6. Connect the drain line. The drain line must not have a trap
anywhere in its length. The drain line must pitch downwards.
The drain line must be insulated up to the outside wall.

drainage, a condensate pump accessory is available. Consult the
condensate pump Installation Instructions for more information.
WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROL INSTALLATION
Mounting Bracket (if installed on the wall)
1. Use the two screws supplied with the control to attach the
mounting bracket to the wall in a location selected by the
customer and within operating range.
2. Install the remote control batteries.
3. Place the remote control into the remote control mounting
bracket.
4. For remote control operation, refer to unit owner’s manual.
WIRED REMOTE CONTROLLER
For setup instructions, refer to the wired controller installation
manual. Refer to Fig. 23 for the 4 and 5 Pin connections for the

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
Never use the system compressor as a vacuum pump.
CAUTION
!
Refrigerant tubes and the indoor coil should be evacuated using the
recommended deep vacuum method (500 microns). The alternate
triple evacuation method may be used if the procedure outlined
below is followed. Always break a vacuum with dry nitrogen.
FINAL TUBING CHECK
IMPORTANT: Ensure certain factory tubing on the indoor unit
has not shifted during shipment. Ensure tubes are not rubbing
against each other or any sheet metal. Pay close attention to the
feeder tubes, making sure the wire ties on the feeder tubes are
secure and tight.
