1. Safety Precautions Read the following “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before perform any servicing. Electrical work must be installed or serviced by a licensed electrician. Be sure to use the correct rating of the power plug and main circuit for the model installed. The caution items stated here must be followed because these important contents are related to safety. The meaning of each indication used is as below.
18. For R410A models, when connecting the piping, do not use any existing (R22) pipes and flare nuts. Using such same may cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle (piping), and possibly result in explosion and injury. Use only R410A materials. Thickness of copper pipes used with R410A must be more than 0.8mm. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8mm. It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m. 19.

10. Installation Instruction 10.1 Select The Best Location 10.1.1 Outdoor Unit If an awning is built over the unit to prevent direct sunlight or rain, be careful that heat radiation from the condenser is not obstructed. There should not be any animal or plant which could be affected by hot air discharged. Keep the spaces indicated by arrows from wall, ceiling, fence or other obstacles. Do not place any obstacles which may cause a short circuit of the discharged air.
Outdoor Unit Installation Guidelines Where a wall or other obstacle is in the path of outdoor unit’s intake or exhaust airflow, follow the installation guidelines below. For any of the below installation patterns, the wall height on the exhaust side should be 1200mm or less. 10.2 Install The Outdoor Unit After selecting the best location, start installation to Indoor/Outdoor Unit Installation Diagram. 1 Fix the unit on concrete or rigid frame firmly and horizontally by bolt nut (ø10 mm).
CUTTING AND FLARING THE PIPING 1 Please cut using pipe cutter and then remove the burrs. 2 Remove the burrs by using reamer. If burrs is not removed, gas leakage may be caused. Turn the piping end down to avoid the metal powder entering the pipe. 3 Please make flare after inserting the flare nut onto the copper pipes. 10.4 Evacuation of the Equipment WHEN INSTALLING AN AIR CONDITIONER, BE SURE TO EVACUATE THE AIR INSIDE THE INDOOR UNIT AND PIPES in the following procedure.
10.5 Connect The Cable To The Outdoor Unit 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Remove Control Board Cover (Metal) by loosening 2 screws. Remove Valve Cover (Metal) by loosening 2 screws. Remove Plugs. Fix the conduit connectors to the knock out holes with lock-nuts, then secure them. Connecting wire between indoor unit and outdoor unit should be UL listed or CSA approved 4 conductor wires minimum AWG16 in accordance with local electric codes. Wire Connection to the power supply (208/230V 60Hz) through circuit breaker.
11. Operation Control 11.1 Cooling Operation 11.1.1 When cooling operation is enabled, based on outdoor ambient temperature, fan motor control will be adjusted according to figure below: 11.1.2 Outdoor fan control Annual Cooling control This control is to enable cooling operation when outdoor ambient temperature is low. Control start conditions: o Cooling operation is activated with compressor ON.
11.2 Heating Operation 11.2.1 Outdoor fan control When heating operation is enabled, based on outdoor ambient temperature, fan motor control will be adjusted according to figure below: To improve the judgment accuracy, indoor room temperature sampling starts when any indoor unit has stopped capability supplied (heating thermo-off) during heating operation with compressor ON, outdoor unit will send signal to all thermo-off indoor units to ON fan motor and get room temperature sample.

This control detect outdoor ambient temperature and perform the fan speed adjustment during heating operation. 13.
13.8 Deice Control When outdoor pipe temperature and outdoor air temperature is low, deice operation starts where indoor fan motor and outdoor fan motor stop, indoor unit horizontal vane close and operation LED blink with compressor ON. 13.9 Time Delay Safety Control (Restart Control) The compressor will not restart within three minutes after compressor is stopped. This control is not applicable if the power supply reset or after deice condition. 13.
13.13 Compressor Protection Control (Gas leak detection control 1) Control start conditions o For 5 minutes, the compressor continuously operates and total current is low. o During Cooling or Soft Dry operation: Indoor intake temperature — indoor piping temperature is below 4°C. o During Heating operation: Indoor pipe temperature — indoor intake temperature is below 3°C. o Not during deice control. o Compressor ON with maximum frequency.
14. Servicing Mode 14.1 CU-2E18NBK 14.1.1 Pump down operation (SW1) Operate the pump down process according to the following procedure o Confirm the valve on the liquid side and gas side are open. o Press PUMP DOWN button (SW1) on the Service PCB inside the outdoor unit for more than 5 seconds. Pump down (cooling) operation is performed for 15 minutes. o Set the liquid side 3 way valve to close position and wait until the pressure gauge indicates 0.01Mpa (0.1kg/cm2G).
14.1.3 Wiring Error check The unit capable to correct the wiring error automatically by following procedures. o Confirm the valve on the liquid side and gas side is open. o Press WIRING CHECK button (SW3) on the Service PCB inside the outdoor unit for more than 10 seconds to start wiring check operation. o Wiring check process will complete in approximately 10 minutes. However, wiring check operation will not start within 3 minutes after compressor is stopped.
15. Troubleshooting Guide 15.1 Self Diagnosis Function The display screen of wireless remote control unit and the self-diagnosis LEDs (green) on the outdoor printed circuit board in the outdoor unit can be used to identify the location of the problem. Refer to the table below to identify and solve the cause of the problem, and then re-start the air conditioner system. If the problem is solved and operation returns to normal. LED 1 illuminates and others LED are off.
16. Disassembly and Assembly Instructions WARNING High Voltage are generated in the electrical parts area by the capacitor. Ensure that the capacitor has discharged sufficiently before proceeding with repair work. Failure to heed this caution may result in electric shocks. 16.1 Outdoor Unit Removal Procedure Caution! When handling electronic controller, be careful of electrostatic discharge. 16.1.1 1 2 16.1.
16.1.3 6 7 8 9 16.1.4 1 2 Removing the Control P.C. Board Remove the drip proof cover. Disconnect the connectors (lead wires of the compressor, sensor, and others). Remove the screw at the right side of the control box, and pull out the entire control box. Release the control P.C. Board tab to remove the control P.C. Board. Removing the Propeller Fan and Fan Motor Follow the steps in 16.1.1 for removing the cabinet top plate and cabinet front plate.
