose using the refrigerant gas.<br />

3. Close the liquid side service valve(all the way in).<br />

4. Turn on the unit's operating switch and start the cooling<br />

operation.<br />

5. When the low-pressure gauge reading becomes 1 to<br />

0.5kg/cm 2 G(14.2 to 7.1 P.S.I.G.), fully close the gas<br />

side valve stem and then quickly turn off the unit. At<br />

that time, Pump Down has been completed and all<br />

refrigerant gas will have been collected in the outdoor<br />

unit.<br />

<strong>Air</strong> purging<br />

Required tools : hexagonal wrench, adjustable wrench,<br />

torque wrenches, wrench to hold the<br />

joints, and gas leak detector.<br />

The additional gas for air purging has been charged<br />

in the outdoor unit.<br />

However, if the flare connections have not be done<br />

correctly and there gas leaks, a gas cylinder and the<br />

charge set will be needed.<br />

The air in the indoor unit and in the piping must be<br />

purged. If air remains in the refrigeration pipes, it will<br />

affect the compressor, reduce to cooling capacity,<br />

and could lead to a malfunction.<br />

Service port nut:<br />

Be sure, using a torque wrench to tighten the service port nut (after using the service port), so that it prevents the<br />

gas leakage from the refrigeration cycle.<br />

CAUTION: Do not leak the gas in the air during <strong>Air</strong> purging.<br />

• Procedure<br />

(1) Recheck the piping connections.<br />

(2) Open the valve stem of the 2-way valve counterclockwise<br />

approximately 90°, wait 10 seconds,<br />

and then set it to closed position.<br />

– Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate<br />

the valve stem.<br />

(3) Check for gas leakage.<br />

– Check the flare connections for gas leakage.<br />

(4) Purge the air from the system.<br />

– Set the 2-way valve to the open position and<br />

remove the cap from the 3-way valve’s service<br />

port.<br />

– Using the hexagonal wrench to press the valve<br />

core pin, discharge for three seconds and then<br />

wait for one minute. Repeat this three times.<br />

(5) Use torque wrench to tighten the service port<br />

nut to a torque of 1.8kg.cm.<br />

(6) Set the 3-way valve to the back seat.<br />

(7) Mount the valve stem nuts to the 2-way and 3-<br />

way valves.<br />

(8) Check for gas leakage.<br />

– At this time, especially check for gas leakage<br />

from the 2-way and 3-way valve’s stem nuts,<br />

and from the service port nut.<br />

CAUTION: If gas leakage are discovered<br />

in step (3) above, take the following<br />

mesures :<br />

If the gas leaks stop when the piping connections<br />

are tightened further, continue working from step (4).<br />

If the gas leaks do not stop when the connections<br />

are retightened, repair the location of the leak, discharge<br />

all of the gas through the service port, and<br />

then recharge with the specified amount of gas from<br />

a gas cylinder.<br />

• Procedure<br />

(1) Connect the charge hose to the charging<br />

cylinder.<br />

– Connect the charge hose which you dis-connected<br />

from the vacuum pump to the valve at<br />

the bottom of the cylinder.<br />

– If you are using a gas cylinder, also use a<br />

scale and reverse the cylinder so that the system<br />

can be charged with liquid.<br />

(2) Purge the air from the charge hose.<br />

– Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder<br />

and press the check valve on the charge set to<br />

purge the air. (Be careful of the liquid refrigerant).<br />

The procedure is the same if using a gas<br />

cylinder.<br />

(3) Open the valve (Lo side on the charge set and<br />

charge the system with liquid refrigerant.<br />

– If the system can not be charged with the specified<br />

amount of refrigerant, it can be charged<br />

with a little at a time (approximately 150g each<br />

time) while operating the air conditioner in the<br />

cooling cycle; however, one time is not sufficient,<br />

wait approximately 1 minute and then<br />

repeat the procedure (pumping down-pin).<br />

\<br />

This is different from previous procedures.<br />

Because you are charging with liquid refrigerant<br />

from the gas side, absolutely do not attempt to<br />

charge with larger amounts of liquid refrigerant<br />

while operating the air conditioner.<br />

(4) Immediately disconnect the charge hose from<br />

the 3-way valve’s service port.<br />

– Stopping partway will allow the gas to be discharged.<br />

– If the system has been charged with liquid<br />

refrigerant while operating the air conditioner<br />

turn off the air conditioner before disconnecting<br />

the hose.<br />

(5) Mount the valve stem nuts and the service<br />

port nut.<br />

– Use torque wrench to tighten the service port<br />

nut to a torque of 1.8 kg.m.<br />

– Be sure to check for gas leakage.<br />

Trouble 2<br />

Product doesn't operate with the remote controller.<br />

Turn on main power.<br />

While the compressor has been stopped, the compressor does not operate<br />

owing to the delaying function for 3 minutes after stopped.<br />

When the compressor stopped Indoor Fan is driven by a low speed.<br />

At this point the wind speed is not controlled by the remote controller.<br />

(When operated in the Sleeping Mode, the wind speed is set to the low speed as force.)<br />

Caused by the remote controller.<br />

Caused by other parts except<br />

the remote controller<br />

When the mark ( ) is displayed in LCD<br />

screen, replace battery.<br />

Check the contact of CN-DISP 1 connector<br />

When the detect switch (double key) inside the<br />

remote controller door is fault, it is impossible to<br />

operate temperature regulating(▲ / ▼) and wind<br />
