Tools Needed For Installation Work

SAFETY PRECAUTION

  Read the safety precautions carefully before operating the unit.

  The contents of this section are vital to ensure safety. Please pay special attention to the following sign.

 

WARNING ........ Incorrect methods of installation may cause death or serious injury.

 

CAUTION ......... Improper installation may result in serious consequence.

  Be sure that the unit operates in proper condition after installation. Explain to customer the proper way of 

operating the unit as described in the user’s guide.

WARNING

!

CAUTION

!

  Please request your sales agent or quali

fi

 ed technician to install your unit. Water leakage, short circuit or 

fi

 re may occur if 

you do the installation work yourself.

  Please observe the instructions stated in the installation manual during the process of installation. Improper installation may 

cause water leakage, electric shock and 

fi

 re.

  Make sure that the units are mounted at locations which are able to provide full support to the weight of the units. If not, 

the units may collapse and impose danger.

  Observe the rules and regulations of the electrical installation and the methods described in the installation manual when 

dealing with the electrical work. Use power cables approved by the authorities of your country.

  Be sure to use the speci

fi

 ed wire for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. Please ensure that the connections are tight 

after the conductors of the wire are inserted into the terminals. Improper insertion and loose contact may cause over-heating 
and 

fi

 re.

  Please use the speci

fi

 ed components for installation work. Otherwise, the units may collapse or water leakage, electric shock 

and 

fi

 re may occur.

  Be sure to use the speci

fi

 ed piping set for R-410A. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.

  When installing or removing an air conditioner, only speci

fi

 ed refrigerant (R410A) shall be allowed, do not allow air or moisture 

to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high so that a 
rupture may be caused.

  Be sure to ventilate fully if a refrigerant gas leak while at work. If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with 

fi

 re, a poisonous 

gas may occur.

  After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage. If the refrigerant gas 

leaks into the room, coming into contact with 

fi

 re in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.

 Unauthorized modi

fi

 cations to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a quali

fi

 ed  air 

conditioner technician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and 

fi

 re,  etc.

FOR SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY

THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE 

 (Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation).

WARNING

!

 The unit should be mounted at stable, non-vibratory location 

which can provide full support to the unit.

WARNING

!

  The Outdoor unit must be mounted at a location which can support 

heavy weight. Otherwise, noise and vibration will increase.

CAUTION

!

 No nearby heat source and no obstruction near the air outlet is 

allowed.

 The clearance distances from top, right and left are speci

fi

 ed  in 

fi

 gure  below.

 The location must be convenient for water drainage and pipe 

connection with the Outdoor unit.

 To avoid interference from noise please place the unit and its 

remote controller at least 1m from the radio, television and inverter 
type 

fl

 uorescent  lamp.

  To avoid any error in signal transmission from the remote controller, 

please put the controller far away from high-frequency machines 
and high-power wireless systems.

 The installation height of indoor unit must be 2.3m or more.

CAUTION

!

 Do not expose the unit under direct sunshine or rain. Besides, 

ventilation must be good and clear of obstruction.

 The air blown out of the unit should not point directly to animals 

or plants.

 The clearances of the unit from top, left, right and front are 

speci

fi

 ed  in 

fi

 gure below. At least 3 of the above sides must be 

open air.

 Be sure that the hot air blown out of the unit and noise do not 

disturb the neighbourhood.

  Do not install at a location where there is 

fl

 ammable gas, steam, 

oil and smoke.

 The location must be convenient for water drainage.

  Place the Outdoor unit and its connecting cord at least 1m away 

from the antenna or signal line of television, radio or telephone. 
This is to avoid noise interference.

 Do not install outdoor unit facing strong wind direction. It may 

damage the fan motor.

The difference in height 
between the indoor and 
outdoor unit should be 
kept max 10m.

 The connecting pipe, 

no matter big or small, 
should all be insulated 
with insulation pipe and

drain hose.

Please use insulated drain 
hose for the indoor piping 
(commercial product).

The indoor piping should 
be insulated with the 
enclosed insulation pipe. (If 
the insulator is insuf

 cient, 

please use commersial 
products).

Be sure to 
completely 
seal any 
gap with 
putty.

Installation of Hanger, Wall Penetration and Installation of Protection Pipe

CAUTION

!

 The draining of the water container inside the indoor unit can be done from the 

left. Therefore the hanger must be 

fi

 xed horizontally or slightly tilted towards the 

side of drain hose. Otherwise, condensed water may over

fl

 ow the water container.

Direct Mounting On The Wall

 Please use hidden beams in the wall to hold the hanger.

Wall Penetration and Installation of Protection Pipe

 Drill a ø 65mm hole on 

wall which is slightly tilted 
towards the outdoor side. 
Drill the wall at a small 
angle.

 Cut the protection pipe 

according to the wall 
thickness.

 Empty gap in the sleeve 

of protection pipe should 
be completely sealed with 
putty to avoid dripping of 
rain water into the room.

HORIZONTAL PIPING

  Preparation

Change of Drain Hose and Installation Procedures.

  Exchange the location of drain hose and drain cap during horizontal piping as shown in 

fi

 gure below. Be sure to plug in the drain hose until the insulating material folds upon itself.

 Please use pliers to pull out the drain cap.

  (This is an easier way to remove the drain cap).

INSTALLATION OF REFRIGERATING PIPES AFTER CONNECTION

 The refrigerating pipes should be adjusted to 

fi

 t 

into the hole on the wall and then ready for further 
connection.

 The terminals of 2 connected pipes must be covered 

with insulator used for terminal connection. Then the 
pipes are wrapped with insulation pipe.

  Connect the connecting cord after removing electrical 

cover. (Refer to “CONNECTION OF POWER CORD”)

 After adjustment, 

fi

 t the connecting cord and pipes 

into the space available under the indoor unit. Use 
holder to hold them tight.

!

CAUTION

 The rubber strap used for 

fi

 xing the insulator should 

not be tied with great force. 
Otherwise, this will damage 
heat insulation and causes 
water condensation.

● 

Holder can be attached at the either of 2 places. 
Please select the easier position.

CAUTION

 Please 

fi

 x in the plastic core 

after 

fl

 aring to avoid plastic 

chips entering the pipes.

CAUTION

!

You are free to choose the side (left or right) for the installation of drain 
hose. Please ensure the smooth 

fl

 ow of condensed water of the Indoor 

unit during installation. (Carelessness may result in water leakage.)

!

CAUTION

Be sure that the 
drain hose is not 
loosely connected 
or bend.

Be sure that the wire is not 
in contact with any metal 
in the wall. Please use 
the protection pipe as wire 
passing through the hollow 
part of the wall so as to 
prevent the possibility of 
damaged by mouse.
Unless it seals completely, 
any air with high humidity 
flows from outdoor and 
any dew may drop.

!

WARNING

 The refrigerating pipes and connecting cord 

transform and are attached.

 The end of the refrigerating pipes are at locations 

marked with “
