Installation of the outdoor unit
Ensure that the outdoor unit is securely fixed and that it can withstand strong wind (e.g. storm, hurricane).
- Install the appliance according to the information contained in the table below.
- For installation in a marine environment (near the sea or ocean), pay attention to the risks of salt-related
damage to the metal parts of the machine.
- Check that the location chosen for installation of the outdoor unit does not cause noise pollution (e.g.
neighbours, bedrooms)
The support must be able to bear the weight of the machine. Adopt all the necessary measures to prevent the
appliance vibrating.
- If you decide to protect the outdoor unit from the rain and direct sunlight, ensure that you do not block the
heat radiation from the compressor.
- Ensure that there is sufficient distance between the outdoor unit and nearby obstacles to ensure correct
installation and proper maintenance and servicing - Protect the appliance from sources of heat and/or
flammable gases.
- The support is secured and can bear the weight and dimensions of the outdoor unit. - The machine must
normally be installed on a flat surface.
For the refrigerant connections, use copper piping specially designed for cooling applications (polished inner
surface, dehydrated and plugged). The thickness of the refrigerant connection insulation must be appropriate,
according to the location and the installation requirements.
Do not use blue sealant paste on the refrigerant connections: this will void the product warranty.
