CAUTION
Install the outdoor unit in a location that is away from exhaust or the vent ports that
discharge vapor, soot, dust, or debris.
Install the indoor unit, outdoor unit, power supply cable, transmission cable, and remote
control cable at least 1 m away from a television or radio receivers. The purpose of this
is to prevent TV reception interference or radio noise. (Even if they are installed more
than 1 m apart, you could still receive noise under some signal conditions.)

If children under 10 years old may approach the unit, take preventive measures so that
they cannot reach the unit.
Keep the length of the piping of the indoor and outdoor units within the allowable range.
For maintenance purposes, do not bury the piping.
3.2. Drain installation
CAUTION
Perform drain work in accordance with this Manual, and ensure that the drain water is
properly drained. If the drain work is not carried out correctly, water may drip down from
the unit, wetting the furniture.
When the outdoor temperature is 0 °C or less, do not use the accessory drain pipe
and drain cap. If the drain pipe and drain cap are used, the drain water in the pipe may
freeze in extremely cold weather. (Reverse cycle model only)
As the drain water
fl
ows out of the outdoor unit during heating operation, install the
•
drain pipe and connect it to a commercial 16 mm hose. (Reverse cycle model only)
When installing the drain pipe, plug all the holes other than the drain pipe mounting
•
hole in the bottom of the outdoor unit with putty so there is no water leakage. (Reverse
cycle model only)

3.3. Installation dimensions
CAUTION
The installation space shown in the following examples is based on an ambient
temperature under cooling operation of 35 °C (DB) at the air intake of the outdoor unit.
Provide more space around the air intake than shown in the examples if the ambient
temperature exceeds 35 °C (DB) or if the thermal load of all of the outdoor units exceeds
the capacity.
Consider the transportation route, installation space, maintenance space, and access,
and install the unit in a location with suf
fi
cient space for the refrigerant piping.
CAUTION
Observe the installation space speci
fi
cations that are shown in the
fi
gures.
Keep the same space at rear air intake.
Provide the same space for the air intake at the rear of the outdoor unit.
If the installation is not performed according to the speci
fi
cations, it could cause a short
circuit and result in a lack of operating performance. As a result, the outdoor unit might
easily be stopped by high-pressure protection.

installed.
When routing the piping from the side of an outdoor unit, provide space for the piping.

No more than 3 units must be installed side by side. When 3 units or more are
•
arranged in a line, provide the space as shown in the following example when an
obstruction is present also in the upward area.
