NSTALLATION
Install the outdoor unit to a stable base to avoid the generation of noise and
vibration, especially when installing the unit close to a neighbor.
If you install the outdoor unit in a place exposed to strong winds or at a height,
fix it to an appropriate support (wall or ground).
1
Place the outdoor unit as indicated on the top of the unit to let the
discharged air out properly.
2
Fix the outdoor unit to an appropriate support using anchor bolts.
3
If the outdoor unit is exposed to strong winds, install shield plates around the
outdoor unit so that the fan can operate correctly.
Secure the rubber leg to prevent the generation of noise and vibration.

Fixing the Indoor Unit in Place
After checking for gas leaks in the system, insulate the pipe, hose and cables.
Then place the indoor unit on the installation plate.

To avoid condensation problems, place heat-resistant polyethylene foam
separately around each refrigerant pipe in the lower part of the indoor unit.
2
Wrap the refrigerant pipe and the drain hose in the rear of the indoor unit with
the absorbent pad.
Wind the pipe and hose three times to the end of the indoor unit with the
absorbent pad. (20mm interval)
3
Wind the pipe, assembly cable and drain hose with insulation tape.
4
Place the bundle (the pipe, assembly cable and drain hose) in the lower part of
the indoor unit carefully so it doesn’t project from the rear of the indoor unit.
5
Hook the indoor unit to the installation plate and move the unit to the right
and left until it is securely in place.

Wrap the rest of the pipe with vinyl tape.
