( Fig. 1 : Limit of Maximum Frequency based on Outdoor Temperature )
1. COOLING OPERATION
1-1 COOLING CAPACITY CONTROL
A sensor (room temperature thermistor) built in the indoor unit body will usually perceive
difference or variation between a set temperature and present room temperature, and
controls the operation frequency of the compressor.
* If the room temperature is 4°F(2°C) higher than a set temperature, the compressor operation
frequency will attain to maximum performance.
* If the room temperature is 5°F(2.5°C) lower than a set temperature, the compressor will be
stopped.
* When the room temperature is between +4°F(+2°C) to -5°F(-2.5°C) of the setting temperature,
the compressor frequency is controlled within the range shown in Table1.
However, the maximum frequency is limited in the range shown in Figure 1 based on the
fan speed mode and the outdoor temperature.

10. ELECTRONIC EXPANSION VALVE CONTROL
The most proper opening of the electronic expansion valve is calculated and controlled under the
present operating condition based on the following values.
The compressor frequency, the temperatures detected by the discharge temperature sensor, the
indoor heat exchanger sensor, the outdoor heat exchanger sensor, and the outdoor temperature
sensor.
The pulse range of the electronic expansion valve control is between 60 to 480 pulses.
The expansion valve is set at 480 pulses after 110 seconds of stopping compressor.
At the time of supplying the power to the outdoor unit, the initialization of the electronic
expansion valve is operated (528 pulses are input to the closing direction).
11. TEST OPERATION CONTROL
Under the condition where the air conditioner runs, press the test operation button of the remote
control, and the test operation control mode will appear. During test running, the operation lamp
and timer lamp of the air conditioner body twinkle simultaneously. Set the test operation mode,
and the compressor will continue to run regardless of whether the room temperature sensor detects.
The compressor won't enter operation status for 2 minutes and 20 seconds after the compressor is
stopped, even if any operation is given.
At the time when the air conditioner is switched from the cooling mode to heating mode, the
compressor is stopped, and the four-way valve is switched in 2 minutes and 20 seconds later after
the compressor stopped.
When the power was interrupted by a power failure, etc. during operation, the operation contents
at that time are memorized and when power is recovered, operation is automatically started with
the memorized operation contents.
When the power is interrupted and recovered during timer operation, since the timer operation time
is shifted by the time the power was interrupted, an alarm is given by blinking (7 sec ON/2 sec OFF)
the indoor unit body timer lamp.

It is always compulsory to change the liquid, because
R410A is a mixed refrigerant and there is some fear that a
mixing ratio changes. In order to avoid the refrigerant from
returning to the compressor in a liquid state, the refrigerant
can be charged instead of giving a load to the compressor
with a safety charger.
Control valve . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (Fig.4-14)
The control valve prevents the refrigerant from spouting
when it is removed, as the charging hose side and the ser-

OIL
• Use new synthetic oils such as ester because HFC series refrigerant has less solubility with mineral oils
conventionally used for R22.
• As these new synthetic oils are easily influenced by moisture and dusts, they must be treated more care-
fully than the conventional lubricating oils.
CAUTION
For installation/servicing, take more precautions than the case of conventional refrigerants to avoid moisture
and dusts entering the refrigerant circuit. Also, for storing parts, more precautions must be taken.
2, 3-WAY VALVE
• Review material O-ring, valve core seal for securing suitability with oil.
CAUTION
Check if the valve is suitable for the refrigerant (model) when replacing.
CAUTION
Check if the compressor is suitable for the refrigerant (model) when replacing. Complete welding within 15
minutes after opening the cap when replacing.
COMPRESSOR
• Use better grade of material for sliding parts for securing good lubrication of sliding part as HFC
refrigerant does not contain chloride.
• Review insulating materials
• Increase pressure resistance strength
CAUTION
During storage, due care must be taken so that foreign matters such as dust and water do not enter.
HEAT EXCHANGER
• Review the water,contaminants controlling level
• Use thinner tube to increase pressure Increase capacity for resistance strength (only outdoor unit)
improving performance
CAUTION
Check if the valve is suitable for the refrigerant (model) when replacing.

(*) Trouble Shooting Method
(1) Checking method of the compressor failure
Insert the AC plug and start up the cooling operation. Input Test operation signal and check if the
compressor operates.
If it does not operate, measure the resistance value of compressor windings between U-V, V-W,
W-U.
If any of the resistance value between U-V, V-W, W-U is not same as others, the compressor is
defective.

s it also changes by the
compressor temperature, the measured value may be much different from the above table when
measured right after stopping operation.)
(2) Checking method of EEV failure
- Insert the AC plug and start up the operation. Check if the EEV operates just before compressor is turned
on. (Touch EEV by hand and check it.)
If it does not operate, check if the coil or connector of EEV is removed or loose.
If it operates, check the discharge thermistor / outdoor heat exchanger thermistor / indoor heat
exchanger thermistor. (Refer to (3) for checking method.)
(3) Checking method of Thermistor
- Check each thermistor if it is removed or the connector is loose.
If there is no problem, remove the connector of the thermistor from the PCB and check the resistance
value (refer to the thermitor characteristics table).

When multiple number of indoor units are installed in the same room, erroneous receipt of the signal can
be avoided by setting up the remote control custom code separately.
To set up the remote control custom code, always set up the same code on both indoor unit PCB and
remote control PCB.
(When the indoor unit PCB is changed to Code B, it can not receive the signal unless remote control PCB
is also changed to Code B.)

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
When Wiring
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED
ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYSTEM.
•Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed
or reconnected and checked.
•Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully
refer to the wiring diagram and these instructions when wiring. Improper
connections and inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury
or death.
•Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
•Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at con-
nection points and a possible fire hazard.
5 cm or over
The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant (R22) models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
(1) Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant(R22) mod-
els, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special.(See the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant(R22) model with a new refrigerant R410A
model, always replace the conventional piping and flare nuts with the R410A piping and flare nuts.
(2) Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to prevent
erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant(R22) and for safety. Therefore, check
beforehand.[The charging port thread diameter for R410A is 1/2 threads per inch.]
(3) Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with
refrigerant(R22) models. Also, when storing the piping ,securely seal the opening by pinching,
taping, etc.
(4) When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of the gas
and liquid phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side whose composition is stable.
This air conditioner uses new refrigerant HFC (R410A).
(1) Cut a 3-2/16’’(80 mm) diameter hole in the wall at the position shown
in (Fig.1).
(2) When cutting the wall hole at the inside of the wall hook bracket,
cut the hole within the range of the left and right center marks
3/8’’(10 mm) below the installation frame.
When cutting the wall hole at the outside of the wall hook bracket,
cut the hole at least 3/8’’(10 mm) below less.
(3) Cut the hole so that the outside end is lower 3/16’’ to 3 /8’’ (5 to 10 mm)
than the inside end.
(4) Always align the center of the wall hole. If misaligned, water leak-
age will occur.
(5) Cut the wall pipe to match the wall thickness, stick it into the wall

BENDING PIPES
The pipes are shaped by your hands. Be careful not to collapse them.
Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
When pipes are repeatedly bent or stretched, the material will harden,
making it difficult to bend or stretch them any more. Do not bend or stretch
the pipes more than three times.
OK NO
Extend the pipe
by unwinding it.

When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units.
Get a partner to help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain
on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner
can cut your fingers.
When Installing...
...In a Ceiling or Wall
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.
...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.
...In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a solid, level
foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnor-
mal vibration.
...In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame.
Provide a suitable air baffle.
...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.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
•Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
•Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
•Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the flare and
union tubes before connecting them, then tighten the nut with a torque
wrench for a leak-free connection.
•Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
NOTE:
Depending on the system type, liquid and gas lines may be either nar-
row or wide. Therefore, to avoid confusion the refrigerant tubing for your
particular model is specified as either “small” or “large” rather than as
“liquid” or “gas”.
When Servicing
•Turn the power OFF at the main circuit breaker panel before opening
the unit to check or repair electrical parts and wiring.
•Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.
•Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check that no metal
scraps or bits of wiring have been left inside the unit being serviced.
•After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the
operating manual.

CAUTION
(1) In order to align the drain hose and drain cap, be
sure to insert securely and vertically. Incline in-
sertion will cause water leakage.
(2) When inserting, be sure not to attach any mate-
rial besides water. If any other material is attached,
it will cause deterioration and water leakage.
(3) After removing drain hose, be sure not to forget
mounting drain cap.
(4) Be sure to fix the drain hose with tape to the bot-
tom of piping.
(5) Prevent drain water frozen under low tempera-
ture environment.
When installing indoor unit's drain hose outdoors,
necessary measure for frost protection should be
taken to prevent drain water frozen.
● Under low temperature environment (when out-
door temperature under 32 °F), after cooling op-
eration is executed, water in the drain hose could
be frozen.
Once drain water is frozen, the drain hose will
be blocked and water leakage may be resulted
for indoor unit.
CAUTION
(1) Fasten a flare nut with a torque wrench as instructed in this manual. If
fastened too tight, the flare nut may be broken after a long period of time
and cause a leakage of refrigerant.
(2) During installation, make sure that the refrigerant pipe is attached firmly
before you run the compressor. Do not operate the compressor under the
condition of refrigerant piping not attached properly with 2-way or 3-way
valve open. This may cause abnormal pressure in the refrigeration cycle
that leads to breakage and even injury.
WARNING
(1) Install the unit where it will not be tilted by more
than 5°.
(2) When installing the outdoor unit where it may ex-
posed to strong wind, fasten it securely.

Special tools for R410A
Contents of change
Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional gauge. To prevent erroneous
mixing of other refrigerants, the diameter of each port has been changed.
It is recommended the gauge with seals-0.1 to 5.3 MPa (-1 to 53 bar) for high pressure.
-0.1 to 3.8 MPa (-1 to 38 bar) for low pressure.
To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base size were changed.
A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a vacuum pump adapter.

Copper pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desirable
that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m. Do not
use copper pipes having a collapsed, deformed or discolored
portion (especially on the interior surface). Otherwise, the ex-
pansion value or capillary tube may become blocked with con-
taminants.
As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than
when using R22, it is necessary to choose adequate materials.
Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in Table1.Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8mm even
when it is available on the market.

(1) Do not use the existing (for R22) piping and flare nuts.
• If the existing materials are used, the pressure inside the refrigerant cycle will rise and cause breakage, injury,
etc.(Use the special R410A materials.)
(2) When installing and relocating the air conditioner, do not mix gases other than the specified refrigerant(R410A)
to enter the refrigerant cycle.
• If air or other gas enters the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to an abnormally high value
and cause breakage, injury, etc.
WARNING
CAUTION
When installing pipes shorter than 3m, sound of the outdoor unit will be transferred to the indoor unit, which will
cause large operating sound or some abnormal sound.
