Chapter 2 Placing Your AirStation

Mounting to a Ceiling or Wall

The AirStation can be mounted to a ceiling or wall. Pay careful attention to the following points
when mounting.
Notes: · Mount in a location with an ambient temperature range from 0 °C to 45 °C, humidity from 10 % to 90 %, and
no condensation.
· Do not bring the AirStation into close contact with other devices, other walls, or other objects.
· Do not mount on wobbly surfaces, slanted surfaces, or other unstable locations.
· Do not mount in locations that are exposed to large amounts of direct sunlight, heat sources, or
electromagnetic waves.
· Mount in a firm and stable position. If the AirStation is not properly mounted, it can fall and cause an
accident.
Use the supplied accessories below to mount the AirStation to the ceiling or wall.
Ceiling-mounting wooden screws (large)
Wall-mounting wooden screws (medium)
Note: The ceiling where the AirStation is secured must be capable of supporting a weight of at least 1.5 kg. If the
ceiling does not have sufficient strength, be sure to reinforce the ceiling before securing the AirStation to it. If
the ceiling is not reinforced, the AirStation can fall and cause an injury.
Ceiling reinforcement
If the ceiling is made from plaster board or other material that does not provide enough strength, be sure to
reinforce the ceiling before mounting the AirStation. The gure above shows an example when using the supplied
wooden screws (large) for attaching the wall-mounting xture. The thickness and size of the reinforcement piece
varies depending on the screw size that you use. For details, please consult with a specialized contractor with
building experience or the dealer where you made the purchase.
If the screws cannot be properly secured to the wall, such as when the wall
material is thin, open holes in the wall beforehand, embed the wall-mounting
anchor into the wall, and then secure with the screws.
