The air conditioner uses a drain pump to drain water.
Use the following procedure to test the drain pump operation:
• Connect the main drain pipe to the exterior
an d le av e it pr ov is io na lly un til th e t es t
comes to an end.
• F ee d w ate r to th e fl ex ib le dra in ho se an d
check the piping for leakage.
• Be sure to check the drain pump for normal
operating and noise when electrical wiring
is complete.
• W he n t he te st is co mp le te , c on ne ct th e
flexible drain hose to the drain port on the
indoor unit.

• Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to 1/100): be sure not to
provide up-and-down slope to prevent reversal flow.
• During drain piping connection, be careful not to exert extra force
on the drain port on the indoor unit.
• The outside diameter of the drain connection on the indoor unit is
32mm.
• Be sure to install heat insulation on the drain piping.

CA UTION:
After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Ne ver fail to have an individual po wer specialized f or the air conditioner. As f or the method of
wiring, be guided b y the circuit dia gram posted on the inside of control bo x cover .
2) Pro vide a circuit breaker s witch between po wer source and the unit.
3) The scre ws which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liab le to come loose
from vibrations to whic h the unit is subjected during the course of transpor tation. Chec k them
and make sure that they are all tightl y fastened. (If the y are loose, it could give rise to b urn-out
of the wires.)
4) Specification of power sour ce
5) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6) Be sure that the star ting volta ge is maintained at more than 90 per cent of the rated volta ge

CA UTION : The supplied fle xible drain
hose should not be curved, neither
screwed. The cur ved or screwed hose
may cause a leaka ge of water .
marked on the name plate.
7) Confirm that the cab le thickness is as specified in the po wer sources specification.
(Par ticularly note the relation between cab le length and thickness.)
8) Never fail to equip a leaka ge breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The f ollowing tr oubles w ould be caused by v oltag e drop-do wn.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance by the nor-
mal function of an overload protection device.
• Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.
