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.
!
Please request your sales agent or qualifi 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 specifi 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 specifi 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 specifi ed piping set for R410A. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.
When installing or removing an air conditioner, only specifi 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 modifi cations to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualifi ed air
conditioner technician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and fi re, etc.
!
A circuit breaker or fuse (16A time delay) must be installed. Without a circuit breaker or fuse the danger of electric
shock exists.
The external switch shall be incorporated to completely disconnect from power supply. It should disconnect all poles, and a
contact separation of at least 3mm must be present.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is fl ammable gas. The outdoor unit may catch fi re if
fl ammable gas leaks around it.
Do not install the indoor unit in a machine shop or kitchen where vapor from oil or its mist fl ows to the indoor unit. The oil
will deposit on the heat exchanger, thereby reducing the indoor unit performance and may deform and in the worst case,
break the plastic parts of the indoor unit.
Please ensure smooth fl ow of water when installing the drain hose.
Piping shall be suitable supported with a maximum spacing of 1m between the supports.

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 overfl ow the water container.
Direct Mounting On The Wall
Please use hidden beams in the wall to hold the hanger.
