In the after-sales test of air conditioner, water needs to be poured into the water receiving disc manually, and then whether water flow exists in the pipeline connecting device or not is observed. If water flows, the installation position of the water receiving disc is indicated to meet the requirement. If no water flow exists, the installation position of the water receiving disc needs to be adjusted.
