5 BEFORE OPERATION
!
C A U T I O N
•
Supply electrical power to the system for approximately 12 hours before start-up or a long shutdown. Do not start the system immediately after
power supply, it may cause a compressor failure because the compressor is not heated well.
•
When the system is started after a shutdown longer that approximately 3 months, it is recommended to check the system by your service contractor.
•
Turn OFF the main switch when the system is to be stopped for a long period of time: If the main switch is not turned OFF, electricity will be used,
because the oil heater is always energised during compressor stopping.
•
Make sure that the outdoor unit is not covered with snow or ice. If covered, remove it by using hot water (approximately 50°C). If the water
temperature is higher that 50 °C, it will cause damage to plastic parts.
•
If only the indoor units 0.8 or 1.0HP are connected, recommended maximum connectable number is 8. If more than 8, perception of cold draft may
occur at the heating operation.
