(Unit: N•m)
• After the installation work, be sure to check for gas leaks
of the pipe connections with nitrogen.
• Pressure of R410A is higher than that of R22 (Approx.
1.6 times).
Therefore, using a torque wrench, tighten the flare pipe
connecting sections that connect the indoor/outdoor units
at the specified tightening torque.
Incomplete connections may cause not only a gas leak,
but also trouble with the refrigeration cycle.
Do not apply refrigerant oil to the flared surface.
