Heat insulator wrapping cross section A-A
Make the slit part of heat insulator to upward.
▼
Insulating the pipes
Insulate the indoor unit completely so there are no
gaps using the heat insulator provided.
CAUTION
Securely apply insulation all the way up to the pipe
connecting section of the indoor unit so that there is no
exposed area. (the pipe exposed to the outside causes
water leak.)
When wrapping the heat insulator around pipes, make
sure the slit aperture toward the ceiling surface.
CAUTION
• Bind the auxiliary pipes (two) and system
interconnection wire and control wiring with facing
tape tightly. In case of leftward piping and rear
leftward piping, bind the auxiliary pipes (two) only with
facing tape.
• Carefully arrange pipes so that any pipe does not stick
out of the rear plate of the indoor unit.
• Carefully connect the auxiliary pipes and connecting
pipes to one another and cut off the insulating tape
wound on the connecting pipe to avoid double-taping
at the joint, moreover, seal the joint with the vinyl tape,
etc.
• Since dew results in a machine trouble, make sure to
insulate both the connecting pipes.
(Use polyethylene foam as insulating material.)
• When bending a pipe, carefully do it, not to crush it.

Indoor unit fixing
1
Pass the pipe through the hole in the wall,
and hook the indoor unit on the installation
plate at the upper hooks.
2
Swing the indoor unit to right and left to
confirm that it is firmly hooked up on the
installation plate.
3
While pressing the indoor unit onto the wall,
hook it at the lower part on the installation
plate. Pull the indoor unit toward you to
confirm that it is firmly hooked up on the
installation plate.
For detaching the indoor unit from the installation
plate, pull the indoor unit toward you while pushing
its bottom up at the specified parts.
REQUIREMENT
The lower part of indoor unit may float, due to the
condition of piping and you cannot fix it to the installation
plate. In that case, use the screws provided to fix the unit
and the installation plate.
Especially when the pipes are pulled out from the
left side, the unit must be screwed to the installation
plate.

Drainage
1
Run the drain hose sloped downwards.
NOTE
Hole should be made at a slight downward slant on the
outdoor side.
2
Put water in the drain pan and make sure
that the water is drained out of doors.
3
When connecting extension drain hose,
insulate the connecting part of extension
drain hose with shield pipe.
CAUTION
Arrange the drain pipe for proper drainage from the unit.
Improper drainage can result in dew-dropping.
This air conditioner has the structure designed to drain
water collected from dew, which forms on the back of
the indoor unit, to the drain pan.
Therefore, do not store the power cord and other parts
at a height above the drain guide.

Refrigerant piping
CAUTION
When the refrigerant pipe is long, provide support
brackets at intervals of 2.5 m to 3 m to clamp the
refrigerant pipe. Otherwise, abnormal sound may be
generated.
Use the flare nut attached with the indoor unit or R410A
flare nut.
Permissible piping length and
height difference
They vary depending on the outdoor unit. For details,
refer to the Installation Manual attached to the outdoor
unit.

Connecting refrigerant piping
Flaring
1
Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.
Remove burrs completely. (remaining burrs
may cause gas leakage.)
2
Insert a flare nut into the pipe, and flare the
pipe.
Use the flare nut provided with the unit or
the one used for the R410A refrigerant. The
flaring dimensions for R410A are different
from the ones used for the conventional R22
refrigerant. A new flare tool manufactured
for use with the R410A refrigerant is
recommended, but the conventional tool
can still be used if the projection margin of
the copper pipe is adjusted to be as shown
in the following table.
Do not put the
drain hose end
in the drainage
ditch.
Do not put the
drain hose end
into water.
Do not rise the drain hose.
Do not form the drain hose
into a wavy shape.
