3. BEFORE INSTALLATION

<Transporting the Unit>

As shown in figure 2, bring the unit slowly. (Take care not to let hands 
or things come in contact with rear fins.)

Always hold the unit by the corners, as holding it by the 
side intake holes on the casing may cause them to 
deform.

Use only accessories and parts which are of the designated specifi-
cation when installing.

4. SELECTING INSTALLATION SITE

(1) Select an installation site where the following conditions are 

satisfied and that meets with your customer’s approval.

• Places which are well-ventilated.
• Places where the unit does not bother next-door neighbors.
• A locations where small animals 

will not make nests in the unit.

• Safe places which can withstand

 the unit’s weight and vibration 

and where the unit can be installed level.

• Locations not exposed to rain.
• A locations where there is 

enough space to install the unit.

• Places where the indoor and 

outdoor unit’s piping and wiring 

lengths come within the allowable ranges.

• A location where there is no risk of flammable gas leaking. 

(2) If the unit is installed in a location where it might be 

exposed to strong wind, install as per figure 3.

• 16.4 ft/sec (5 m/sec) or more strong wind blown against the out-

door unit’s air outlet causes the outdoor unit to deteriorate in air 
capacity and suck in the air blown out of its air outlet (short cir-
cuit), and the following effects may result.

• Drop in performance.
• Increased frost formation in heating mode.
• Shutting down due to increase in pressure.

• If very strong wind blows continuously on the side of the outdoor 

unit with the outlet vent, the fan may turn in reverse at high 
speed and break, so install as per figure 3.

(Refer to figure 3)

1.

Turn the air outlet side toward the building’s wall, fence or 
windbreak screen.

2.

Air inlet grille

3.

Ensuring there is enough space for installing the unit.

4.

Set the outlet side at a right angle to the direction of the 
wind.

5.

Strong wind

6.

Blown air

(3) In installing the unit in a place frequently exposed to snow, 

pay special attention to the following:

• Elevate the foundation as high as possible.
• Attach the snow hood (field supply).
• Remove the rear inlet grille to prevent snow from accumulating 

on the rear fins.

(4)

The outdoor unit may short circuit depending on its environment, 
so use the louvers (field supply).

(5)

The refrigerant gas (R410A) is a safe, non-toxic and non-flam-
mable gas, but if it leaks into the room, the concentration may 
exceed tolerance levels, especially in small rooms, so steps need 
to be taken to prevent refrigerant leakage. See the equipment 
design reference for details.

(6)

Inverter-type air conditioners sometimes cause static in other 
electrical appliances.
When selecting an installation location, make sure the air condi-
tioner and all wiring are sufficiently far away from radios, comput-
ers, stereos, and other appliances, as shown in figure 1.
Particularly for locations with weak reception, ensure there is a 
distance of at least 9.8 ft (3 m) for indoor remote controllers, 
place power supply wiring and inter-unit wiring in conduits, and 
ground the conduits. Use shielded wire for inter-unit wiring.

Precautions when installing units in series

>

• The direction for inter-unit piping 

is either forward or down when 

installing units in series.

• If the piping is brought out from the back, the outdoor unit will 

require at least 10 inch (250 mm) from its right side. 

(7)-1 IN CASE OBSTACLES EXIST ONLY IN FRONT OF THE 

AIR INLET

When nothing is obstructing the top

Installation of single unit

• In case obstacles exist only in front of the air inlet

(Refer to figure 4-[1])

• In case obstacles exist in front of the air inlet and on both sides 

of the unit
