• Use C1220 copper phosphorus for copper and copper alloy seamless
pipes, to connect the refrigerant pipes. Use refrigerant pipes with the thick-

Warning:
When installing or moving the air conditioner, use only the specified refriger-
ant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not mix it with any other refrig-

• When commercially available copper pipes are used, wrap liquid and gas pipes
with commercially available insulation materials (heat-resistant to 100 °C or
Die more, thickness of 12 mm or more).
Copper pipe • The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam in-
sulation materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).

• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tighten-
ing flare nut.
• Use 2 wrenches to tighten piping connections.
 • Use refrigerant piping insulation provided to insulate indoor unit connections. In-
sulate carefully.

• Use VP-20 (O.D. ø26 (1”) PVC TUBE) for drain piping and provide 1/100 or more
downward slope.
• After completion of work, check that correct drain is available from the outflow
port of the drain tubing.
