1. WARNINGS
Split-system air conditioners are designed solely for the
purpose of air conditioning indoor rooms of a certain
size and with the conditions of use appropriate to
the installed output.
DO NOT USE THESE UNITS FOR
OTHER PURPOSES.
The heat pump versions can be operated for heating or
cooling purposes.
Split-system air conditioners consist of:
• an indoor unit -
the element that diffuses the treated air throughout
the room (indoor installation)
• an outdoor unit -
the element that takes the heat from the room and
disperses it in the external environment (in cooling
mode), or absorbs it from the external environment
to heat the room (heating mode) (outdoor
installation)
The operation of the various air-conditioner models is
managed with a remote control.
WARNINGS FOR THE INSTALLER
• The unit and its accessories must only be installed
and wired by professionals with the necessary
technical qualifications in installation, conversion,
extension and maintenance of the systems and
who are trained to perform operational and safety
checks on these systems. In this manual, these will
generally be referred to as “Personnel with specific
technical skills”.
• This air conditioner must be installed according to
national plant engineering regulations. Particular
attention must be paid to safety guidelines and
to ensuring that the wiring is correctly connected:
incorrect wiring connection could result in supply
cables, plug or power socket overheating, which
could present a fire risk.
• Ensure that the air conditioner is connected to
the power supply or to a power socket with the
correct voltage and frequency. Using power
supplies with the incorrect voltage and frequency
could damage the unit and consequently risk
starting a fire. The voltage must be stable, without
major fluctuations.
• Install on a solid surface which can bear the
weight of the air conditioner. Check the support is
securely installed and the unit is absolutely stable
after operating for a long time. If it is not securely
fixed, the unit could fall and cause injuries.
• To protect the unit against short circuits, fit a
thermomagnetic isolator switch to the power line
with a minimum contact gap of 3mm on both
poles.
• To ensure good drainage, the condensate
discharge pipes must be correctly installed,
following the installation instructions.
• Do not install the unit in a location where it could
be affected by inflammable gas leaks or deposits
of materials which are inflammable, explosive,
poisonous, corrosive or hazardous substances.
Do not use naked flames near the units. Risk of
fire or explosion. Install the unit in a location
with minimal levels of dust, fumes, humidity and
corrosive agents in the air.
• Do not install in laundries.
• When installing the unit, allow sufficient technical
clearance around the unit for maintenance.
• When installing the unit, take note of its dimensions
and weight. Respect the dimensions stipulated in this
manual with regards to the refrigerant line length,
the height difference between the units, and the
siphons to install along the refrigerant lines.
• Make sure nothing can obstruct air infeed and
outfeed.
• Do not make any modifications to the unit! Do not
attempt to repair the unit alone, this is extremely
dangerous! Incorrect operations could cause
electric shocks, water leaks, fires etc. Contact your
After Sales Service, these operations must only
be carried out by “Personnel with the specific
technical skills”.
• Ensure that the power supply and the installed
output are adequately scaled to supply the air
conditioner correctly.
• Before operating the air conditioner, ensure that
the electric cables, condensate discharge pipes and
cooling connections have been correctly installed
to avoid the risk of water leaks, refrigerant gas leaks
and electric shocks.
• The air conditioner must be correctly earthed. Do
not connect the earth cable to the gas or water
pipes, to the lightning conductor, or to the earth
cable of the telephone. Incorrect earthing could
cause electric shocks.
• Once started up, the air-conditioner mustn’t be
switched off for at least 5 minutes (to allow the oil
to return to the compressor).
• Do not touch the air-conditioner with wet hands.
Risk of electric shocks.
• Periodically check that the installation conditions
of the unit have not been altered: have the system
checked by “Personnel with specific technical skills”.
• The unit and the isolator switch must be turned
off before carrying out maintenance work or
cleaning.
• Check the power supply is disconnected before
carrying out any operations on the unit.
• Do not place objects on the unit, and do not climb
on top of it. Objects or individuals may fall as a
result: risk of damage or injury.
• After completing the electrical wiring, carry out
a test. This operation must only be carried out by
“Personnel with specific technical skills”.
• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced to
avoid any risk of danger. When replacing the power
cable, the new one must be of the type indicated in
the manual. This operation must only be carried out
by “Personnel with specific technical skills”.
• To protect the unit against short circuits, mounted
on the supply line of thermomagnetic isolator
switch with a minimum contact separation of at
least 3mm in all poles.
