Installation Manual and Owner's Guide

5. Now remove the cover on the top refrigerant connection
valve using a 19 mm open ended wrench (i.e. crescent or
adjustable). Open the valve by turning it counter-clockwise as
far as it will go using a 5 mm Allen key. The valve is now open.
If the valve is not opened fully, the system may malfunction
and suffer damage. Screw the cover back on to the top valve
and tighten it well to ensure that it is properly sealed.

6. Now remove the cover on the bottom valve using a 19
mm crescent (or adjustable) wrench. Open the valve by
turning it counter-clockwise as far as it will go using a 5
mm Allen key. The valve is now open. If the valve is not
opened fully, the system may malfunction and suffer
damage. Screw the cover back on to the bottom valve
and tighten it well to ensure that it is properly sealed.
7. After completing steps 1- 6, repeat steps 2-6 for each lineset. Check that all of the connections are sealed correctly
using leak detection spray or soap suds. If any bubbles form, the system has a leak and the screw connectors must be
retightened using a crescent or adjustable wrench.
8. After opening all of the lineset connection valves, you must also open the two main valves
(King Valve) as indicated after installation is complete. To do this, remove the plastic caps,
and turn counter clockwise with a 5mm allen wrench.
9. Start the equipment so that the operating pressures build
up inside the system. Check all the connectors again for
signs of leaks
a) during cooling mode
b) in heating mode.
NOTE
If any bubbles form, the system has a
leak and the screw connectors must be
retightened.
All of these steps must be completed BEFORE powering on the unit. Failing to do so
could damage the unit.
