4 English
• In areas where the outside air temperature drops below 32°F (0°C)
for more than 12 hours continuously, install a drain-pan heater
(optional accessory) on the bottom frame to prevent the drain from
freezing.
• An optional drain pan heater is available when the unit is installed
in a climate where the drain may freeze.
• The installer should use their local knowledge to determine if this
accessory is necessary to prevent the drain from freezing.
• Do not use a concentrated drain plug (field supply).
(If a drain plug and/or drain pipe are/is used, there is a risk of freez-
ing.)
• If there is a problem with drain dripping from the bottom frame
drain, set up a roof (field supply) below the outdoor unit, or enact
other countermeasures.
• Remove the rear inlet grille to prevent snow from accumulating on
the rear fins.
(4) When there is possibility of short-circuit depending on the ambient
situation, use the wind direction adjusting plate (optional acces-
sory).
(5) The refrigerant gas (R410A) is a safe, non-toxic and non-flammable
gas, but if it leaks into the room, the concentration may exceed tol-
erance 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 elec-
trical appliances.
When selecting an installation location, make sure the air condi-
tioner and all wiring are sufficiently far away from radios, computers,
stereos, and other appliances, as shown in figure 4.
Particularly for locations with weak reception, ensure there is a dis-
tance of at least 9.8 ft. (3 m) for indoor remote controllers, place
power supply wiring and transmission wiring in conduits, and
ground the conduits. Use non-shielded wire for transmission wiring.

Precautions when installing units in series >
• The direction for field piping is either forward or down when install-
ing units in series, as shown in the figure (5~10).
• If the piping is brought out from the back, the outdoor unit will
require at least 10 in. (250 mm) from its right side.
