Figure 44: Latch over Screws on Bottom Cover, Indoor Unit.

To access the indoor unit piping port connections, and to make the 
indoor unit installation procedure easier, it is recommended that the 
bottom cover be removed first.  

1.  On the bottom cover of the indoor unit, unsnap the latches that 

hide the screws. Normally, there are two (2) to three (3) screws 
on the panel, however, models may differ.  

2.  Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the screws from the 

bottom cover of the indoor unit and set aside. 

3.  Remove the cover, taking care not to scratch the main horizontal 

vane. 

4.  Set aside the bottom cover to re-install after all procedures are 

complete.
