Knockout procedure
• The indoor/outdoor connecting pipes can be connected to 4
directions. Take off the knockout part of the pipe cover in which
pipes or wires pass through the base plate.
• As shown in the figure, do not remove the pipe cover from the
cabinet so that the knockout hole can be easily punched.
To knock out, punch the 3 connected parts with a screwdriver and
remove the pipe cover by hand.
• After marking the knockout hole, remove the burr and mount the
attached protective bush and guard material for pass-through part
in order to protect pipes and wires.
• After connecting the pipes, be sure to mount the pipe cover. The
pipe cover is easily mounted by cutting off the slit at the lower part
of the cover.
How to remove the front panel
1. Remove screws of the front panel.
2. Pull the front panel downward.
Removing the front panel, the electric parts appear at the front side.
•
The power supply cables can be inserted into the pipe holes.
Enlarge the pipe holes if they are too small.
• Be sure to fix the power cable and indoor/outdoor connecting
cable with bundling band sold on the market so that they do not
make contact with the compressor and the hot pipes.
To ensure good tensile strength, the electric cables must be
fastened using the cable-holder on the plate.
Air purge
• For air purge, use a vacuum pump.
• Do not use refrigerant charged in the outdoor unit for air purge.
(The refrigerant for air purge is not contained in the outdoor unit.)
Electrical cabling
• Be sure to fix the power cables and indoor/outdoor connecting
cables with clamps so that they do not contact with the cabinet,
etc.
