Danger
Warning
Do not power the system using an extension cable or with wiring smaller than the specified gauge. Do not
share the electrical cable with other appliances. Improper or insufficient power supply can cause
undesirable operation, fire, or electrical shock.
When connecting the refrigerant piping, do not allow any substances or gases other than the specified
refrigerant to enter the unit. The presence of other gases or substances will lower the unit's capacity,
causing abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle. This can cause an explosion or injury, as well
as permanent equipment failure. Note: No dust, humidity, or air is allowed to enter the unit.
Do not allow children to play with or around the air conditioner. Supervise children near the unit at all
times.
1. Trained personnel must complete the installation according to the applicable codes. Defective installation
can cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire. Using the proper tools is required.
2. Perform the installation according to the instructions. Improper installation can cause water leakage,
undesirable performance, electrical shock, or fire. In North America, an authorized personnel must perform
the installation in accordance with the requirements of NEC and CEC.
3. If the unit requires repairs or maintenance, contact a qualified and licensed HVAC technician.
4. Only use the included accessories, parts, and specified items for installation. Using non-standard parts can
cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire, and total unit failure.
5. Install the unit on top of a firm structure that can fully support its weight. If the chosen location cannot
support the unit's weight or the installation is not done properly, the unit may fall and cause serious injury and
damage.

Safety Precautions
Air Conditioner Installation & User Manual
For electrical work, follow all local and national wiring standards and regulations, especially in this installation
manual. You must use an independent circuit and dedicated breaker to supply power. Do not connect other
appliances to the same circuit. Insufficient electrical capacity or defects in electrical work can cause electrical
shock or fire.
For all electrical work, use the specified cables. Connect cables tightly, then clamp them securely to prevent
external forces from damaging the terminals. Improper electrical connections can overheat, causing fire and
electrical shock.
Properly arrange the wiring to ensure that the control board cover can close correctly. If the control board is not
closed properly, it can lead to corrosion and cause the connection points on the terminal to heat up, catch fire, or
cause electrical shock.
Use specially designed air conditioners for functional environments, such as kitchens, server rooms, etc.
If a part of the electrical wiring is damaged, a certified service agent or similarly qualified technicians must
replace the wiring in order to avoid a hazard.
Children aged 8 and above, as well as individuals with lack of experience or reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities can use the appliance if supervision or instruction is given. 'RQRWDOORZFhildrenWR play with or
nearthe appliance. Children or untrained personnel should be restricted from cleaning and performing
maintenance onthe appliance, unless they're given supervision.
Warning
The product must be properly grounded GXULQJWKHGXUDWLRQRIWKHLQVWDOODWLRQSURFHVV, otherwise electrical
shock may occur.
Install the drainage piping according to the instructions in this manual. Improper drainage may cause water
damage to your home and property.
Notes about Fluorinated Gases
1. This air conditioner contains fluorinated gases. For specific information on the type of gas and amount, refer to
the relevant label on the unit.
2. Qualified and well-trained personnel must complete the installation, repair the unit, and perform service and
maintenance.
3. A certified HVAC technician must remove and recycle the product.
4. If the system has a leak-detection feature installed, check its functionality at least every 12 months.

Regarding the Airflow of the Indoor Unit
The air that is pulled in by the fan (the "return air") enters the grille and is
passed through the filter. The air is then cooled/dehumidified/heated through
the heat exchanger.
The direction of the air output is manipulated up and down by the motorized
louver, as well as left to right by the manually controlled vertical deflectors.
Some models may come with "dual-swing" capability, which offers both a
horizontal and vertical motorized air flow swing.
Control the System's Airflow
1. Press the buttons to activate the air direction adjusters.
Press the Swing button to trigger the horizontal flaps to swing up and down.
Press the button again to stop the swing movement at the current angle.
Press the Swing button to trigger the vertical flaps to swing left and right.
Press the button again to stop the swing movement at the current angle.
2. If the vertical deflectors, which are located underneath the flaps, are adjusted
manually, they can be used to fix the airflow in a certain vertical position before
turning the system on.
Note: For some models, press either of the Swing buttons for > 3 seconds to
allow more fine adjustment of the airflow angle.
• Do not manipulate the louvers themselves
manually or serious damage may occur.
• Only make deflector adjustments when the
system is switched off.
• Never poke fingers, sticks, or other objects into
the air inlet/outlet vents.

Important Note Regarding Operating Temperatures
The system is designed to run within a certain range of temperatures, which are listed below. The system has
built-in protections that may stop the appliance when the ambient temperatures goes outside of these ranges.
Inverter Air Conditioner
The system will restart after a 3-min delay if you stop and restart the air conditioner or change its mode (as
protection for the compressor).
Testing and rating agencies develop standard rating conditions to obtain full system-rated capacity and
efficiency. Within certain limitations, variable speed compressors compensate the deviations from the rating
conditions, especially the atmospheric conditions.
Heat pump systems function by exchanging energy between the indoor air and outdoor ambient air
(atmospheric) in the form of heat. The system's net cooling or heating capacities and efficiencies change by
atmospheric conditions, as well as the indoor air conditions, such as temperatures and humidity levels.
Professional individuals use detailed calculations to determine the capacity of the system required for a specific
area or application, which are based on several internal and external factors.
To further optimize the performance of the unit, complete the following:
• Keep doors and windows closed.
• Use Timer On and Timer Off functions to limit energy usage.
• Do not block air inlets or outlets.
• Regularly inspect and clean air filters.

Full system-rated capacity and efficiency is obtained at the standard rating conditions as developed by
the testing and rating agencies. Deviations from the rating conditions, especially the atmospheric
conditions, will be compensated by the variable speed compressor, within certain limitations.
Heat pump systems function by exchanging energy, in the form of heat, between the indoor air and
the outdoor ambient air (atmospheric). The system’s net cooling or heating capacities and efficiencies

Periodic Maintenance is Essential for the System!
Maintaining the air conditioner will ensure that the system stays efficient. Before carrying out any sort of
maintenance, ensure that the power supply to the system is turned off for > 5 minutes. Wear safety gloves
when working on the equipment, due to sharp aluminum fin edges of the coil.
Indoor Unit
Anti-Dust Filters (Inspect once every 2 weeks)
1. Open the front panel by pulling outward and upward at the
indicated location.
2. Keep the front panel raised with one hand, then remove
the air filter with the other.
3. The filters are washable and should be cleaned with warm
water (under 104°F/40°C).
4. Leave the filters to dry in a cool, dry place.
5. Keep the front panel raised with one hand, then insert the
air filters with the other.
6. Close the front panel.
Note: Accessorial electrostatic or deodorizing filters are not
washable and should be replaced every 6 months.
Interior of the Indoor Air Handler

The piping "pigtails" pre-attached to the indoor unit can be run in three different ways as shown in the illustration.
Decide which type of configuration is most suitable before continuing.
By default, it is routed for a left side exit as shown in option 1. This method can either use the left side knockout
for a side exit or a wall hole can be drilled on the left side of the unit's rear.
Routing it straight through the back of the system (option 2) will facilitate the connections to the copper pipe
extensions to be made outside. This is recommended to simplify the process.
Option 3 is a right side exit, but it is not recommended as it involves a 180° bend of the piping, which increases
the risk of kinking or collapsing the lines dramatically. Bend slowly and cautiously.
If a side-exit is chosen, there are knock-out panels on either side of the unit that can be cut along the groove to
provide a notch for the pipe to exit from. Use a suitable cutter to do this.
For the method chosen, run the piping in the direction of the wall hole. Bind the copper pipes, drain pipe, and
power cables together with tape. Keep the drain pipe at the bottom so that the water can flow freely. Ensure that
the bundle is exiting at a continuous downward pitch.

side that the refrigerant piping exits the unit from.
2. Attach any drain hose extensions (sold separately) to the end of
the drain hose.
3. Wrap the connection point of the drain hose firmly with Teflon
tape to create a good seal and prevent leaks.
4. For the portion of the drain hose that will remain indoors, wrap it
with foam pipe insulation to prevent condensation.
5. Remove the air filter and pour a small amount of water into the
drain pan to make sure that water flows away from the unit
smoothly.
The indoor unit has two drain connections on the left and right
sides. Either one can be utilized. One side will have a hose
connected, while the other is plugged.
Make sure to arrange the drain hose according to the illustrations.

Do Not Deform Pipe While Cutting
Connect the Refrigerant Piping
The length of the refrigerant piping will affect the performance and energy efficiency of the unit. Nominal
efficiency is tested on units with a pipe length of 16 feet (4.9 m). Factory precharge is sufficient for supporting
up to 25 feet (7.6 m) of connected lineset. Piping should not be shorter than 10 feet (3 m) in length. Refer to the
table below for specifications on the maximum length and drop height of the piping. If the factory precharge is
modified, make a note of the charge modification amount on page 58.
Step 1: Cut Pipes (if cutting the
lineset shorter)*
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take care to cut and
flare them properly. This will ensure efficient operation
and minimize the need for future maintenance.
1. Measure the distance between the indoor and
outdoor units.
2. Use a rolling blade type pipe cutter to cut the pipe a
little longer than the measured distance.
3. Make sure that the pipe is cut at a perfect 90° angle.
Refer below for bad cut examples.
Be careful not to damage, kink, or deform the pipe
while cutting. This will drastically reduce the efficiency
and capacity of the unit and may cause internal
damage.
Step 2: Remove Any Burrs Carefully
Burrs can affect the air-tight seal of the refrigerant piping
connection. They must be completely removed. Follow
these steps for proper deburring.
1. Hold the pipe at a downward angle to prevent burrs
from falling into the pipe.
2. Use a reamer or deburring tool to remove all burrs
from the cut section of the pipe.

Air Evacuation & Bleeding the Circuit
The air and/or humidity left inside the refrigeration circuit can contaminate the refrigerant and cause abnormal
spikes in pressure, leading to eventual compressor malfunctions. Therefore, after connecting the indoor and
outdoor units to create a closed system, it is necessary to bleed the air and humidity out of the circuit by using
a vacuum pump.
Perform the evacuation after the initial installation or when the unit is relocated. For first time installations, do
not prematurely release the refrigerant prior to evacuation. Keep the valve caps sealed.
Check to make sure that both high-pressure and
low-pressure pipes between the indoor and
outdoor units are connected properly in
accordance with the "Refrigerant Piping
Connection" section of this manual.
Check to make sure all wiring is connected
properly and is fully enclosed and insulated.

Solutions to Common Issues & Scenarios
Issue: The indoor air handler does not turn on
• Solution: Try the manual emergency button on the indoor unit in order to rule out
problems with the remote.
• Solution: Verify that the wire order is equal between the indoor and outdoor units [1].
The color order must match. Check for splices or damage on the control cable. To rule out
variables, remove any accessorial items, such as UV lights or condensate pumps, until the
problem is resolved.
• Solution for 230V systems: Use a multimeter to check the AC voltage across terminals
L1-L2 on the outdoor system [2]. Touch one probe to L1, the other probe goes on L2. Do
not measure each leg to ground. Verify whether the reading is between 208~253 VAC.
o If the reading is between 208~253 VAC, measure whether the reading is the
same across 2-3 on both the outdoor and indoor units. All readings must
match. The system must receive a full 230V reading in order to function.
o If the reading is 0 VAC, then the system is not receiving proper power from the
power source. Some common reasons are:
A fused disconnect is being used, but fuses are blown and not
inserted properly.
The disconnect box bus-bar is in the Off position.
A double-pole breaker is not being used. Single or tandem breakers
will not operate.
Issue: The pressure reading does not rise when releasing refrigerant during the leak
check
• Solution: Verify that the gauge tube pin on the manifold gauge is fully engaging the outdoor unit service port's
Schrader valve. A pin that is over or underexposed will not allow the gauge to access the refrigerant circuit,
preventing pressure measurement and/or proper vacuuming. The depressor pin inside the hose connector is
adjustable for proper Schrader valve engagement.
o A telltale sign that this is happening is whether the gauge reading goes to instant vacuum when the
pump is first turned on. This means only the gauge is being vacuumed.
o If so, vacuuming will need to be re-performed, since only the gauge itself was vacuumed.

Air Conditioner Installation & User Manual
Issue: The fan runs in Cooling mode but in Heating mode there is weak or no airflow
• Solution: The fan speed control is typically not available to the user in Heating mode. If the coil is unable to
heat up, then the fan will not run at speed. This may indicate low refrigerant as well.
Issue: The system indicates that a refrigerant leak is present
• Solution: Cut off the power to the system. Prepare a soapy water spray and spray the connection points
of the lineset. The point where the bubbles form is where the leak is located. Tighten the connection
and re-test the system. After the leak is repaired, re-charge the system.
Issue: The indoor air handler is leaking water
• Solution: Verify that the indoor unit is both horizontally and vertically leveled.
• Solution: Confirm that the drain tube is at a continuous downward pitch.
o Pour a cup of water over the indoor unit's coils so that it reaches the drain pan.
o Verify that the water drains out of the tube freely. If it doesn't, find the cause and correct it.
Issue: The system is not holding a vacuum
• Solution: A leak in the gauge hoses is likely. Repair the leak and check the vacuum pump.
• Solution: Check the connection points for proper contact and torque, then tighten if necessary.

Appendix
For Systems with Additional Leakage Sensor - If Applicable
Important Notes:
• Use the sensor only in certain specific installation scenarios that may call for an auxiliary refrigerant leak
sensor to be installed. All indoor units possess leak sensing abilities, while only some installations require a
separate sensor. Qualified personnel must maintain the refrigerant sensor. Only use sensors specified by the
manufacturer as replacements.
• The refrigerant sensor has a design life of 15 years. Replace the sensor within its service life.
• The sensor automatically monitors the system operation. If refrigerant concentration exceeds the alarm
threshold, the system will stop the compressor and start the circulation fan for safety.
• The alarm indicators for the refrigerant sensor are shown below:
• The sensor's installation position is illustrated below. Note: The actual location may vary depending on the
model and cabinet design.
