CAUTION
(Couldleadtoseriousinjuryinparticularenvironmentswhenoperatedincorrectly.)
n Do not install the unit by yourself (user).
Incompleteinstallationcouldcausereorelectricshock,injuryduetotheunit
falling,orleakageofwater.Consultthedealerfromwhomyoupurchased
theunitoraqualiedinstaller.
n Perform the installation securely referring to the installation manual.
Incompleteinstallationcouldcause re,electricshock, injuryduetothe
unitfalling,orleakageofwater.
n When installing the unit, use appropriate protective equipment and
tools for safety.
Failuretodosocouldcauseinjury.
n Install the unit securely in a place which can bear the weight of the
unit.
Iftheinstallationlocationcannotbeartheweightoftheunit,theunitcould
fallcausinginjury.
n Electrical work should be performed by a qualied, experienced electri-
cian, according to the installation manual. Be sure to use an exclusive
circuit. Do not connect other electrical appliances to the circuit.
If the capacity of the power circuit is insufcient or there is incomplete
electricalwork,itcouldresultinareoranelectricshock.
n Do not damage the wires by applying excessive pressure with parts
or screws.
Damagedwirescouldcausereorelectricshock.
n Be sure to cut off the main power in case of setting up the indoor P.C.
board or wiring works.
Failuretodosocouldcauseelectricshock.
n Use the specied wires to connect the indoor and outdoor units
securely and attach the wires rmly to the terminal block connecting
sections so the stress of the wires is not applied to the sections. Do
not extend the wires, or use intermediate connection.
Incompleteconnectingandsecuringcouldcausere.
n Do not install the unit in a place where inammable gas may leak.
Ifgasleaksandaccumulatesintheareaaroundtheunit,itcouldcausean
explosion.
n Do not use intermediate connection of the power cord or the extension
cord and do not connect many devices to one AC outlet.
Itcouldcauseareoranelectricshockduetodefectivecontact,defective
insulation,exceedingthepermissiblecurrent,etc.
n Be sure to use the parts provided or specied parts for the installation
work.
Theuseofdefectivepartscouldcauseaninjuryorleakageofwaterdue
toare,anelectricshock,theunitfalling,etc.
n When plugging the power supply plug into the outlet, make sure that
there is no dust, clogging, or loose parts in both the outlet and the
plug. Make sure that the power supply plug is pushed completely into
the outlet.
Ifthereisdust,clogging,orloosepartsonthepowersupplyplugorthe
outlet,itcouldcauseelectricshockorre.Ifloosepartsarefoundonthe
powersupplyplug,replaceit.
n Attach the electrical cover to the indoor unit and the service panel
to the outdoor unit securely.
Iftheelectricalcoveroftheindoorunitand/ortheservicepanelofthe
outdoorunitarenotattachedsecurely,itcouldresultinareoranelectric
shockduetodust,water,etc.
n When installing, relocating, or servicing the unit, make sure that no
substance other than the specied refrigerant (R410A) enters the
refrigerant circuit.
Anypresenceofforeignsubstancesuchasaircancauseabnormalpres-
sureriseandmayresultinexplosionorinjury.Theuseofanyrefrigerant
otherthan that specied for thesystem will cause mechanical failure,
systemmalfunction,orunitbreakdown.Intheworstcase,thiscouldlead
toaseriousimpedimenttosecuringproductsafety.
n Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere. If refrigerant
leaks during installation, ventilate the room.
Ifrefrigerantcomesincontactwithare,harmfulgascouldbegenerated.
n Check that the refrigerant gas does not leak after installation has
been completed.
Ifrefrigerantgasleaksindoors,andcomesintocontactwiththeameofa
fanheater,spaceheater,stove,etc.,harmfulsubstanceswillbegenerated.
n Use appropriate tools and piping materials for installation.
ThepressureofR410Ais1.6timesmorethanR22.Notusingappropriate
toolsormaterialsandincompleteinstallationcouldcausethe pipesto
burstorinjury.
n When pumping down the refrigerant, stop the compressor before
disconnecting the refrigerant pipes.
Iftherefrigerantpipesaredisconnectedwhilethecompressorisrunning
andthestopvalveisopen,aircouldbedrawninandthepressureinthe
refrigerationcyclecouldbecomeabnormallyhigh.Thiscouldcausethe
pipestoburstorinjury.
n When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes
before starting the compressor.
Ifthecompressorisstartedbeforetherefrigerantpipesareconnected
andwhenthestopvalveisopen,aircouldbedrawninandthepressure
intherefrigerationcyclecouldbecomeabnormallyhigh.Thiscouldcause
thepipestoburstorinjury.
n Fasten a are nut with a torque wrench as specied in this manual.
Iffastenedtootight,aarenutmaybreakafteralongperiodandcause
refrigerantleakage.
n The unit shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regula-
tions.
n Earth the unit correctly.
Donotconnecttheearthtoagaspipe,waterpipe,lightningrodortel-
ephoneearth.Defectiveearthingcouldcauseelectricshock.
n Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker.
Failuretoinstallanearthleakagebreakermayresultinelectricshockorre.
n Perform the drainage/piping work securely according to the installation
manual.
Ifthereisdefectinthedrainage/pipingwork,watercoulddropfromtheunit,
soakinganddamaginghouseholdgoods.
n Do not touch the air inlet or the aluminum ns of the outdoor unit.
Thiscouldcauseinjury.
n Do not install the outdoor unit where small animals may live.
Ifsmallanimalsenterandtouchtheelectricpartsinsidetheunit,itcould
causeamalfunction,smokeemission,orre.Also,adviseusertokeep
theareaaroundtheunitclean.

4-2. GAS CHARGE
Performgaschargetounit.
1)Connectgascylindertotheserviceportofstopvalve.
2)Performairpurgeofthepipe(orhose)comingfromrefrigerantgascylinder.
3)Replenishspeciedamountoftherefrigerant,whileoperatingtheairconditioner
forcooling.
Note:
Incaseofaddingrefrigerant,complywiththequantityspeciedfortherefrigerat-
ingcycle.
CAUTION:
Whenchargingtherefrigerantsystemwithadditionalrefrigerant,besuretouseliquid
refrigerant.Addinggasrefrigerantmaychangethecompositionoftherefrigerantin
thesystemandaffectnormaloperationoftheairconditioner.Also,chargetheliquid
refrigerantslowly,otherwisethecompressorwillbelocked.
Tomaintainthehighpressureofthegascylinder,warmthegascylinderwithwarm
water(under40°C)duringcoldseason.Butneverusenakedreorsteam.
1)Removeserviceportcapofstopvalveonthesideoftheoutdoorunit
gaspipe.(Thestopvalvesarefullyclosedandcoveredincapsin
theirinitialstate.)
2)Connectgaugemanifoldvalveandvacuumpumptoserviceportof
stopvalveonthegaspipesideoftheoutdoorunit.
3)Runthevacuumpump.(Vacuumizeformorethan15minutes.)
4)Checkthevacuumwithgaugemanifoldvalve,thenclosegauge
manifoldvalve,andstopthevacuumpump.
5)Leaveasitisforoneortwominutes.Makesurethepointerofgauge
manifoldvalveremainsinthesameposition.Conrmthatpressure
gaugeshows-0.101MPa[Gauge](-760mmHg).
6)Removegaugemanifoldvalvequicklyfromserviceportofstopvalve.
7)
Fullyopenallstopvalvesonthegaspipeandtheliquidpipe.Operating
withoutfullyopeninglowerstheperformanceandthiscausestrouble.
8)Referto1-2.,andchargetheprescribedamountofrefrigerantif
needed.Besuretochargeslowlywithliquidrefrigerant.Otherwise,
compositionoftherefrigerantinthesystemmaybechangedand

Mitsubishi MXZ-4E71VAD Questions and Answers


#1 Are Mitsubishi air conditioners any good?

So, which air conditioner brand do consumers rate best in 2021? Mitsubishi Heavy Industries continues to chill in the number one spot for three years running. It earned five-star reviews for reliability, functionality and features, ease of use, noise while operating, value for money and overall satisfaction.

#2 Is Mitsubishi or Daikin better?

Both have exceptional cooling efficiencies (23 SEER) while Daikin has better heating efficiency (12.5 HSPF) at a lower price. Mitsubishi, on the other hand, is significantly quieter indoors and has a wider operating range down to -15 F. The choice between these two should come down to either climate or use.
