1 Open the air inlet grille.
Press and slide the cover of the air inlet grille in the direction of
the arrow with fingers in the holes on the cover.
Remove the supporting string from the side plate.
While the air inlet grille is being opened, depress the knobs of

at the flaring part.
5 Apply the refrigerant oil in a thin layer to the inside of the
flaring part of the pipe before tightening the flare nut. And the
flare nut must be tightened using two spanners according
to the tightening torque as shown in the figure below. The
tightening work will be easier if tightening the flare pipe in
order of the liquid pipe, the gas pipe. Check the leakage of
the refrigerant after the tightening work.

If the refrigerant oil attaches to the air panel, it may cause a crack.
Pay attention not to attach.
