Quick Start Guide
Basic Installation Steps
Whether you’re an experienced installer and service technician or relatively new to the business, if
you’ve installed a 14 SEER single stage heat pump before, you can install the LYNX™ 18 inverter-driven
heat pump. Powered by our proprietary QuickLink™ technology, the 4HP18V is designed to make
applying the product and installing it easy. All the basic installation steps are the same and a couple
steps you should be aware of before you begin:
• You’ll need select the tonnage the unit will operate in on
the control board
• You’ll also need to select the operating mode – units
ship in Efciency mode in cooling and Efciency mode in
heating
• 3-ton units ship with a suction line lter drier installed while
5-ton models ship with a liquid line lter drier that is eld
installed.
REFRIGERANT CHARGING
There is a specic charging mode to ensure the unit runs at
full capacity. The charging mode is available in both heating
and cooling operation.
• Move the jumper to charge mode for cooling. Weigh-in
is the preferred method for charging in heating, to get the
unit to run at 100% capacity in heating mode, unplug the
wire to the liquid pressure transducer
• Refer to the charging data on the unit sticker for refrigerant
amounts
