Dangerous Voltage
1.1 Cautions in Repair
Be sure to disconnect the power cable plug from the plug socket before disas-
sembling the equipment for a repair.Internal components and circuit boards are at
main potential when the equipment is connected to the power cables. This high
voltage is extremely dangerous and may cause death or severe injury if come in
contact with it.
Do not touch the discharging refrigerant gas during the repair work.
The discharging refrigerant gas.The refrigerant gas can cause frostbite.
Release the refrigerant gas completely at a well-ventilated place first.
Otherwise, when the pipe is disconnected, refrigerant gas or refrigerating
machine oil discharges and it Can cause injury.
When the refrigerant gas leaks during work, perform ventilation. If the refrigerant
gas comes in contact with a fire, poisonous gas generates. A case of leakage of
the refrigerant and the closed room full with gas is dangerous because a short-
age of oxygen occurs. Be sure to perform ventilation.
When removing the front panel or cabinet, execute short-circuit and discharge
between high voltage capacitor terminals. If discharge is not executed, an electric
shock is caused by high voltage resulting in a death or injury.
Do not turn the air-conditioner ON or OFF by plugging or unplugging the power
plug. There is risk of fire or electrical shock.

Part 1 General Information
Do not use a defective or underrated circuit breaker. Use the correctly rated
breaker and fuse. Otherwise there is a risk of fire or electric shock.
Install the panel and the cover of control box securely. Otherwise there is risk of
fire or electric shock due to dust, water etc.
Indoor/outdoor wiring connections must be secured tightly and the cable should
be routed properly so that there is no force pulling the cable from the connection
terminals. Improper or loose connections can cause heat generation or fire.
Do not touch, operate, or repaire the product with wet hands. Holding the plug by
hand when taking out. Otherwise there is risk of electric shock or fire.
Do not turn on the breaker when the front panel and cabinet are removed.
Be sure to ground the air conditioner with an earthing conductor connected to
the earthing terminal.
Conduct repair works after checking that the refrigerating cycle section has
cooled down sufficiently. Otherwise, working on the unit, the hot refrigerating
cycle section can cause burns.
Do not tilt the unit while removing panels. Otherwise, the water inside the unit
can spill and wet floor.
Do not use the welder in a well-ventilated place. Using the welder in an enclosed
room can cause oxygen deficiency.
Be sure to turn off power switch before connecting or disconnecting connector,
or parts damage may be occur.

Part 1 General Information
1.2 Inspections after Repair
Check to see if the power cable plug is not dirty or loose. If the plug is dusty or
loose it can cause an electrical shock or fire.
Do not use a joined power cable or extension cable, or share the same power
outlet with other electrical appliances. otherwise, it can cause an electrical shock,
excessive heat generation or fire.
Do not insert hands or other objects through the air inlet or outlet while the prod-
uct is operating. There are sharp and moving parts that could cause personal
injury.
Do not block the inlet or outlet of air flow. It may cause product failure
Check to see if the parts are mounted correctly and wires are connected.
Improper installation and connections can cause an electric shock or an injury.
Check whether the installation platform or frame has corroded. Corroded installa-
tion platform or frame can cause the unit to fall, resulting in injury.
Be sure to check whether the earth wire is correctly connected.
After the work has finished, be sure to do an insulation test to check whether the
resistance is 2[Mohm] or more between the charge section and the non-charge
metal section (Earth position). If the resistance value is low, a disaster such as a
leak or electric shock is caused at user’s side.
Check the drainage of the indoor unit after the repair. If drainage is faulty the
water may enter the room and wet floor.

• Procedure
This is different from previous procedures.
Because you are charging with liquid refrigerant
from the gas side, absolutely do not attempt to
charge with larger amounts of liquid refrigerant
while operating the air conditioner.
(1) Connect the charge hose to the charging
cylinder.
– Connect the charge hose which you dis-con-
nected from the vacuum pump to the valve at
the bottom of the cylinder.
– If you are using a gas cylinder, also use a
scale and reverse the cylinder so that the sys-
tem can be charged with liquid.
(4) Immediately disconnect the charge hose from
the 3-way valve’s service port.
(2) Purge the air from the charge hose.
– Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder
and press the check valve on the charge set to
purge the air. (Be careful of the liquid refriger-
ant). The procedure is the same if using a gas
cylinder.
– Stopping partway will allow the gas to be dis-
charged.
– If the system has been charged with liquid
refrigerant while operating the air conditioner
turn off the air conditioner before disconnecting
the hose.
(3) Open the valve (Lo side on the charge set and
charge the system with liquid refrigerant.
– If the system can not be charged with the spec-
ified amount of refrigerant, it can be charged
with a little at a time (approximately 150g each
time) while operating the air conditioner in the
cooling cycle; however, one time is not suffi-
cient, wait approximately 1 minute and then
repeat the procedure (pumping down-pin).
(5) Mount the valve stem nuts and the service
port nut.
– Use torque wrench to tighten the service port
nut to a torque of 1.8 kg.m.
– Be sure to check for gas leakage.
