IMPORTANT!
Please Read Before Starting
This air conditioning system meets strict safety and oper-
ating 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.
For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you
must:
Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.
Follow each installation or repair step exactly as
shown.
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 haz-
ard or unsafe practice which
can result in severe personal
injury or death.
This symbol refers to a hazard
or unsafe practice which can
result in personal injury or
product or property damage.
If Necessary, Get Help
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.
In Case of Improper Installation
The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for
improper installation or maintenance service, including
failure to follow the instructions in this document.
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 tub-
ing 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 connection points and a possible fire
hazard.
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 pre-
vents water damage and abnormal 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
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.
When Servicing
Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains)
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.
Others
Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing
the refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on
contact with fire or heat, can produce dangerously
toxic gas.
Confirm upon completing installation that no refriger-
ant gas is leaking. If escaped gas comes in contact
with a stove, gas water heater, electric room heater or
other heat source, it can produce dangerously toxic
gas.

Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing
Because capillary tubing is used in the outdoor unit, both the
wide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner become cold. To
prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of
condensation, both tubes must be well insulated with a
proper insulation material. The thickness of the insulation
should be a min. 8 mm.
After a tube has been insulated,
never try to bend it into a narrow
curve because it can cause the tube
to break or crack.

WIRING SYSTEM DIAGRAM
WARNING
Be sure to comply with local
codes on running the wire
from the indoor unit to the
outdoor unit (size of wire
and wiring method, etc.).
Each wire must be firmly
connected.
No wire should be allowed
to touch refrigerant tubing,
the compressor, or any
moving part.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, each air
conditioner unit must be grounded.
For the installation of a grounding device,
please observe local electrical codes.
Grounding is necessary, especially for units
using inverter circuits, in order to release
charged electricity and electrical noise caused
by high tension. Otherwise, electrical shock
may occur.
Place a dedicated ground more than 2 meters
away from other grounds and do not have it
shared with other electric appliances.

operation button of the remote controller. (Fig. 8a)
This starts the fan producing uncooled forced air with
the 3 indicator lamps (OPERATION lamp, TIMER lamp
and QUIET lamp) on the main unit blinking. (Fig. 8c)
After 3 minutes, the system shifts into cooling opera-
tion, and cool air will start to be felt. Cool mode test
run is unaffected by the room temperature.
(3) Press the ON/OFF operation button of the remote con-
troller again to stop the test run. (Fig. 8a)
(4) Finally press the ACL (reset) button of the remote con-
troller to release it from Test Run mode to return to nor-
mal mode. (Fig. 8a)
” and “oP-1” will disappear from the remote con-
troller display area.
After the test run is completed, be sure to press the ACL
(reset) button to return to normal mode. The air conditioner
will not operate correctly if this is not done.

8. MAINTENANCE
8-1. Address Setting of the Remote
Control Unit
The address can be set in order to prevent interfer-
ence between remote controllers when two Sanyo
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.
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. 13). When the tab is removed, the address is
automatically set to B (Fig. 14).
(3) Press and hold the remote controller QUIET but-
ton and 1 HR TIMER button. At the same time,
press the ACL (reset) button. Use a thin object
such as the tip of a pen to press the ACL button.
When this has been done, “oP-1” (test run)
appears, blinking, in the remote controller clock
display area.
(4) Each time the 1 HR TIMER button is pressed, the
display changes as shown below. Press this but-
ton 2 times to change the display to “oP-7”
(address setting). (Fig. 15)
(5) “oP-7” has now been selected for address setting.
(6) Press the ON/OFF operation button on the remote
controller. (Fig. 15) 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.
(7) Finally press the remote controller ACL (reset)
button to cancel the blinking “oP-7” display.
(Fig. 15)
Changing of the second remote controller address is
now completed.

10. TROUBLESHOOTING
Precautions before performing inspection or repair
NOTE
Executing self-diagnostics
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 310 V) 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.
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.

<Trouble Diagnosis of Outdoor Fan Motor>.....Applied for only SAP-CRV123 outdoor unit
This outdoor DC fan motor contains an internal control PCB. Therefore, it is not possible to measure the coil
resistance, and the following procedure should be used to check the motor.
To perform diagnosis, follow the instructions in “Checking the Outdoor Unit” on the previous page and set the
outdoor unit to Test Run mode (compressor ON, outdoor fan motor ON).
Important: (A) Turn OFF the power before connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors.
(B) When performing voltage measurement at the outdoor controller connector for (3) in the table
below, the DC motor will trip and voltage output will stop approximately 10 seconds after
operation is started. For this reason, to measure the voltage again, first turn OFF the outdoor
unit power, then follow the instructions in “Checking the Outdoor Unit” and again set the unit
to Test Run mode.
[Trouble symptom 1] The fan does not stop when the outdoor unit stops. Outdoor unit controller trouble
[Trouble symptom 2] The fan motor does not rotate when the outdoor unit is operating.
(Diagnostic procedure)
* Disconnect the motor connectors and measure the voltage at the DC motor connectors on the outdoor
unit controller (3 locations).
Measurement location Normal value
(1) Vs-Gnd: Between pin 1 and pin 4 DC 230 V or more
(2) Vcc-Gnd: Between pin 5 and pin 4 DC 14 V or more
(3) Vsp-Gnd: Between pin 7 and pin 4 After fluctuating 4 times between DC 1.0 – 4.3 V
(1 sec. ON) and DC 0 V (1 sec. OFF), the DC
motor trips.
(Diagnostic results)
All of the above measured values are normal. Fan motor trouble (Replace the motor.)
Any one of the above measured values is not normal. Outdoor unit controller trouble
(Replace the controller .)
(Reference) DC motor connector pin arrangement
Pin 1: Vs (white)
Pin 2: Not used
Pin 3: Not used
Pin 4: Gnd (black)
Pin 5: Vcc (red)
Pin 6: FG (blue)
Pin 7: Vsp (yellow)
[Trouble symptom 3] Motor rotates for some time (several seconds), but then quickly stops, when the outdoor
unit operates.
(There is trouble in the system that provides feedback of motor rotation speed from the
motor to the outdoor unit controller.)
[Trouble symptom 4] Fan motor rotation speed does not change during outdoor unit operation.
[Trouble symptom 5] Fan motor rotation speed varies excessively during outdoor unit operation.
(Remedy for symptom 3 to 5)
It is not possible to identify whether the trouble is outdoor unit controller trouble or motor trouble.
Therefore, first replace the outdoor unit controller, then (if necessary) replace the DC motor.

<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.
Locations most susceptible to noise
1. Locations near broadcast stations where
there are strong electromagnetic waves
2. Locations near amateur radio (short wave)
stations
3. Locations near electronic sewing machines
and arc-welding machines
Correction
(The fundamental concept is to make the
system less susceptible to noise.)
— Insulate for noise or
distance from the noise source. —
1. Use shielded wires.
2. Move unit away from the noise source.
Trouble
Either of the following trouble may occur.
1. The unit may stop suddenly during
operation.
2. Indicator lamps may flicker.
Electromagnetic interference
This refers to noise generated by high-speed switching of the microcomputer and compressor. This noise radiates through
space and returns to the electric wiring, affecting any wireless devices (televisions, radios, etc.) located nearby.
Locations most susceptible to noise
1. A television or radio is located near the
A/C and A/C wiring.
2. The antenna cable for a television or
radio is located close to the A/C and A/C
wiring.
3. Locations where television and radio
signals are weak.
Correction
1. Select a separate power source.
2. Keep the A/C and A/C wiring at least 1 meter
away from wireless devices and antenna cables.
3. Change the wireless device’s antenna to a high-
sensitivity antenna.
4. Change the antenna cable to a BS coaxial cable.
5. Use a noise filter (for the wireless device).
6. Use a signal booster.
Trouble
1. Noise appears in the television picture,
or the picture is distorted.
2. Static occurs in the radio sound.

11-1. Measurement of Insulation
Resistance
The insulation is in good condition if the resistance
exceeds 1M.
11-1-1. Power supply cord
Clamp the grounding wire of power cord with the lead
clip of the insulation resistance tester and measure
the resistance by placing a probe on either of the two
power wires. (Fig. 1)
Then also measure the resistance between the
grounding and other power terminals. (Fig. 1)
11-1-2. Indoor unit
Clamp an aluminum plate fin or copper tube with the
lead clip of the insulation resistance tester and mea-
sure the resistance by placing a probe on each termi-
nal screw where power supply lines are connected on
the terminal plate. (Fig. 2)
11-1-3. Outdoor unit
Clamp an aluminum plate fin or copper tube with the
lead clip of the insulation resistance tester and mea-
sure the resistance by placing a probe on each termi-
nal screw on the terminal plate. (Fig. 2)
Note that the ground line terminal should be skipped
for the check.
11-1-4. Measurement of insulation
resistance for electrical parts
Disconnect the lead wires of the desired electric part
from terminal plate, capacitor, etc. Similarly discon-
nect the connector. Then measure the insulation
resistance. (Figs. 3 and 4)
Refer to Electric Wiring Diagram.
If the probe cannot enter the poles because the hole
is too narrow then use a probe with a thinner pin.

12. REFRIGERANT R410A:
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING UNIT
12-1. Characteristics of New Refrigerant R410A
12-1-1. 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.
12-1-2. Components (mixing proportions)
HFC32 (50%) / HFC125 (50%)
12-1-3. 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.
12-2. 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.
Size of flare
CAUTION
Ether-type oil is used for compressor oil for R410A-type units, which is different
from the mineral oil used for R22. Thus more attention to moisture prevention and
faster replacement work compared with conventional models are required.

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 0.7mm-thick copper tubing or tubing which is less than 0.8mm 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, imme-
diately provide thorough ventilation.
47
12-3. Tools Specifically for R410A
For servicing, use the following tools for R410A
To prevent other refrigerants (R22, R407C) from being mistakenly charged to this unit, sizes of the service
ports and flare nuts of the narrow tube service valve and wide tube service valve have been altered.
12-4. 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
For details on tubing installation procedures, refer to the installation manuals attached to the
indoor unit and outdoor unit.

12-5. In Case of Compressor Malfunction
12-5-1. 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.
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant, since it will
contain impurities.
(2) Replacing Compressor
Soon after removing seals of both discharge and suc-
tion 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.
(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 pre-
vent the pump oil from flowing back.
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 25L/min. and ultimate vacuum pressure
rate of 0.05Torr:
Standard time for evacuation
CAUTION
Should the compressor malfunction, be sure to make the switch to a replacement
compressor as quickly as possible.
Use only the tools indicated exclusively for R410A. See “12-3. Tools
Specifically for R410A.”

(5) Recharge
Length of tubing Less than 10 meters More than 10 meters
Time More than 10 minutes More than 15 minutes

(5) Recharging
Be sure to charge the specified amount of
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.
When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use
an electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In
this case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylin-
der 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%.
Also, charge the minimum necessary amount to
the charging cylinder before using it to charge
the air conditioning unit.
Example:
In case of charging refrigerant to a unit requiring
0.76Kg using a capacity of a 10Kg cylinder, the
minimum necessary amount for the cylinder is:
0.76 + 10 ×0.20 = 2.76Kg
For the remaining refrigerant, refer to the
instructions of the refrigerant manufacturer.
If using a charging cylinder, transfer the speci-
fied amount of liquid refrigerant from the refriger-
ant cylinder to the charging cylinder.
Prepare an evacuated charging cylinder before-
hand.
Do not use the refrigerant if the amount in
the charging cylinder is less than 20%.
CAUTION
Never charge a large amount
of liquid refrigerant at once to
the unit. This may cause dam-
age to the compressor.
CAUTION
To prevent the composition
of R410A from changing,
never bleed the refrigerant
gas into the atmosphere
while transferring the refrig-
erant. (Fig. 3)

12-6. In Case Refrigerant is Leaking
(1) Detecting Leaks
Use the detector for R410A to locate refrigerant leak
points.
(2) Recovering refrigerant
Never release the gas to the atmosphere; recover
residual refrigerant using the refrigerant recovery unit
for R410A, instead.
Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant because its
composition will have been altered.
(3) Welding leaking points
Confirm again that no residual refrigerant exists in the
unit before starting welding.
Weld securely using flux and wax for R410A.
Prevent oxide film from forming inside the tubes utiliz-
ing substitution with nitrogen (N2) in the refrigerant
circuit of the unit. Leave ends of tubes open during
welding.
(4) 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.
(5) 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.
The equipment may be damaged if moisture remains
in the tubing, thus carry out the evacuation thoroughly.

(6) Recharging
Recharge unit in the same manner explained on the
previous page “(5) Recharging.”
CAUTION
Never attempt to charge additional refrigerant when refrigerant has been leaking
from the unit. Follow the procedure described below to locate points of leaks and
carry out repairs, then recharge the refrigerant.

12-7. Charging Additional Refrigerant
12-7-1. When Tubes are Extended
Observe the proper amount of refrigerant as stated in this service manual or the installation manual that came
with the indoor unit.
Charge additional refrigerant in liquid state only.
12-8. Retro-Fitting Existing Systems
12-8-1. Use of Existing Units
Never use new refrigerant R410A for existing units which use R22.
This will cause the air conditioner to
operate improperly and may result in a hazardous condition.
12-8-2. Use of Existing Tubing
If replacing an older unit that used refrigerant R22 with a R410A unit,
do not use its existing tubing.
Instead,
completely new tubing must be used.
CAUTION
Never charge additional refrigerant if refrigerant is leaking from the unit. Follow
instructions given in “12-6. In Case Refrigerant is Leaking” and completely carry
out repairs. Only then should you recharge the refrigerant.

Special Remarks
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 is automatically runs at lower speed
for providing a comfortable breeze.
‘DRY’’ operation is not possible if the indoor temperature is 15 °C or less.
Heating performance Because this air conditioner heats a room by drawing in the heat of the
outside air (heat pump system), the heating efficiency will fall off when the
outdoor temperature is very low. If sufficient heat cannot be obtained with
this air conditioner, use another heating appliance together with it.
Defrosting When the outdoor temperature is low, frost or ice may form on the heat
exchanger coil, reducing heating performance. When this happens, a
microcomputer defrosting system operates. At the same time, the fan on
the indoor unit stops and the OPERATION lamp lights up red and orange
alternately until defrosting is completed. Heating operation restarts after
several minutes. (This interval will vary slightly depending upon the
outdoor temperature and the way in which frost forms.)
Cold draft prevention For several minutes after the start of heating operation, the indoor fan runs
at lower speed until the indoor heat exchanger coil has warmed up
sufficiently. However, the fan may remain stopped when the room
temperature is low. This is because the COLD DRAFT PREVENTION
SYSTEM is operating.
In the event of power failure, the unit will stop. When the power is
resumed, the unit will restart automatically within five minutes by the
remote control unit.
Clicking sound is heard from
the air conditioner
In heating or cooling operation, any plastic parts may expand or shrink due
to a sudden temperature change. In this event, a clicking sound may occur.
This is normal, and the sound will soon disappear.
The remote control unit sends the setting condition to the air conditioner
regularly at five minute intervals.

control unit has been turned on. Use the FLAP button to set either the sweep
function or one of the six airflow direction settings.
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 control.
Use the FLAP button on the remote control to adjust the position of
the flap. If you move the flap by hand, the flap position according to
the remote control 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.
