In slinging a unit, use two canvas belts with plates, cloth pads or other protections applied to the unit to prevent damage.
Please note
a) Please do not fail to put belts through the rectangular holes of a unit
'
s anchoring legs.
b) Apply cloth pads between a canvas belt and a unit to prevent damage.
When a unit is hoisted with slings for haulage, please take into consideration the offset of its gravity center position.
If not properly balanced, the unit can be thrown off-balance and fall.
Please note
a) A four-sided enclosure cannot be used. Leave a space of at least 1m above the unit.
b) If there is a danger of a short-circuit, then install a wind direction variable adapter.
d) In areas where there is snowfall, install the unit in a frame or under a snow hood to prevent snow from accumulating on it.
(Inhibition of collective drain discharge in a snowy country)
e) Do not install the equipment in areas where there is a danger for potential explosive atmosphere.
* Please ask your distributor about optional parts such as wind vane adapters, snow guard hoods, etc.

Read these “Precautions for safty” carefully before starting installation work and do it in the proper way.
●
Safety instructions listed here are grouped into Warnings and Cautions. If a non-compliant installation method is likely to result in a serious consequence such as death
or major injury, the instruction is grouped into Warnings to emphasize its importance. However, a failure to observe a safety instruction listed under Cautions can also
result in a serious consequence depending on the circumstances. Please observe all these instructions, because they include important points concerning safety.
●
The meanings of “Marks” used here are as shown on the right:
●
When you have completed installation work, perform a test run and make sure that the installation is working properly. Then, explain the customer how to operate and how to take
care of the air-conditioner according to the user’s manual. Please ask the customer to keep this installation manual together with the user’s manual.

Do not use any refrigerant other than R410A. R410A will rise to pressure about 1.6 times higher than that of a conventional
refrigerant.
A cylinder containing R410A has a pink indication mark on the top.

A unit designed for R410A has adopted a different size indoor unit operation valve charge port and a different size check joint
you are required to arrange dedicated R410A tools listed in the table on the right before installing or servicing this unit.
●
Do not use a charge cylinder. The use of a charge cylinder will cause the refrigerant composition to change, which results in
performance degradation.
●
In charging refrigerant, always take it out from a cylinder in the liquid phase.
●
All indoor units must be models designed exclusively for R410A. Please check connectable indoor unit models in a catalog, etc. (A
wrong indoor unit, if connected into the system, will impair proper system operation)
For a normal installation, leave a 10

Be sure to use the cables conformed to safety standard and cable ampacity for power distribution work.
●
Use the prescribed cables for electrical connection, tighten the cables securely in terminal block and relieve the cables
correctly to prevent overloading the terminal blocks.
●
Arrange the wiring in the control box so that it cannot be pushed up further into the box. Install the service panel correctly.
●
In connecting the power cable, make sure that no anomalies such as dust deposits, socket clogging or wobble are found and
insert the plug securely.
●
Be sure not to reuse existing refrigerant pipes
Conventional refrigerant oil or chlorine contained in the conventional refrigerant which is remaining in the existing refrigerant
pipes can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil of new unit. And 1.6 times higher pressure of R410A refrigerant than
conventional one can cause burst of existing pipe, personal injury or serious accident.
