The distributor on the low-pressure side must be placed in the outdoor unit that has a larger capacity index of the two, regardless of the relative positions of the
outdoor units or their addresses.
(If outdoor units that have the same capacity are used in combination, the distributor can be placed in either outdoor unit.)
If the distributor is placed in the outdoor unit that has a smaller capacity, refrigerant will not be properly distributed and compressor failure may result.
