1Leave the system in the standby mode.

WARNING

Do not turn on the system! This is necessary for better vacuum operation (full OPEN position of Electronic Expansion Valve).

2Connect the charging hose of the low pressure side of manifold gauge to a gas service port as seen in the picture.

Step 3.3 Evacuating the air

The outdoor unit is loaded with sufficient R-410A refrigerant. Do not vent R-410A into atmosphere: it is a fluorinated greenhouse gas, covered by Kyoto Protocol, with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) = 2088. You should evacuate the air in the indoor unit and in the pipe. If air remains in the refrigerant pipes, it affects the compressor. It may cause reduction of cooling capacity and malfunction. Use a vacuum pump.

CAUTION

When installing, make sure there is no leakage. When recovering the refrigerant, ground the compressor first before removing the connection pipe. If the refrigerant pipe is not properly connected and the compressor works with the stop valve open, the pipe inhales the air and it makes the pressure inside of the refrigerant cycle abnormally high. It may cause explosion and injury.

3Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge anticlockwise.

4Evacuate the air in the connected pipes using the vacuum pump for about 15 minutes.

Make sure that pressure gauge shows -0.1 MPa (-76 cmHg, 5 torr) after about 10 minutes. 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.

5Set a valve cork of liquid and gas service port to the open position.
