2 Adding refrigerant without using leak detection function
Charge with the outdoor unit at standstill
1. Calculate how much refrigerant to be added using the formula
explained in the chapter "How to calculate the additional
refrigerant to be charged" on page 9.
2. Open valve C (valves A and B and the stop valves must be left
closed) and charge the required amount of refrigerant through
the liquid side stop valve service port.
When the required amount of refrigerant is fully charged,
close valve C. Record the amount of refrigerant that was
added on the additional refrigerant charge label provided
with the unit and attach it on the back side of the front panel.
Perform the test procedure as described in "In case
refrigerant was added without using the leak detection
function (pre-charging, charging in heating mode)" on
page 26.
When the additional charging is not complete, perform the
procedure explained in the chapter "Charge with operating
outdoor unit" on page 20.
Charge with operating outdoor unit
Charge the refrigerant through valve A.
1. Start of charging refrigerant manually
- Open the liquid and gas side stop valves and the service port
stop valve. (Valves A, B and C must be closed.)
- Close all frontpanels except the electric box frontpanel and
turn the power ON.
- Make sure all indoor units are connected, refer to "11.3. How
to check how many units are connected" on page 16.
- If the H2P led is not flashing (in 12 minutes time after turning
on the power), make sure it is displayed as shown below.
If the H2P led is flashing, check the malfunction code on the
remote controller "4 Remote controller malfunction code
display" on page 21.

5. Charging mode judgement
If the indoor temperature is 20°C DB or lower, charging in
cooling mode is not possible in some cases. The unit will
automatically select the cooling mode or heating mode for
charging.
When charging in cooling mode, the unit will stop
operating when the required amount of refrigerant is
charged.
During charging in heating mode, a person must
manually close valve A when complete charging is
finished. Calculate how much refrigerant to be added
using the formula explained in the chapter "How to
calculate the additional refrigerant to be charged" on
page 9.
For the cooling only models, heating mode can not be
selected. In this case, the led disply will indicate out of
range. Refer to the procedure as described in "5 Final
adjustment of the amount of refrigerant" on page 22.
