PUMPING DO

When relocating or disposing of the air conditioner, pump down the system following the procedure below so that no refrigerant is released into the atmosphere.

  1. Connect the gauge manifold valve to the service port of the stop valve on the gas pipe side of the outdoor unit.
  2. Fully close the stop valve on the liquid pipe side of the outdoor unit.
  3. Close the stop valve on the gas pipe side of the outdoor unit almost completely so that it can be easily dosed fully when the pressure gauge shows 0 MPa (Gauge] (0 kgf/cm2).
  4. Start the emergency COOL operation. To start the emergency operation in COOL mode, disconnect the power supply plug and/ or turn off the breaker. After 15 seconds, connect the power supply plug and/or turn on the breaker, and then press the E.O. SW once. (The emergency COOL operation can be performed continuously for up to 30 minutes.)
  5. Fully close the stop valve on the gas pipe side of the outdoor unit when the pressure gauge shows 0.05 to 0 MPa [Gauge] (approx. 0.5 to 0 kg ficini.
  6. Stop the emergency COOL operation. Press the E.O. SW several times until all LED lamps turn off. Refer to operating Instructions for details.

WARNING
When pumping down the refrigerant, stop the compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipes. The compressor may burst if air etc. get into it.

CONNECTING THE INTERFACE/CONNECTOR CABLE TO THE AIR CONDITIONER
