formation.
▶
Select a site and an orientation at which
the air outlet is at least 3 m away from
walkways, plastered surfaces and down-
pipes.
▶
If the installation site is in the immediate vicinity of the
coastline, ensure that the product is protected against
spraying water by an additional protection device. In do-
ing so, the minimum clearances must be complied with.

Observe the permissible height difference between the
outdoor unit and indoor unit.
▶
Keep away from flammable substances or flammable
gases.
