(supplied) and their nuts (procured locally) onto the sus-
pension bolt in advance.
* Do this in the following order (from the top): nut, insulated washer
2 , washer
without insulation 1 , two nuts.
* Position insulated washer 2 with the insulated surface pointing down, as in the
figure.
2. Lift the unit into place, aligned properly with the suspension bolt. Pass the bracket
between washers 1 and 2 , which are already in place, and secure it. Do the
same in all four places.
* Make sure the suspension bolt extends 3/4 in. (20 mm) or more from the surface
of the ceiling. Otherwise you will not be able to install the cover panel (sold sepa-
rately).
3. If the long opening in the bracket and opening in the ceiling do not align, adjust
them until they do.
4. Check that the four corners are all level, using a spirit level or clear plastic tubing
with water in it.
* Make sure that any slant in the unit after installation is less than 0.5 degrees
(approx. 1/4 in. (6 mm) on the long dimension of the unit).
5. Tighten all the nuts. (Fig. 2-7)

2. Installing the indoor unit
1
Wooden structures (Fig. 2-4)
• Use tie beams (single storied houses) or second floor beams (two story houses) as
reinforcing members.
• Wooden beams for suspending air conditioners must be sturdy and their sides
must be at least 2-3/8 in. (6 cm) long if the beams are separated by not more than
35-7/16 in. (90 cm) and their sides must be at least 3-9/16 in. (9 cm) long if the
beams are separated by as much as 70-7/8 in. (180 cm). The size of the suspen-
sion bolts should be 3/8" (ø10). (The bolts do not come with the unit.)
• Use channel, duct and other parts procured locally to suspend the indoor unit.
2 Ferro-concrete structures
Secure the suspension bolts using the method shown, or use steel or wooden hang-
ers, etc. to install the suspension bolts.
