attached with the outdoor unit. The added refrigerant shall be R22.
The adding procedure shall be aided with a measuring meter
for a specified amount of supplemented refrigerant
Requirement
Overfilling or underfilling of refrigerant will cause compressor
fault. The amount of the added refrigerant shall be as specified
in the instructions.

Pipe cutting and expanding
If the pipe is too long or the flare is damaged,
it needs to be cut or expanded.
