DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION
Pump down – Refrigerant leakage. If you want to pump
down the system, and there is a leak in the refrigerant circuit:
▪ Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function,
with which you can collect all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit. Possible consequence: Self-combustion and explosion of the compressor because of air going into the operating compressor.
▪ Use a separate recovery system so that the unit's
compressor does NOT have to operate.
WARNING
ALWAYS recover the refrigerant. Do NOT release them directly into the environment. Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the installation.
NOTICE
After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas leak. Use nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.
NOTICE
▪ To avoid compressor breakdown, do NOT charge more
than the specified amount of refrigerant.
▪ When the refrigerant system is to be opened,
refrigerant MUST be treated according to the applicable legislation.

▪ Make sure the field wiring complies with the applicable
legislation.
▪ All field wiring MUST be performed in accordance with
the wiring diagram supplied with the product.
▪ NEVER squeeze bundled cables and make sure they
do NOT come in contact with the piping and sharp edges. Make sure no external pressure is applied to the terminal connections.
▪ Make sure to install earth wiring. Do NOT earth the unit
to a utility pipe, surge absorber, or telephone earth. Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock.
▪ Make sure to use a dedicated power circuit. NEVER
use a power supply shared by another appliance.
▪ Make sure to install the required fuses or circuit
breakers.
▪ Make sure to install an earth leakage protector. Failure
to do so may cause electric shock or fire.
▪ When installing the earth leakage protector, make sure
it is compatible with the inverter (resistant to high frequency electric noise) to avoid unnecessary opening of the earth leakage protector.
CAUTION
When connecting the power supply, the earth connection must be made before the current-carrying connections are established. When disconnecting the power supply, the current-carrying connections must be separated before the earth connection is. The length of the conductors between the power supply stress relief and the terminal block itself must be as such that the current-carrying wires are tautened before the earth wire is in case the power supply is pulled loose from the stress relief.
NOTICE
Precautions when laying power wiring:

1.2.6 Electrical

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
▪ Turn OFF all power supply before removing the
switch box cover, connecting electrical wiring or touching electrical parts.
▪ Disconnect the power supply for more than 1minute,
and measure the voltage at the terminals of main circuit capacitors or electrical components before servicing. The voltage MUST be less than 50 V DC before you can touch electrical components. For the location of the terminals, see the wiring diagram.
▪ Do NOT touch electrical components with wet hands.
▪ Do NOT leave the unit unattended when the service
cover is removed.
WARNING
If NOT factory installed, a main switch or other means for disconnection, having a contact separation in all poles providing full disconnection under overvoltage category III condition, MUST be installed in the fixed wiring.
▪ Do NOT connect wiring of different thicknesses to the
power terminal block (slack in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat).
▪ When connecting wiring which is the same thickness,
do as shown in the figure above.
▪ For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect
firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure being exerted on the terminal board.
▪ Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the
terminal screws. A screwdriver with a small head will damage the head and make proper tightening impossible.
▪ Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.
Install power cables at least 1 metre away from televisions or radios to prevent interference. Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 1metre may not be sufficient.

▪ Choose a location where the hot/cold air discharged from the unit
or the operation noise, will NOT disturb anyone.
WARNING
Do NOT install the air conditioner at any place where flammable gas may leak out. If the gas leaks out and stays around the air conditioner, a fire may break out.
▪ Install units, power cables and communication wiring at least 3m
away from televisions or radios to prevent interference. Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 3m may not be sufficient.
▪ Objects placed under the unit may be damaged by water from the
drain.
WARNING
If appliances contain R32 refrigerant, then the floor area of the room in which the appliances are installed, operated and stored must be larger than the minimum floor area. This applies to:
▪ Indoor units without refrigerant leakage sensor; in
case of indoor units with refrigerant leakage sensor, consult the installation manual
▪ Outdoor units installed or stored indoors (example:
winter garden, garage, machinery room)
▪ Field piping in unventilated spaces
WARNING
The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources (example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
NOTICE
▪ Do NOT stack the units on each other.
▪ Do NOT hang the unit on a ceiling.
Strong winds (≥18 km/h) blowing against the outdoor unit’s air outlet causes short circuit (suction of discharge air). This may result in:
▪ deterioration of the operational capacity;
▪ frequent frost acceleration in heating operation;
▪ disruption of operation due to decrease of low pressure or
increase of high pressure;
▪ a broken fan (if a strong wind blows continuously on the fan, it
may start rotating very fast, until it breaks).
It is recommended to install a baffle plate when the air outlet is exposed to wind.
It is recommended to install the outdoor unit with the air inlet facing the wall and NOT directly exposed to the wind.

5.2.1 Installation site requirements of the outdoor unit

INFORMATION
Also read the following requirements:
▪ General installation site requirements. See the
"General safety precautions" chapter.
▪ Refrigerant piping requirements (length, height
difference). See further in this "Preparation" chapter.
Mind the following spacing guidelines:
a Air outlet b Air inlet
Allow 300mm of work space below the ceiling surface and 250mm for piping and electrical servicing.
a Baffle plate b Prevailing wind direction c Air outlet
Do NOT install the unit in the following places:
▪ Sound sensitive areas (e.g. near a bedroom), so that the
operation noise will cause no trouble. Note: If the sound is measured under actual installation conditions, the measured value might be higher than the sound pressure level mentioned in Sound spectrum in the data book due to environmental noise and sound reflections.
INFORMATION
The sound pressure level is less than 70dBA.
▪ In places where a mineral oil mist, spray or vapour may be
present in the atmosphere. Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off or cause water leakage.
It is NOT recommended to install the unit in the following places because it may shorten the life of the unit:
▪ Where the voltage fluctuates a lot
▪ In vehicles or vessels
▪ Where acidic or alkaline vapour is present
Seaside installation. Make sure the outdoor unit is NOT directly exposed to sea winds. This is to prevent corrosion caused by high levels of salt in the air, which might shorten the life of the unit.

The outdoor unit is designed for outdoor installation only, and for ambient temperatures within the following ranges:
Cooling mode Heating mode
–10~46°C DB –15~24°C DB

5.2.2 Additional installation site requirements of the outdoor unit in cold climates

Protect the outdoor unit against direct snowfall and take care that the outdoor unit is NEVER snowed up.
It is recommended to provide at least 150mm of free space below the unit (300mm for heavy snowfall areas). Additionally, make sure the unit is positioned at least 100mm above the maximum expected level of snow. If necessary, construct a pedestal. See "6.3Mounting
the outdoor unit"[412] for more details.
In heavy snowfall areas it is very important to select an installation site where the snow will NOT affect the unit. If lateral snowfall is possible, make sure that the heat exchanger coil is NOT affected by the snow. If necessary, install a snow cover or shed and a pedestal.

5.2.3 Refrigerant piping length and height difference

INFORMATION
For the Hybrid for Multi application and the DHW generator for Multi, see the indoor unit installation manual for the maximum allowable refrigerant piping length and height difference.
The shorter the refrigerant piping, the better the performance of the system.
The piping length and height differences must comply with the following requirements.
Model Minimum required space
3MXM40, 3MXM52, 3AMXM52, 3MXF52, 3AMXF52
3MXM68, 3MXF68 5.5m
4MXM68 6.5m
4MXM80 9.8m
5MXM90 10.4m
Shortest allowable length per room is 3m.
