Be sure to perform grounding.

Attach a ground wire to either the

outdoor unit or indoor unit.

If there is a grounding terminal

inside the room, use the grounding

screw inside the indoor unit.

Be sure to apply the provided labels to both

ends of the inter-unit cables to prevent mis-

wiring. The units will not function if the wiring

connections are incorrect.

5-5.  Wiring Instructions for the Outdoor Unit

G

Be sure to correctly align inter-unit cables A, B, C and D.

G

Use a dedicated A/C circuit for power.

G

To make connections to the outdoor unit, remove the

inspection panel and tubing panel.

G

Do not bring the inter-unit cables or power cable into

contact with tubing or service valves.

G

Use outdoor unit cable fasteners and fasten the inter-

unit cables at the location where the cables are double-

sheathed.

G

Arrange the wiring so that the inter-unit cables are con-

tained in the inspection panel and tubing panel, as

shown in Fig. 31.
