Installation must be performed by a qualified HVAC technician in accordance with all local codes and the National Electrical Code (NEC).
WARNING! Risk of electrical shock and refrigerant exposure. Only qualified personnel should install or service this equipment. Disconnect all power before servicing.
After installation, the system must be commissioned by a technician to ensure proper operation.
CAUTION! Incorrect refrigerant charge can damage the compressor and void the warranty.
Primary control is through the compatible AccuLink thermostat. The outdoor unit has an LED status light for diagnostics.
Thermostat Menus (Example): SYSTEM (Cool, Heat, Off, Auto), FAN (Auto, On), TEMPERATURE SETPOINT, SCHEDULE, HUMIDITY CONTROL, INSTALLER SETUP (for technician only).
Outdoor Unit LED Codes: Steady Green = Normal Operation. Flashing Codes indicate specific faults (e.g., 1 flash = Communication Error, 3 flashes = High Pressure Lockout).
Installer Settings (via Thermostat): System type (Heat Pump/AC), CFM settings, compressor minimum/maximum run times, accessory configuration.
The AccuLink system uses a 4-wire communication bus (C, D1, D2, G) instead of conventional 24V control wires.
Tip: Use shielded communication cable if running near high-voltage lines to prevent interference.
Use the thermostat to control system operation.
WARNING! Do not switch between heating and cooling modes rapidly. Allow several minutes between mode changes.
Regular maintenance is required for efficiency, performance, and warranty compliance.
Homeowner (Monthly/Seasonally): - Inspect/clean or replace indoor air filter. - Ensure outdoor unit coil is free of leaves, grass, and debris. - Keep area around outdoor unit clear (2 ft minimum).
Qualified Technician (Annually): - Inspect electrical connections and tighten if necessary. - Check refrigerant charge and system pressures. - Clean indoor coil and outdoor coil as needed. - Inspect condensate drain and clear if clogged. - Check blower wheel and motor. - Verify all system functions and safety controls.
CAUTION! Homeowners should only perform filter maintenance. All other service must be done by a qualified technician.

| Symptom | Possible Cause | Corrective Action |
|---|---|---|
| System not turning on | Power loss, tripped breaker, thermostat setting | Check circuit breakers and disconnect switches. Verify thermostat is set to COOL and below room temp. |
| No cooling/weak cooling | Dirty filter, blocked coils, low refrigerant | Replace air filter. Clear debris from outdoor unit. Contact technician to check charge. |
| Outdoor unit fan not running | Obstruction, faulty capacitor, motor | Turn off power and check for obstructions in fan. Contact technician. |
| Ice on refrigerant lines/coil | Low airflow, low refrigerant | Turn system OFF. Check/replace filter. Contact technician. |
| Thermostat displays "No Comm" or blank | Communication wire issue, power loss | Check for loose communication wire connections at thermostat and indoor unit. Restore power. |
| Frequent cycling | Dirty filter, oversized unit, thermostat location | Replace filter. Contact technician to evaluate sizing and thermostat placement. |
Reset: For lockout conditions, turn system OFF at thermostat for 5 minutes, then back ON. If problem persists, call for service.
