Evacuating the connected pipes
• Excessive torque can be cause of gas leakage.
• Make the electrical connection and leave the system into“stand by mode”. Do not turn on the system!
This is necessary for better vacuum operation (full OPEN position of Electronic Expansion Valve - EEV
3.Connect the charging hose of the

Manifold gauge
4.Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge counterclockwise.
5.Purge the air in the connected pipes using the vacuum pump for about 15 minutes.
Make sure that pressure gauge shows
This procedure is very important to avoid a gas leak.
Close the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge clockwise.
Turn off the vacuum pump.
Check for 2 minutes if there is any pressure change.
Remove the hose of the low pressure side of manifold gauge.
6.Set a valve cork of liquid and gas service port to the open position.

Adding Refrigerant
Add refrigerant charge according to table below:
If you use a pipe longer than 5 m,
40 g of refrigerant
If you use a pipe shorter than 5 m,
The evacuate time is normal.
Refer to the Service Manual for further details.
• The remaining air in the Refrigeration cycle, which contains moisture, may cause malfunction on the compressor.
• Always contact the service center or a professional installation agency for product installation.
