Connection of quick-
release couplings
The refrigerant pipes should be
connected by the customer on the
right-hand side of the outdoor
component.
The pre-filled refrigerant pipes
are connected to the outdoor
component by means of the quick-
connector system. Once installed,
the connections must be insulated
to prevent vapour diffusion.
The following instructions describe
the installation of the refrigerant
pipes of the indoor unit to the
outdoor component.
1. Remove the pre-installed
plastic cover from the outdoor
component (figure 6).
2. Remove the white protective
caps from the quick-connectors
on the outdoor component,
as well as the flexible
refrigerant pipes on the indoor
unit (figures 7 and 8).
3. Before connecting the
refrigerant pipes, ensure that
the quick-release couplings are
situated in front of one another
(figure 9).
4. First connect and hand-tighten
the refrigerant pipes to ensure
they are correctly seated.
5. Then install the suction line
with the largest diameter
(figure 10).
6. Now fully tighten the fittings
using 2 suitably sized open-
ended spanners. Use one
spanner to counter the force
when tightening the fitting
(figure 11)
.
7. Open the stop cocks before
turning on the system using an
Allen key!
