7-3-1.Embedding the Tubing and Wiring
Do not connect tubes to locations that are embedded.
Be sure to bind refrigerant tubing and inter-unit
cables together with vinyl tape.
The power cable must be obtained on-site.
(ø2.0: Less than 15 m /ø2.6: Less than 20 m /
ø3.5: Less than 26 m)
Be sure to apply the provided labels to both ends of
the inter-unit cables to prevent miswiring.
Securely seal the end of embedded tubing with vinyl
tape in order to prevent dirt or moisture entry.
In order to prevent insulation breakdown and
ground faults, do not allow the wire ends to contact
rainwater, or be subject to dew condensation.

7-3-2. Installing Outdoor Unit

(1) Select a location for installing the outdoor unit.


(Refer to 7-2-2. Outdoor Unit.)
(2) The connection valves are stored inside the unit.
Remove the inspection panel and remove the
cable fasteners. (To remove the inspection panel,
remove the 3 screws, then push the panel down
and pull it toward you.)
(Refer to 7-2-4. Diagram of Outdoor Unit Installation.)
(3) Remove the tubing panel in order to attach covers
as needed, according to the number of indoor units.

between indoor and outdoor units. In this method, the copper
tubes are flared at each end and connected with flare nuts.

7-3-4. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool


For creating the flare, use the special R410A flare tool. The
previous (R22) flare tool may also be used. (Fig. 10)
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a tube
cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 30- 50 cm
longer than the tubing length you estimate.
(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a tube
reamer or file. This process is important and should be
done carefully to make a good flare. (Fig. 8) Fig. 8

7-3-10. Refrigerant Operation System
When the air conditioner is turned ON, the compressor starts to work. The compressor absorbs low-temperature and
low-pressure refrigerant from the evaporator; the refrigerant is then compressed into high-temperature and high-
pressure refrigerant gas and goes into the condenser (COMPRESSION). This high-temperature and high-pressure
refrigerant gas is condensed into liquid refrigerant; during the CONDENSING process, heat is released to the out-
doors through the condenser.
High-pressure and high-temperature liquid refrigerant goes into the capillary tube to reduce the pressure and to
lower the temperature (PRESSURE REDUCTION). The low-pressure liquid refrigerant passed through the capillary
tube is sent to the evaporator for evaporation. In this EVAPORATION process, heat in the room is absorbed. This
cycle is repeated until the room temperature is lowered to the target level.
During the heating cycle, the direction of refrigerant flow is reversed by a 4-way valve. As a result, the condenser
draws heat from the outdoor air and the evaporator supplies hot air to the room.

(11) Replace the flare nut on the wide tube service
port and fasten the flare nut securely with an
adjustable wrench or box wrench. Next, mount
the valve cap and tighten it with a torque wrench
(the cap needs to be tightened with the torque of
200 kg-cm). This process is very important to pre-
vent gas from leaking from the system.

(12) Test run the air conditioner . (See page 20.)


(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid
soap to check for any gas leaks around the ser-
vice valves or caps.

(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and
the air conditioner is ready for actual operation.

7-5. Wiring Instructions

7-5-1. General Precautions on Wiring

(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit


as shown on its nameplate, then carry out the
wiring closely following the wiring diagram.

(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for


each unit, with a power supply disconnect and cir-
cuit breaker for overcurrent protection provided in
the exclusive line.

(3) To prevent possible hazard due to insulation fail-


ure, the unit must be grounded.

(4) Each wiring connection must be done tightly and in


accordance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong
wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or become
damaged.

(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,


compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.

(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can


be very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept
no responsibility for any damage or misoperation
that occurs as a result of such unauthorized

7-6. Test Run
Performing a test run
Refer to the test run procedures in the indoor unit
installation manual.
Perform the test run.
If the room temperature is 15˚C or below, it may not
be possible to check for tubing errors with cooling
operation. If this occurs, perform heating operation
and check that warm air is discharged from indoor unit.
If there is cold air mixed in with the warm air, check the
tubing connections again.

Checking tubing and wiring

Perform the test run and check that operation is nor-


mal.

CAUTION

Stop operation immediately if there is an error in


tubing or wiring. Turn the power (breaker) to OFF,
and check whether the inter-unit cables are con-
nected incorrectly. Correct the connections.

If there is an error in tubing, pump-down must be


performed. Be sure to perform pump-down. After
making corrections, again purge the air from the
tubes.

After the cooling or drying operation has stopped, the indoor fan runs for about 30
seconds to dry out the inside of the air conditioner. (The operating lamps remain off.)
The flap closes after the fan has stopped.
If the room temperature rises above the temperature setting during a drying operation,
the unit performs similar operation to cooling, and when the room temperature approaches
the temperature setting, it performs the humidity-priority drying operation.
The drying operation does not serve to raise the room temperature. (When the outside
air temperature is low or when the heat quantity inside the room is low, the room
temperature will not rise.)
A change made to the temperature setting remains stored in the memory even after
operation has stopped.
If the temperature setting is lowered during a drying operation so that the unit has
switched to a cooling operation, the outdoor unit shuts down for 3 minutes. (This happens
only when one indoor unit is used.)
When the unit is running in the drying operation mode while the temperature setting
is higher than the room temperature, the humidity may not be reduced. In a case like
this, select a temperature setting which is lower than the current room temperature,
and perform the drying operation.

NOTE This appliance has a built-in 3-minute time delay circuit to ensure reliable operation. When
the operation button is pressed, the compressor will start running within three minutes.

13. TROUBLESHOOTING
Precautions before performing inspection or repair

After checking the self-diagnostics monitor, turn the power OFF before starting inspection or repair.
High-capacity electrolytic capacitors are used inside the outdoor unit controller (inverter). They retain an electrical
charge (charging voltage DC 280V) even after the power is turned OFF, and some time is required for the charge to
dissipate. Be careful not to touch any electrified parts before the controller LED (red) turns OFF.
If the outdoor controller is normal, approximately 30 seconds will be required for the charge to dissipate. However,
allow at least 5 minutes for the charge to dissipate if there is thought to be any trouble with the outdoor controller.
After inspecition or repair is completed, be sure to move the operation switch to the DEMO position, turn the power
ON, and erase the diagnostics contents.

Method of self-diagnostics DEMO


TEST
If the indoor unit operation lamp is flashing every 0.5 seconds, follow the
procedure below to perform detailed trouble diagnostics.

ON
NOTE
OFF

1: If the operation lamp flashes every 0.5 seconds immediately when the power is
turned ON, there is an external ROM (OTP data) failure on the indoor circuit Operation selector
board or ROM socket insertion problem, or the ROM has not been installed. Ordinarily, this switch should
be in the ON position.
2: The failure mode is stored in memory even when the power is not ON. Follow The OFF, TEST, and DEMO
positions are used for
the procedure below to perform diagnostics.
inspection.

PROCEDURE

* Turn the power switch ON.


* Move the operation selcetor on the main unit to OFF (self-diagnostics).
* If there is a sensor failure or a protective function has activated, self-diagnostics lamps 1, 2, and 3 will illuminate in the
following pattern: 5 seconds flashing (illuminated) + 2 seconds OFF. (Buzzer sounds once while lamps are OFF)
Note: If there is no trouble, then self-diagnostics lamps 1, 2, and 3 do not illuminate, and the buzzer does not sound.
* Diagnostics is completed when the buzzer sounds 3 beeps.
* After inspection or repair is completed, be sure to move the operation selector to the DEMO position, turn the power
ON, and erase the diagnostics contents. Then move the selector to the OFF position and check that the diagnostics
contents have been erased before using the unit.

Details of Self-Diagnostics
When the operation selector on the indoor unit is moved from the ON or TEST position to the OFF (Self-diagnostics)
position, the indicator lamps on the indoor unit will flash (or remain ON) for 5 seconds and then turn OFF for 2 seconds
(buzzer sounds once) to indicate the presence of a sensor failure or the activation of a protective function.
Self-diagnostics is completed when the buzzer sounds 3 beeps.
If there is no trouble, the lamps do not flash (illuminate). Also note that the corresponding parts listed below may not be
present in some models.

<Noise malfunction and electromagnetic interference>
An inverter A/C operates using pulse signal control and high frequencies. Therefore, it is susceptible to the effects of external
noise, and is likely to cause electromagnetic interference with nearby wireless devices.
A noise filter is installed for ordinary use, preventing these problems. However, depending on the installation conditions, these
effects may still occur. Please pay attention to the points listed below.

Noise malfunction
This refers to the application of high-frequency noise to the signal wires, resulting in abnormal signal pulses and malfunction.

Electromagnetic interference
This refers to the noise generated by high-speed switching of the microcomputer and compressor. This noise radiates through
space and returns to electric wiring, affecting any wireless devices (televisions, radios, etc.) located nearby.
