1 Pipes must be connected starting from the indoor unit.
Flare nuts must be tightened with a torque wrench.
2 Flare the liquid pipes and gas pipes and apply a thin layer of refrigeration oil
(Applied on site).
Warning:
When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes before starting
the compressor.

Remove the service panel D (3 screws) and the front piping cover A (2 screws) and
rear piping cover B (2 screws).
1 Perform refrigerant piping connections for the indoor/outdoor unit when the out-
door unit's stop valve is completely closed.
2 Vacuum-purge air from the indoor unit and the connection piping.
3 After connecting the refrigerant pipes, check the connected pipes and the indoor
unit for gas leaks. (Refer to 4.4 Refrigerant pipe airtight testing method)
4 Vacuumize the refrigerant lines through the service port of the liquid stop valve
and then open the stop valves completely (for both the liquid and gas stop valves).
This will completely connect the refrigerant lines of the indoor and outdoor units.

Failure to replace and tighten the caps may result in refrigerant leakage. In addi-
tion, do not damage the insides of the valve caps as they act as a seal to prevent
refrigerant leakage.
5 Use sealant to seal the ends of the thermal insulation around the pipe connection
sections to prevent water from entering the thermal insulation.
