Indoor Unit 

Installation

5.

Facing the back of the unit, remove the plastic 

panel on the bottom left-hand side.

6.  Feed the signal wire through this slot, from 

the back of the unit to the front.

7.  Facing the front of the unit, match the wire 

colors with the labels on the terminal block, 

connect the u-lug and and firmly screw each 

wire to its corresponding terminal.

 CAUTION

DO NOT MIX UP LIVE AND NULL WIRES

This is dangerous, and can cause the air 

conditioning unit to malfunction.

8. 

After checking to make sure every connection

is secure, use the cable clamp to fasten the 

signal cable to the unit. Screw the cable clamp 

down tightly.

9. 

Replace the wire cover on the front of the 

unit, and the plastic panel on the back.

 NOTE ABOUT WIRING

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 7: Wrap piping and cables

Before passing the piping, drain hose, and the 

signal cable through the wall hole, you must 

bundle them together to save space, protect 

them, and insulate them.

1. 

Bundle the drain hose, refrigerant pipes, and 

signal cable according to 

Fig. 3.10.

 

Indoor Unit

Space behind unit

Refrigerant piping

Drain hose

Signal wire

Insulation tape

DRAIN HOSE MUST BE ON BOTTOM

Make sure that the drain hose is at the bottom 

of the bundle. Putting the drain hose at the  

top of the bundle can cause the drain pan 

to overflow, which can lead to fire or water 

damage.

DO NOT INTERTWINE SIGNAL CABLE WITH 

OTHER WIRES

While bundling these items together, do not 

intertwine or cross the signal cable with any 

other wiring.

2.

 

Using adhesive vinyl tape, attach the drain 

hose to the underside of the refrigerant pipes.

3.

  Using insulation tape, wrap the signal wire, 

refrigerant pipes, and drain hose tightly 

together. Double-check that all items are 

bundled in accordance with 

Fig. 3.10.

 

DO NOT WRAP ENDS OF PIPING

When wrapping the bundle, keep the ends 

of the piping unwrapped. You need to access 

them to test for leaks at the end of the 

installation process (refer to 

Electrical Checks 

 

and Leak Checks 

section of this manual).

Step 8: Mount indoor unit
If you installed  new connective piping to the 

outdoor unit,

 do the following:

1.

  If you have already passed the refrigerant 

piping through the hole in the wall, proceed 

to Step 4.

2.

 

Otherwise, double-check that the ends of the 

refrigerant pipes are sealed to prevent dirt or 

foreign materials from entering the pipes.

3.

 

Slowly pass the wrapped bundle of refrigerant 

pipes, drain hose, and signal wire through the 

hole in the wall.

4.

 

Hook the top of the indoor unit on the upper 

hook of the mounting plate.

5.

 

Check that unit is hooked firmly on mounting 

by applying slight pressure to the left and 

right-hand sides of the unit. The unit should 

not jiggle or shift.

6.

  Using even pressure, push down on the 

bottom half of the unit. Keep pushing down 

until the unit snaps onto the hooks along the 

bottom of the mounting plate.

7.

 

Again, check that the unit is firmly mounted 

by applying slight pressure to the left and the 

right-hand sides of the unit.
