(7) Apply the supplied bands 9 at a position 7/16-13/16 in (10 - 20 mm) from
each end of the pipe covers (3456).
(8) If the indoor unit is not connected, fit the supplied pipe covers (with caps, 7
and 8) to the branch box refrigerant piping connections against the unit to
prevent condensation dripping from the pipes. (Fig. 7-4)
(9) Clamp the pipe covers (78) in place with the supplied bands 9.
Note:
A special flare nut (optional or attached to the indoor unit) is needed to
some indoor units.
Please refer to the installation manual of outdoor unit and indoor unit for
details.

(1) In order to prevent refrigerant leaks, make sure that the flare nuts are tightened
according to the specified torques* in Table 3.
* Refrigerant may also leak if the flare nuts are tightened more than the speci-

► Refrigerant charge:
Refer to the installation manual of the outdoor unit.
Use only R410A refrigerant (use of other refrigerants may cause troubles).
Caution:
To avoid excessive strain on the branch box, support the piping with one or
more support(s) 1.5 m [5 ft] or less from the branch box.
Refer to Fig. 7-5 as an example.
