Warning  
If refrigerant gas blows off during the work, do not touch the refrigerant gas as it may cause frostbite.  
Prohibit  
If refrigerant gas leaks during the work, ventilate the room.  
If refrigerant gas catches fire, harmful gas may be generated.  
Do not mix any gas other than the specified refrigerant gas in the refrigerating cycle.  
If air or other contaminants mix with the gas, pressure will become extremely high in the refrigerating cycle,  
which may cause a unit breakdown."  
Prohibit  
When the welded section of the compressor intake or discharge pipe is to be disconnected, perform it in  
a well-ventilated place after sufficiently recovering the refrigerant gas.  
Any residue gas may jet out refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, which may cause an injury.  
When the work is to be performed in a high place (About 2 meters or more), make sure to wear a safety helmet,  
gloves and safety belt. Insufficient safety gear may cause a serious injury in case of a fall.  
When the unit is to be relocated, confirm that the new installation location has sufficient strength for the weight of the unit.  
Insufficient strength of the installation location and incomplete installation work may cause an injury due to  
the unit falling.  
When the remote controller batteries are replaced, dispose of the old batteries out of the reach of children.  
If a child swallows a battery, make sure that the child gets immediate medical attention.  
Caution  
Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may cause an electric shock or fire.  
Prohibit  
For the repair work in places with high humidity or moisture, make sure to ground the unit.  
Failure to do so may cause an electric shock.  
Confirm that the component attachment position, wiring condition, soldering condition and connector connection  
are normal.  
If not, it may cause overheating or fire.  
Confirm that the temperature around the compressor is not too high, and then perform the repair work.  
Failure to do so may cause a burn.  
Perform welding work in a place with good ventilation.  
If the work is performed in a poorly ventilated area, it might cause a lack of oxygen.  
If the installation plate or attachment frame has deteriorated due to corrosion, etc., replace it.  
Failure to do so may cause an injury due to the unit falling.  
When the cleaning is to be performed, make sure to turn off the power and pull out the plug.  
Touching the fan that is rotating at high speed may result in an injury.  
When the indoor unit is to be removed, do not place it on an incline.  
Doing so may cause wet furniture because water left inside may trickle down.  
Prohibit  
Prohibit  
Do not hold the sharp end of the unit or the aluminum fins, as it may cause an injury to your hand or finger.  
After repairs, make sure to measure the insulation resistance and confirm that the value is 1 Mohm or more.  
Any insulation error may cause an electric shock.  
After repairs, make sure to check the drainage of the indoor unit.  
Inappropriate drainage may cause wet furniture and floors due to water leakage.

7. MAINTENANCE  
7-1. Address Setting of the Remote  
Controller  
The address can be set in order to prevent  
interference between remote controllers when two  
indoor units are installed near each other. The  
address is normally set to "A." To set a different  
address, it is necessary to change the address on the  
second remote controller.  
Fig. 1  
NOTE  
Once changed, you cannot restore the original  
address setting of the air conditioner.  
(1) Switch on the power source.  
(2) Break the address-setting tab marked "A" on the  
second remote controller to change the address  
(Fig. 1). When the tab is removed, the address is  
automatically set to B (Fig. 2).  
ACL button  
(3) Press and hold the remote controller HIGH  
POWER button and 1 HR TIMER button. Then,  
press and hold the ACL (reset) button with a  
pointed object such as the tip of a pen. After 5  
seconds, release ACL button first, then release  
HIGH POWER and 1 HR. TIMER buttons, "oP-1"  
(test run) appears, blinking in the remote  
controller clock display area.  
Fig. 2  
(4) Each time the 1 HR TIMER button is pressed, the  
display changes as shown below. Press this  
button 2 times to change the display to "oP-7"  
(address setting). (Fig. 3)

(5) "oP-7" has now been selected for address setting.  
(6) Press the ON/OFF operation button on the remote  
controller. (Fig. 3) Check that the "beep" signal  
received sound is heard from the second indoor  
unit (approximately 5 times). The sound you hear  
is the signal that the remote controller address  
has been changed.

(continuously for 2 minutes or longer), the compressor stops.  
Once the freeze condition is detected, the air conditioner will  
work less than the maximum frequency until it is turned off.  
CT (Peak current cut-off control)  
This function prevents the circuit breaker or fuse from operating  
to open the circuit. This function works when electrical current  
has increased due to an increase in the cooling load,  
or to a decrease in the power supply voltage. In these cases,  
operation frequency is reduced or operation is interrupted auto-  
matically to control the electrical current for operation.  
(CLxx models only)  
NOTE  
The Freeze Prevention Control during the Low Ambient Cooling  
Mode (outside air temperature:59°F(15°C) or lower) is as follows.  
The compressor stops when the temperature of indoor heat  
exchanger becomes less than 36°F(2°C).  
The compressor restarts when the temperature of indoor heat  
exchanger becomes 46°F(8°C) or higher.  
When the cause of the increase in electrical current is rectified,  
the system will resume operation in the original mode.

9. TROUBLESHOOTING (BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE)  
9-1. 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 310V) 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.  
9-2. Method of Self-Diagnostics  
< Clock display >  
Follow the procedure below to perform detailed trouble diagnostics.  
Test run mode  
Self-diagnostics mode  
NOTE  
1:If the operation lamp blinks every 0.5 seconds immediately when the  
power is turned ON, there is an external ROM (OTP data) failure on the  
indoor circuit board, or a ROM socket insertion problem, or the ROM  
has not been installed.  
2:The failure mode is stored in memory even when the power is not ON.  
Follow the procedure below to perform diagnostics.  
PROCEDURE  
ON/OFF

button  
Step 2: Next, press the 1 HR TIMER button once to change the display  
from "oP-1" to "oP-3" (self-diagnostics). (The display continues to  
blink.)  
Step 3: Finally press the ON/OFF button to engage self-diagnostics mode.  
• The self-diagnostics function utilizes the 3 indicator lamps on the main  
unit, in combinations of ON lamps, blinking lamps, and OFF lamps, to  
report the existence of sensor trouble or a protective operation. (The  
lamps blink or remain ON for 5 seconds, then turn OFF for 2 seconds.)  
Self-diagnostics is completed when the buzzer sounds 3 short beeps.  
• A maximum of 3 self-diagnostics reports are displayed, for 5 seconds  
each, beginning with the most recent report. Following this display the  
lamps turn OFF. In order to view the self-diagnostics results again,  
press the ON/OFF button again.

9-3. Checking the Indoor and Outdoor Units  
(1) Checking the indoor unit  
No.  
Control  
Check items (unit operation)  
The rated voltage must be present between inter-unit wirings 1 and 2.  
1
Use the remote controller to operate the  
unit in "TEST run" mode. To determine  
whether the mode is currently in  
"TEST run" mode, check the 3 indicator  
lamps on the unit. If all 3 are blinking,  
the current mode is "TEST run."  
Connect a 5 k ohm resistor between inter-unit wirings 2 and 3. When the  
voltage at both ends is measured, approximately 12 to 15V DC must  
be output and the multimeter pointer must bounce once every 8  
seconds.  
Or instead of measuring the voltage, you can insert an LED jig and  
check that the LED flickers once every 8 seconds.  
If there are no problems with the above, then check the outdoor unit.  
For the "Test run" procedure, refer to the Appendix B "Installation Instructions".  
(2) Checking the outdoor unit  
No.  
Control  
Check items (unit operation)

11. REFRIGERANT R410A:  
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING UNIT  
11-1. Characteristics of New Refrigerant R410A  
11-1-1. What is New Refrigerant R410A?  
R410A is a new refrigerant that contains two types of pseudo-non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture. Its  
refrigeration capacity and energy efficiency are about the same level as the conventional refrigerant, R22.  
11-1-2. Components (mixing proportions)  
HFC32 (50%) / HFC125 (50%)  
11-1-3. Characteristics  
Less toxic, more chemically stable refrigerant  
The composition of refrigerant R410A changes whether it is in a gaseous phase or liquid phase. Thus, when  
there is a refrigerant leak the basic performance of the air conditioner may be degraded because of a change in  
composition of the remaining refrigerant. Therefore, do not add new refrigerant. Instead, recover the  
remaining refrigerant with the refrigerant recovery unit. Then, after evacuation, totally recharge the specified  
amount of refrigerant with the new refrigerant at its normal mixed composition state (in liquid phase).  
When refrigerant R410A is used, the composition will differ depending on whether it is in gaseous or liquid  
phase, and the basic performance of the air conditioner will be degraded if it is charged while the refrigerant is in  
gaseous state. Thus, always charge the refrigerant while it is in liquid phase.  
Ether-type oil is used for compressor oil for R410A-type units, which is different  
CAUTION  
from the mineral oil used for R22. Thus more attention to moisture prevention and  
faster replacement work compared with conventional models are required.  
62

11-2. Checklist before Servicing  
Use a clutch-type flare tool for R410A or the conventional flare tool. Note that sizes of the resultant flares differ  
between these two tools. Where a conventional flare tool is used, make sure to observe A Specification (amount of  
extrusion) by using the flare spacer.

Flare tool for R410A  
Conventional flare tool (R22)  
Tubing precautions  
Refrigerant R410A is more easily affected by dust or moisture compared with R22, thus be sure to temporarily  
cover the ends of the tubing with caps or tape prior to installation.  
Never use 0.0276" (0.7 mm)-thick copper tubing or tubing which is less than 0.0315" (0.8 mm) in thickness, since  
air conditioners with R410A are subject to higher pressure than those using R22 and R407C.  
No addition of compressor oil for R410A  
No additional charge of compressor oil is permitted.  
No use of refrigerant other than R410A  
Never use a refrigerant other than R410A.  
If refrigerant R410A is exposed to fire  
Through welding, etc., toxic gas may be released when R410A refrigerant is exposed to fire. Therefore, be sure  
to provide ample ventilation during installation work.  
Caution in case of R410A leak  
Check for possible leak points with the special leak detector for R410A. If a leak occurs inside the room,  
immediately provide thorough ventilation.

Bender  
Tools which can be com-  
monly used for R22,  
R407C, and R410A  
Torque wrench  
Cutter, reamer  
Welding tool, nitrogen gas cylinder  
The above tools specifically for R410A must not be used for R22 and R407C.  
Doing so will cause malfunction of the unit.  
CAUTION  
For the above vacuum pump (*1, *2) and vacuum pump adapter (*3), those for  
R22-type units can be used for R410A-type. However, they must be used  
exclusively for R410A and never alternately with R22 and R407C.  
To prevent other refrigerants (R22, R407C) from being mistakenly charged to this unit, shape and external  
diameter of the service port screw has been altered.  
<External diameter of service port> R410A : 5/16"  
R22, R407C : 1/4"  
11-4. Tubing Installation Procedures  
When the tubes are connected, always apply HAB oil on the flare portions to improve the sealing of tubing.  
The following is the HAB oil generally used:  
Esso: ZERICE S32  
NOTE  
For details on tubing installation procedures, refer to the installation manuals attached to the indoor  
unit and outdoor unit.

11-5. In Case of Compressor Malfunction  
Should the compressor malfunction, be sure to make the switch to a replacement  
compressor as quickly as possible.  
CAUTION  
Use only the tools indicated exclusively for R410A. See "11-3. Tools  
Specifically for R410A."  
11-5-1. Procedure for Replacing Compressor  
(1) Recovering refrigerant  
Any remaining refrigerant inside the unit should not be  
released to the atmosphere, but recovered using the  
refrigerant recovery unit for R410A.  
(1) Recover refrigerant  
OK  
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant, since it will contain  
impurities.  
(2) Replacing Compressor  
(2) Replace compressor  
OK  
Soon after removing seals of both discharge and suction  
tubes of the new compressor, replace it quickly.  
(3) Checking for sealing  
Use nitrogen gas for the pressurized gas, and never use a  
refrigerant other than R410A. Also do not use oxygen or  
any flammable gas.  
(3) Check for sealing  
OK  
(4) Evacuation  
Use a solenoid valve-installed vacuum pump so that  
even if power is cut off in the middle of evacuation of air  
due to a power interruption, the valve will prevent the  
pump oil from flowing back.  
(4) Evacuation  
OK  
The equipment may be damaged if moisture remains in  
the tubing, thus carry out the evacuation thoroughly.  
When using a vacuum pump with exhaust air volume more  
than 0.883 cu.ft./min. and ultimate vacuum pressure rate  
of 50 micron Hg.  
(5) Recharge  
Standard time for evacuation

(5) Recharging  
Be sure to charge the specified amount of  
Configuration and characteristics of cylinders  
Valve  
refrigerant in liquid state using the service port  
of the wide tube service valve. The proper  
amount is listed on the unit's nameplate.  
When the entire amount cannot be charged all at  
once, charge gradually while operating the unit in  
Cooling Operation.  
Liquid  
Never charge a large amount  
CAUTION  
of liquid refrigerant at once to  
the unit. This may cause  
damage to the compressor.  
Single valve  
Charge liquid refrigerant with  
cylinder in up-side-down position.  
When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use an  
electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In this  
case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylinder  
becomes less than 20% of the fully-charged  
amount, the composition of the refrigerant starts  
to change. Thus, do not use the refrigerant if  
the amount in the charging cylinder is less  
than 20%.  
Fig. 1  
Valve  
Also, charge the minimum necessary amount to  
the charging cylinder before using it to charge  
the air conditioning unit.  
Example:  
Liquid  
In case of charging refrigerant to a unit requiring  
1.68 lb. (0.76 Kg) using a capacity of a 22 lb. (10  
Kg) cylinder, the minimum necessary amount for  
the cylinder is:  
Single valve (with siphon tube)  
Charge with cylinder in normal position.  
1.68 + 22 0.20 = 6.08 lb.  
(0.76 + 10 0.20 = 2.76 Kg)  
Fig. 2  
For the remaining refrigerant, refer to the  
instructions of the refrigerant manufacturer.  
If using a charging cylinder, transfer the specified  
amount of liquid refrigerant from the refrigerant  
cylinder to the charging cylinder.  
NO!

carry out repairs, then recharge the refrigerant.  
(1) Detecting Leaks  
Use the detector for R410A to locate refrigerant leak  
points.  
(1) Detect leaks  
(2) Recovering refrigerant  
Never release the gas to the atmosphere; recover  
OK  
residual refrigerant using the refrigerant recovery unit for  
R410A, instead.  
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant because its  
composition will have been altered.  
(2) Recover refrigerant  
OK  
(3) Welding leaking points  
Confirm again that no residual refrigerant exists in the unit  
before starting welding.  
(3) Weld leaking points  
OK

• To prevent possible hazards from insulation failure,  
the unit must be grounded.  
• We recommend that this air conditioner be installed  
properly by qualified installation technicians in  
accordance with the Installation Instructions  
provided with the unit.  
• Before installation, check that the voltage of the electric  
supply in your home or office is the same as the voltage  
shown on the nameplate.  
• Do not clean inside the indoor and outdoor units by users.  
Engage authorized dealer or specialist for cleaning.  
• In case of malfunction of this appliance, do not repair by  
yourself. Contact to the sales dealer or service dealer for a  
repair.  
• Refrigerant gas leakage may cause fire.  
• For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and  
also to disconnect the power before cleaning.  
• Pull off the power plug from a receptacle, or switch off the  
breaker, or switch off the power disconnecting mean to  
isolate the air conditioner from the main power supply in  
case of emergency.  
• Do not install this air conditioner  
where there are fumes or flammable  
gases, or in an extremely humid space  
such as a greenhouse.  
• Do not install the air conditioner where

SPECIAL REMARKS  
‘‘DRY’’ ( ) Operation  
How it works?  
• Once the room temperature reaches the level that was set, the  
unit’s operation frequency is changed automatically.  
• During DRY operation, the fan speed automatically runs at lower  
speed for providing a comfortable breeze.  
• ‘‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 59 °F  
or less.  
Night Setback Mode is used for saving energy.  
Press the NIGHT SETBACK button while unit is operating.  
The  
mark appears in the display.  
To release the night setback function, press the NIGHT SETBACK  
button again.  
Cooling ( ) operation  
• Sometimes the indoor unit may not get to the set fan speed such as  
LOW under cool operation at very low outdoor temperatures due to  
the indoor unit being protected from ice or frost when combined with  
the outdoor unit for Low Ambient Cooling models.  
In Cooling and DRY Mode: ( and  
)
When the night setback mode is selected, the air conditioner  
automatically raises the temperature setting 2 °F when 30 minutes  
have passed after the selection was made, and then another 2 °F  
after another 30 minutes have passed, regardless of the indoor  
temperature when night setback was selected. This enables you  
to save energy without sacrificing comfort. This function is  
convenient when gentle cooling is needed.  
Power failure during operation  
• In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is  
resumed, the unit will restart automatically in approximately  
5 minutes by the remote controller.

TIMER  
ADJUSTING THE AIRFLOW  
DIRECTION  
The vertical airflow can be adjusted by moving the flap with the  
remote controller. Do not move the flap with your hands. Confirm that  
the remote controller has been turned on. Use the FLAP button to  
set either the sweep function or one of the six airflow direction  
settings.  
1. 1-Hour OFF Timer  
A. Sweep function  
The flap starts moving  
up and down to deliver  
air over the sweep  
range.  
This function causes the unit to operate for one hour and then  
stop, regardless of whether the unit is on or off when this  
button is pressed.

C. Auto flap function  
The flap is set to  
the  
recommended  
position.  
NOTE  
• If, while the 1-Hour Timer function is operating, the 1HR. TIMER  
button is pressed once to cancel the function and then again, the  
unit continues to operate for one hour from that point in time and  
then stops.  
NOTE  
• It is not possible to use the OFF Timer and 1-Hour OFF Timer  
together. Whichever function is set last takes precedence. If the 1  
HR. TIMER button is pressed while the TIMER OFF function  
operates, the OFF Timer is cancelled and the unit will stop  
operating one hour later.  
The flap automatically closes when the unit is off.  
CAUTION  
• Use the FLAP button on the remote controller to adjust the  
position of the flap. If you move the flap by hand, the flap  
position according to the remote controller and the actual  
flap position may no longer match. If this should happen,  
shut off the unit, wait for the flap to close, and then turn on  
the unit again; the flap position will now be normal again.  
• Do not have the flap pointed down during cooling operation.  
Condensation may begin to form around the air vent and drip  
down.

repeat timer  
The 1-Hour OFF Timer setting is given priority over the DAILY ON/  
OFF REPEAT setting.  
TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING  
Avoid  
• Do not block neither the air intake nor the air outlet. It may  
cause less performance, and may leads to malfunctions.  
• Do not let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or  
curtains. If the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the  
sun, it will take longer to cool the room.  
Do  
• Always try to keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “CARE AND  
CLEANING”.) A clogged filter will impair the performance of the  
unit.  
To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep windows, doors and  
any other openings closed.

When Transporting  
IMPORTANT!  
Please Read Before Starting  
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and out-  
door units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees when  
lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin alu-  
minum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.  
This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating  
standards. As the installer or service person, it is an important  
part of your job to install or service the system so it operates  
safely and efficiently.  
When Installing…  
Select an installation location which is rigid and strong  
enough to support or hold the unit, and select a location for  
easy maintenance.  
For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you  
must:  
Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.  
…In a Ceiling or Wall  
Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.  
Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the  
unit’s weight. It may be necessary to construct a strong  
wood or metal frame to provide added support.  
Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.  
Pay close attention to all warning and caution notices  
given in this manual.  
This symbol refers to a hazard  
or unsafe practice which can  
result in severe personal injury  
or death.  
…In a Room  
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent  
“sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to  
walls and floors.  
WARNING  
This symbol refers to a hazard  
or unsafe practice which can  
result in personal injury or prod-  
uct or property damage.  
Keep the fire alarm and the air  
outlet at least 1.5 m away from  
the unit.  
CAUTION  
CAUTION  
If Necessary, Get Help  
…In Moist or Uneven Locations  
These instructions are all you need for most installation  
sites and maintenance conditions. If you require help for a  
special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your  
certified dealer for additional instructions.  
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a  
solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents  
water damage and abnormal vibration.  
…In an Area with High Winds  
In Case of Improper Installation  
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a  
metal frame. Provide a suitable air baffle.  
The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improp-  
er installation or maintenance service, including failure to  
follow the instructions in this document.  
…In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)  
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher  
than drifting snow. Provide snow vents.

NOTE  
It is recommended to use baffle plates for models  
CU-KS12NK1A and CU-KS18NKUA. The baffle plates  
are not normally required for the other models.  
Front  
When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed  
to strong wind (such as seasonal winds with low air tem-  
perature in winter), baffle plates must be installed on the  
outdoor unit. (Fig. 5c)  
Back  
Wind  
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit  
runs at low speed when the air conditioner is operated at  
low outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit is  
exposed to strong wind, the system pressure drops  
because of the freeze protector.  
No air intake baffle  
required on  
Air discharge baffle  
Install a pair of windbaffle plates at the front and back of  
the outdoor unit if it will be subject to strong wind during  
the winter. (Figs. 5c to 5k)

3-1. Preparation for Suspending  
This unit uses a drain pump. Use a carpenter’s level to  
check that the unit is level.  
3-2. Suspending the Indoor Unit  
Suspension bolt (M10 or 3/8")  
(locally purchased)  
(1) Fix the suspension bolts securely in the ceiling using  
the method shown in the diagrams, by attaching  
them to the ceiling support structure, or by any other  
method that ensures that the unit will be securely  
and safely suspended. (Fig. 6-1)

Do not use adhesive when connecting the supplied drain  
hose to the drain port (either on the main unit or the PVC  
pipe).  
Attach so that the hose band  
fastener is on the side of the  
drain port.  
Attach the hose bands so that  
each is approximately 3/16"  
(5 mm) to 15/16" (25 mm) from  
the end of the supplied drain  
hose.  
CAUTION  
Reasons: a) It may cause water to leak from the connec-  
tion. Since the connection is slippery just  
after the adhesive has been applied, the  
pipe easily slips off.  
b) The pipe cannot be removed when mainte-  
nance is needed.  
(4) Wrap the hose with the supplied drain hose insulation  
and use the 4 twist ties so that the hose is insulated with  
no gaps.  
Air bleeder prohibited  
Do not bend the supplied drain hose 90° or more. The  
hose may slip off.  
NOTE  
Fig. 6-6  
Make sure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100 or  
more) and that there are no water traps.  
Do not install an air bleeder as  
this may cause water to spray  
from the drain pipe outlet.  
(Fig. 6-6)  
CAUTION  
CAUTION  
In cases where it is necessary to raise the height of the  
drain piping, the drain piping can be raised to a maximum  
height of 2.78 ft. (850 mm) above the bottom surface of  
the ceiling. Under no conditions attempt to raise it higher  
than 2.78 ft. (850 mm) above the bottom surface of the  
ceiling. Doing so will result in water leakage. (Fig. 6-7)  
Do not use natural drainage.

3-7. Wiring Instructions  
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 circuit breaker for overcurrent protection provided in the exclu-  
sive line.  
(3) To prevent possible hazards due to insulation failure, 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 manu-  
facturer will accept no responsibility for any damage or misoperation that occurs  
as a result of such unauthorized changes.  
3-8. Recommended Wire Length and Diameter  
Regulations on wiring diameter differ from locality to locality. For field wiring require-  
ments, please refer to your local electrical codes. Carefully observe these regula-  
tions when carrying out the installation.  
Table 4 lists recommended wire lengths and diameters for power supply systems.  
NOTE  
Refer to the wiring system diagram (Fig. 7a or Fig. 7b) for the meaning of (A), (B)  
and (C) in Table 4.

5-1. Use of the Flaring Method  
Many of the conventional split system air conditioners  
employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes  
which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this  
method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and  
connected with flare nuts.  
5-2. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool  
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a  
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 12" to  
20" (30 to 50 cm) longer than the tubing length you  
estimate.  
Fig. 15  
Copper

IMPORTANT  
To prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of con-  
densation, both tubes must be well insulated with a  
proper insulation material.  
The thickness of the insulation should be a minimum 5/16"  
(8 mm). (Fig. 22)

5-6. Taping the Tubes  
(1) At this time, the 2 refrigerant tubes (and electrical wire  
if local codes permit) should be taped together with  
armoring tape. The drain hose may also be included  
and taped together as 1 bundle with the tubing.  
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor  
unit to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall. As  
you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape  
turn. (Fig. 25)  
Clamp

(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to wall, using 1 clamp approx.  
every 47" (120 cm).  
Apply putty here  
NOTE  
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly, since this will  
decrease the heat insulation effect. Also, be sure the con-  
densation drain hose splits away from the bundle and drips  
clear of the unit and the tubing.

water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant system  
Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump (for Test Run)  
(1) Check that each tube (both narrow and wide tubes)  
between the indoor and outdoor units have been proper-  
ly connected and all wiring for the test run has been  
completed. Note that both narrow and wide tube service  
valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this stage.  
Manifold valve  
(Exclusively for R410A)  
(2) Using an adjustable wrench or box wrench, remove the  
valve caps from the service valve on both narrow and  
wide tubes.  
(3) Connect a vacuum pump and a manifold valve (with  
pressure gauges) to the service port on the wide tube  
service valve. (Fig. 27)

The service port on the wide tube service valve  
uses a Schrader core valve to access the  
refrigerant system. The valve core is similar to  
those used in automobile tires. Therefore, be  
sure to use a vacuum hose connector which  
has a push-pin inside.  
CAUTION

valve (field supply) for this purpose. The  
“Hi” knob of the manifold valve must  
always be kept closed.

(4) With the “Lo” knob of the manifold valve open, run  
the vacuum pump. The operation time for the vacu-  
um pump varies with tubing length and the capacity  
of the pump. The following table shows the amount  
of time for evacuation:  
NOTE  
To prevent other refrigerants from being mistakenly  
charged to units which use R410A, the size of the  
charge port on the service valve is different from the  
one for other refrigerant types. For servicing such as  
recharging, the specified charging hose, manifold and  
vacuum pump adapter (with reverse flow prevention)  
for R410A must be used.

NOTE  
(5) With the vacuum pump still running, close the “Lo”  
knob of the manifold valve. Then stop the vacuum  
pump.  
The required time in Table 6 is calculated based on the  
assumption that the ideal (or target) vacuum condition  
is around 0.193 psi (10 mmHg abs.).  
(6) With the hex wrench, turn the valve stem on the  
narrow tube service valve counter-clockwise by  
90 degrees (1/4 turn) for 10 seconds, and then turn  
the stem clockwise to close it again. (Fig. 28)

wrench before attempting to turn the valve.  
(7) Leak test all joints at the tubing (both indoor and outdoors) with  
soapy water. Bubbles indicate a leak. Tighten the joint more  
when leaks, then check if there is no leak. Be sure to wipe off the  
soap with a clean cloth.

(8) With the hex wrench, turn the wide tube service valve stem  
counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.  
(9) Turn the narrow tube service valve stem counter-clockwise to  
fully open the valve.  
(10) Loosen the vacuum hose connected to the wide tube service  
port slightly to release the pressure. Then, remove the hose.  
This may cause the refrigerant gas to  
leak. In order to avoid this, take off the  
hose quickly.  
CAUTION  
(11) Fasten the valve cap on the wide tube service port securely  
with an adjustable wrench or box wrench. Next, mount the  
valve cap on the service valve and tighten it to 170 lbs·in  
(200 kgf·cm) with a torque wrench. This process is very  
important to prevent gas from leaking from the system.  
(12) Test run the air conditioner. (See next page.)  
(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid soap to  
check for any gas leaks around the service valves or caps.  
(14) If there is no leakage, stop the air conditioner.  
(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.  
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and the air condi-  
tioner is ready for actual operation.

HR. TIMER button is pressed while the TIMER OFF function  
operates, the OFF Timer is cancelled and the unit will stop  
operating one hour later.  
NOTE  
• The flap automatically closes when the unit is off.  
• During the heating operation, the fan speed will be very low and the  
flap will be in the horizontal position (position ) until the air being  
blown out of the unit begins to warm. Once the air warms up, the  
flap position and fan speed change to the settings specified with  
the remote controller.  
CAUTION  
2. Operation together with the daily ON/OFF  
repeat timer  
• Use the FLAP button on the remote controller to adjust the  
position of the flap. If you move the flap by hand, the flap  
position according to the remote controller and the actual  
flap position may no longer match. If this should happen,  
shut off the unit, wait for the flap to close, and then turn on  
the unit again; the flap position will now be normal again.  
• Do not have the flap pointed down during cooling operation.  
Condensation may begin to form around the air vent and drip  
down.  
The 1-Hour OFF Timer setting is given priority over the DAILY ON/  
OFF REPEAT setting.
