3.1 SPLIT, ART cool, ART cool deluxe Type
• Check that all tubing and wiring have been properly con-
nected.
• Check that the gas and liquid side service valves are fully
open.
3.1.1 Prepare remote controller

3.1.2 Precautions in test run
n The initial power supply must provide at least 90% of
the rated voltage.
Otherwise, the air conditioner should not be operated.
n For test run, carry out the cooling operation firstly
even during heating season. If heating operation is
carried out firstly, it leads to the trouble of compres-
sor. Then attention must be paid.
n Carry out the test run more than 5 minutes without
fail. (Test run will be cancelled 18 minutes later auto-
matically)
n The forced operation is started by pressing button for
2 seconds.
The test run is started by pressing button for 3~6 sec-
