1.  SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

This installation manual describes how to install the outdoor unit only. To install the indoor 

unit, refer to the installation manual included with the indoor unit.

IMPORTANT!

Please Read Before Starting

This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating standards.

As the installer or service person, it is an important part of your job to install or service the 

system so it operates safely and efficiently.

For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must:

• Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.

• Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.

• Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.

• Pay close attention to all warning, and caution notices given in this manual.

WARNING:

This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in 

severe personal injury or death.

CAUTION:

This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in 

personal injury and the potential for product or property damage.

• Hazard alerting symbols

If Necessary, Get Help

These instructions are all you need for most installation sites and maintenance conditions. 

If you require help for a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your certified 

dealer for additional instructions.

In Case of Improper Installation

The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improper installation or maintenance 

service, including failure to follow the instructions in this document.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS                                                                                                    

When Wiring                                                                                                                            
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY 

A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS 

SYSTEM.

• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected 

and checked.

• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wiring 

diagram and these instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate 

grounding can cause accidental injury or death.

• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.

• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and 

a possible fire hazard.

When Transporting                                                                                                                

Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to 

help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin 

aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.

When Installing...                                                                                                                  

...In a Ceiling or Wall

Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. It may be necessary 

to construct a strong wood or metal frame to provide added support.

...In a Room

Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent “sweating” that can cause 

dripping and water damage to walls and floors.

...In Moist or Uneven Locations

Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a solid, level foundation for the 

outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnormal vibration.

...In an Area with High Winds

Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame. Provide a suitable air 

baffle.

...In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)

Install the outdoor unit on a raised support that is higher than drifting snow. Provide snow 

vents.

When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing                                                                               

• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.

• Use the flare method for connecting tubing.

• Apply refrigeration compressor oil (or equivalent) used for the outdoor unit to the matching 

surfaces of the flare and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten the nut with a 

torque wrench for a leak-free connection.

• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.

NOTE:

Depending on the system type, liquid and gas lines may be either narrow or wide. 

Therefore, to avoid confusion the refrigerant tubing for your particular model is specified 

as either “small” or “large” rather than as “liquid” or “gas”.

When Servicing                                                                                                                   

•Turn the power OFF at the main circuit breaker panel before opening the unit to check or 

repair electrical parts and wiring.

• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.

• Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of 

wiring have been left inside the unit being serviced.

• After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating manual.

• 

Be sure to read this Manual thoroughly before installation.

• 

The warnings and precautions indicated in this Manual contain important information 

pertaining to your safety. Be sure to observe them.

•  Hand this Manual, together with the Operating Manual, to the customer. Request the 

customer to keep them on hand for future use, such as for relocating or repairing the 

unit.

•  After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating 

manual.

 

WARNING

Never touch electrical components immediately after the power supply has been 

turned off. Electrical shock may occur. After turning off the power, always wait 5 

minutes or more before touching electrical components.

During installation, make sure that the refrigerant pipe is attached firmly before you 

run the compressor. Do not operate the compressor under the condition of refrigerant 

piping not attached properly with 2-way or 3-way valve open. This may cause 

abnormal pressure in the refrigeration cycle that leads to breakage and even injury.
Do not remove the connection pipe while the compressor is in operation with 2-way or 

3-way valve open. This may cause abnormal pressure in the refrigeration cycle that 

leads to breakage and even injury.
When installing and relocating the air conditioner, do not mix gases other than the 

specified refrigerant (R410A) to enter the refrigerant cycle. If air or other gas enters 

the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to an abnormally high value

and cause breakage, injury, etc.
When installing this system in high humidity locations, install using ground fault 

equipment breakers (often referred to in other countries as an ELCB [earth leakage 

current breaker]) to reduce the risk of leaking current which may result in electric 

shock or potential fire.
