(a) Conditional extension up till 295 ft. (90 m) is possible without additional option
kit:
In case the outdoor location is higher than indoor: extension is possible up till
295 ft. (90 m) and following 2 conditions must be fullled:
Liquid piping size up (see table Size up for equivalent length for outdoor-
indoor units over 295 ft. (90 m) on page10).
Dedicated setting on outdoor unit is required (see [2-49]= on page35).
In case the outdoor location is lower than indoor: extension is possible up till
295ft. (90 m) and following 6 conditions must be fullled:
130-197 ft. (40-60 m): minimum connection ratio connected: 80%.
197-213 ft. (60-65 m): minimum connection ratio connected: 90%.
213-262 ft. (65-80 m): minimum connection ratio connected: 100%.
262-295 ft. (80-90 m): minimum connection ratio connected: 110%.
Liquid piping size up (see table Size up for equivalent length for outdoor-indoor
units over 295 ft. (90 m) on page10).
Dedicated setting on outdoor unit is required (see [2-35]= on page35).
