Safety Precautions

Read all safety instructions before installation and operation.

  1. Electrical Safety: Ensure power is disconnected during installation. Use dedicated circuit.
  2. Refrigerant Handling: Only qualified technicians should handle R410A refrigerant.
  3. Installation Location: Select stable, well-ventilated location for outdoor unit.
  4. Weight Considerations: Unit is heavy; use proper lifting techniques and equipment.

WARNING! R410A operates at higher pressures than R22. Use only R410A compatible tools and equipment. Do not mix refrigerants.

Installation Requirements

Verify all components and tools before beginning installation.

  1. Tools Required: Torque wrench, flaring tool, vacuum pump, manifold gauge set, level.
  2. Clearance Requirements: Minimum 30cm clearance around outdoor unit for airflow.
  3. Mounting Surface: Solid wall capable of supporting unit weight.
  4. Electrical Requirements: Dedicated circuit with proper voltage and amperage.

CAUTION! Ensure installation site meets all local building codes and regulations.

Installation Procedures

Follow step-by-step installation sequence for proper operation.

  1. Indoor Unit Mounting: Use mounting plate and ensure level installation.
  2. Outdoor Unit Placement: Install on stable surface with proper vibration isolation.
  3. Pipe Routing: Plan shortest possible route with minimal bends.
  4. Wall Penetration: Use wall sleeve and seal properly to prevent air/water leakage.
  5. Drain Installation: Ensure proper slope (1/100 minimum) for condensate drainage.

Important: All piping connections must be leak-tested before operation.

Electrical Connections

Proper electrical connection is critical for safe operation.

  1. Power Supply: Connect to dedicated circuit with proper circuit breaker.
  2. Wiring: Use copper wires only; follow wiring diagram precisely.
  3. Grounding: Ensure proper grounding according to local electrical codes.
  4. Communication Cable: Connect between indoor and outdoor units as specified.

WARNING! All electrical work must be performed by qualified electrician. Incorrect wiring can cause fire or equipment damage.

Refrigerant Piping

R410A piping requires special procedures due to higher operating pressures.

  1. Pipe Preparation: Cut pipes squarely and remove burrs.
  2. Flaring: Use R410A specific flaring tool; ensure perfect 45-degree flare.
  3. Connection: Apply refrigerant oil to flare seats before tightening.
  4. Torque: Tighten connections to specified torque values.
  5. Leak Test: Pressurize with dry nitrogen and check all connections.
  6. Evacuation: Evacuate system to 500 microns or less.
  7. Charging: Add specified amount of R410A refrigerant.

Critical: Never use R22 tools or procedures with R410A systems.

System Setup and Testing

Complete system commissioning before customer handover.

  1. Power On: Apply power and check for error codes.
  2. Test Operation: Run system in cooling and heating modes.
  3. Temperature Check: Verify temperature differential across coils.
  4. Airflow: Check airflow from all vents.
  5. Drainage: Verify proper condensate drainage.
  6. Remote Control: Test all remote functions.
  7. Customer Instruction: Demonstrate basic operation to end user.

Note: Record all test results and refrigerant charge for service records.

Operation Instructions

Basic operation procedures for end users.

  1. Power: Use remote or unit buttons to turn system on/off.
  2. Mode Selection: Select Cooling, Heating, Dry, or Fan mode.
  3. Temperature Setting: Set desired temperature using up/down buttons.
  4. Fan Speed: Adjust fan speed as needed for comfort.
  5. Louvre Control: Adjust vertical and horizontal air direction.
  6. Timer: Set on/off timer for automatic operation.
  7. Filter Reset: Reset filter indicator after cleaning.

Tip: Maintain temperature setting for energy efficiency.

Maintenance and Care

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity.

  1. Filter Cleaning: Clean air filter every 2-4 weeks during operation.
  2. Outdoor Unit: Keep outdoor coil clean and free from debris.
  3. Drain Line: Check drain line for clogs periodically.
  4. Professional Service: Schedule annual maintenance by qualified technician.
  5. Winter Care: Protect outdoor unit from ice and snow accumulation.

CAUTION! Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance.
