Felt tape (4) overlap width should be 1/3 the tape width. Use a bandage stopper at the
end of felt tape (4).
2) Pull out the drain cap at the back right of the indoor unit. (Fig. 1)
• Hold the convex section at the end and pull the drain cap.
3) Pull out the drain hose at the back left of the indoor unit. (Fig. 2)
• Hold the claw marked by the arrows and pull out the drain hose forward.
4) Put the drain cap into the section to which the drain hose is to be attached at the rear
of the indoor unit. (Fig. 3)
• Insert a screwdriver into the hole on the cap and insert the cap fully into the
drain pan.
5) Insert the drain hose fully into the drain pan at the back right of the indoor unit. (Fig. 4)
• Check if the hose is hooked securely to the projection of its inserting part at the
drain pan.
6) Insert the drain hose into wall hole sleeve (C), and attach the upper part of indoor unit
onto the installation plate (1). Then, shift the indoor unit completely to the left to make
placing the piping in the back of the unit easier.
7) Cut out a piece of cardboard from the shipping box, roll it up, hook it onto the back rib,
and use it as a spacer to lift the indoor unit. (Fig. 5)
8) Connect the refrigerant piping with the extension pipe (B).
9) Attach the lower part of the indoor unit into the installation plate (1).

Before performing the following, make sure that wiring is completed, and the conduit
cover is installed. (Refer to 2-3.)
