1. Completely tighten the Á are nuts of the indoor and outdoor units, conÀ rm
that both the liquid service and gas service valves are set to the closed
position.
2. Connect the refrigerant manifold, blue hose with the push pin of shut-off
knob of the low side to the gas service valve port.
3. Connect the refrigerant manifold, yellow hose to the shut-off high side
connection to the vacuum pump.
4. Fully open the shut-off knob low side of the manifold valve.
5. Operate the vacuum pump to evacuate.
6. Perform evacuation for 30 minutes and check whether the refrigeration
low side pressure gauge indicates -0.1Mpa(14.5Psi). If the meter does not
indicate -0.1Mpa(14.5Psi) after evacuating for 30 minutes, it should be
evacuated 20 minutes more. If the pressure can’t achieve -0.1Mpa(14.5Psi)
after evacuating 50 minutes, please check if there are some leakage
points. Fully close the shut-off knob low side of the manifold and stop the
operation of the vacuum pump. ConÀ rm that the gauge needle does not move
(approximately 5 minutes after turning off the vacuum pump).
