NOTICE
The refrigerant charging port is connected to the piping
inside the unit. The unit's internal piping is already factory
charged with refrigerant, so be careful when connecting
the charge hose.
6
Open all compressor unit stop valves. At this point, valve A
must remain closed!
7
Take all the precautions mentioned in
into account.
8
Turn on the power of the indoor units, compressor unit and heat
exchanger unit.
9
Activate setting [2‑20] to start the manual additional refrigerant
charge mode. For details, see
"6.1.8 Mode 2: Field settings" on
.
Result:
The unit will start operation.
INFORMATION
The manual refrigerant charge operation will automatically
stop within 30 minutes. If charging is not completed after
30 minutes, perform the additional refrigerant charging
operation again.
INFORMATION
▪ When a malfunction is detected during the procedure
(e.g., in case of closed stop valve), a malfunction code
will be displayed. In that case, refer to
codes when charging refrigerant" on page 13
solve the malfunction accordingly. Resetting the
malfunction can be done by pushing BS3. You can
restart the "Charging" instructions.
▪ Aborting the manual refrigerant charge is possible by
pushing BS3. The unit will stop and return to idle
condition.
10
Open valve A.
11
Charge refrigerant until the remaining determined additional
refrigerant amount is added, and then close valve A.
12
Press BS3 to stop the manual additional refrigerant charge
mode.
NOTICE
Make sure to open all stop valves after (pre-) charging the
refrigerant.
Operating with the stop valves closed will damage the
compressor.
NOTICE
After adding the refrigerant, do not forget to close the lid of
the refrigerant charging port. The tightening torque for the
lid is 11.5 to 13.9 N•m.

Error codes when charging refrigerant
INFORMATION
If a malfunction occurs, the error code is displayed on the
user interface of the indoor unit.
If a malfunction occurs, close valve A immediately. Confirm the
malfunction code and take corresponding action,
