WARNING
In certain functional environments, such as kitchens, server rooms,
etc., the use of specially designed air-conditioning units is highly
recommended.
Improper installation may result in electrical shock, short circuit,
leaks, fire or other damage to the equipment and personal property.
Before you install the unit, consider strong winds, typhoons and
earthquakes that might aect your unit and locate it accordingly.
Failure to do so could cause the equipment to fail.
The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring
regulations.
The unit must have an all-pole disconnection device with a
minimum 3 mm clearance in all poles, a leakage current that does
not exceed 10 mA, the residual current device (RCD) must have
a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA, and the
units disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in
accordance with wiring regulations.
The units disconnection must be incorporated with an all-pole
disconnection device in the fixed wiring in accordance with wiring
regulations.

Indoor Unit Installation
Fig. 1a
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
Before installing the indoor unit, refer to the label on the product box
to make sure that the model number of the indoor unit matches the
model number of the outdoor unit.
Step 1: Select the installation location
Before installing the indoor unit, choose an appropriate location.
The following are standards that will help you choose an appropriate
location for the unit.
Proper installation locations meet the following standards:
Good air circulation
Convenient drainage
Noise from the unit will not disturb other people
Steady and solid - the location will not vibrate
Strong enough to support the unit’s weight
A location at least one meter from all other electrical devices
(e.g., TV, radio, computer)
DO NOT install unit in the following locations:
Near any source of heat, steam or combustible gas
Near flammable items such as curtains or clothing
Near any obstacle that might block air circulation

Near the doorway
In a location subject to direct sunlight
NOTE ABOUT THE WALL HOLE:
If there is no fixed refrigerant piping:
While choosing a location, be aware that you should leave ample
room for a wall hole (refer to step 3 below) for the signal cable and
refrigerant piping that connect the indoor and outdoor units.
The default position for all piping is the right side of the indoor unit
(facing the unit).
However, the unit can accommodate piping to both the left and right.
Refer to the following diagram to ensure proper distance from walls
and ceiling:

15cm (5,9in) or more
2,3m (90.55in) or more
12cm (4,75in)
or more

Step 2: Attach the mounting plate to the wall
The mounting plate is the device onto which you will mount the indoor
unit.
1. Remove the screw that attaches the mounting plate to the back of
the indoor unit.

2. Place the mounting plate against the wall in a location that meets
the standards in step 1 above (see the Mounting Plate Dimensions for
detailed information on mounting plate sizes).
3. Drill holes to mount the screws in places that:
have studs and can support the unit’s weight
correspond to screw holes in the mounting plate
4. Secure the mounting plate to the wall with the screws provided.
5. Make sure that mounting plate is flat against the wall.
NOTE FOR CONCRETE OR BRICK WALLS:
If the wall is made of brick, concrete or a similar material, drill 5 mm-
diameter (0.2 in-diameter) holes in the wall and insert the sleeve
anchors provided. Then secure the mounting plate to the wall by
tightening the screws directly into the clip anchors.
Step 3: Drill the wall hole to connect the piping
You must drill a hole in the wall for refrigerant piping, the drainage pipe,
and the signal cable that will connect the indoor and outdoor units.
1. Determine the location of the wall hole based on the position of the
mounting plate. Refer to the Mounting Plate Dimensions on the next
page to help you determine the optimal position. The wall hole should
have a minimum 65 mm (2.5 in) diameter, and at a slightly lower angle
to facilitate drainage.
2. Using a 65 mm (2.5 in) or 90 mm (3.54 in) (depending on models)
core drill, drill a hole in the wall. Make sure the hole is drilled at a slight
downward angle, so that the outdoor end of the hole is lower than
the indoor end by about 5 mm to 7 mm (0.2-0.27 in). This will ensure
proper water drainage (see Fig. 2).
3. Place the protective wall cu in the hole. This protects the edges of
the hole and will help seal it when you finish the installation process.

CAUTION
When drilling the wall hole, make sure to avoid wires, plumbing, and
other sensitive components.
