DANGER
Do not ground the unit to water pipes, telephone wires or lightning rods as incomplete grounding could cause a severe shock hazard resulting in severe injury or death, and to gas pipes because a gas leak could result in an explosion which could lead to severe injury or death. Do not install unit in an area where fl ammable materials are present due to risk of explosion result- ing in serious injury or death. Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and displaces oxygen. A massive leak could lead to oxygen deple- tion, especially in basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur leading to serious injury or death. If the refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the area immediately.
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact with fi re such as from a fan, heater, stove or cooking device. Exposure to this gas could result in severe injury or death. After completing the installation work, check that the refrigerant gas does not leak. • Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact with fi re such as from a fan, heater, stove or cooking device. Exposure to this gas could result in severe injury or death. Safely dispose of the packing materials. • Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries. Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children will not play with them. Children playing with plastic bags face the danger of death by suffocation.
WARNING
Ask your dealer or an authorized personnel to carry out installation work. Do not try to install the unit by yourself.
Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric shocks or fi re. Perform installation work in accordance with this installation manual. • Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric shocks or fi re. Be sure to use only the specifi ed accessories and parts for installation work. • Failure to use the specifi ed parts may result in water leakage, electric shocks, fi re or the unit falling. Install the air conditioner on a foundation strong enough to withstand the weight of the unit. • A foundation of insuffi cient strength may result in the equipment falling and causing injuries.
Carry out the specifi ed installation work after taking account of strong winds, typhoons or earth- quakes.
Improper installation work may result in the equipment falling and causing accidents.
Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is provided for this unit and that all electrical work is carried out by an authorized personnel according to local laws and regulations and this installa­tion manual.
An insuffi cient power supply capacity or improper electrical construction may lead to electric shocks or fi re.
Make sure that all wiring is secured, the specifi ed wires are used, and no external forces act on the terminal connections or wires.
Improper connections or installation may result in fi re.
When wiring the power supply and connecting the remote controller wiring and transmission wir- ing, position the wires so that the electric parts box lid can be securely fastened.
Improper positioning of the electric parts box lid may result in electric shocks, fi re or the terminals overheating.
Before touching electrical parts, turn off the unit. Do not touch the switch with wet fi ngers.
Touching a switch with wet fi ngers can cause electric shock. Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker. • Failure to install an earth leakage breaker may result in electric shocks, or fi re. Do not install the air conditioner in the following locations: • (a) where a mineral oil mist or an oil spray or vapor is produced, for example in a kitchen. Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off or result in water leakage.
2English
(b) where corrosive gas, such as sulfurous acid gas, is produced. Corroding copper pipes or soldered parts may result in refrigerant leakage. (c) near machinery emitting electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves may disturb the operation of the control system and result in a malfunction of the equipment. (d) where fl ammable gases may leak, where there are carbon fi ber or ignitable dust suspensions in the air, or where volatile liquids such as thinner or gasoline are handled. Operating the unit in such conditions may result in fi re. Heat exchanger fi ns are sharp enough to cut. • To avoid injury wear gloves to cover the fi ns when working around them. Refrigerant pipes may be very hot or very cold during or immediately after operation. • Touching them could result in burns or frostbite. To avoid injury give the pipes time to return to normal temperature or, if you must touch them, be sure to wear proper gloves.
CAUTION
While following the instructions in this installation manual, insulate piping in order to prevent con- densation.
Improper piping insulation may result in water leakage and property damage. Be very careful about product transportation. • Some products use PP bands for packaging. Do not use any PP bands for a means of transportation. It is dangerous. Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping operation. • Always wait at least fi ve minutes before turning off the power. Otherwise, water leakage and trouble may occur.
Make sure to provide for adequate measures in order to prevent that the outdoor unit be used as a shelter by small animals.

REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK5.
For refrigerant piping of outdoor units, see the installation manual attached to the outdoor unit.〉
Execute heat insulation work completely on both sides of the gas piping and the liquid piping.
Otherwise, a water leakage can result sometimes.〉
(When using a heat pump, the temperature of the gas piping can reach up to approximately 250°F, so use insulation which is suffi ciently resistant.)
Also, in cases where the temperature and humidity of the refrigerant piping sections might exceed
86ºF or RH80 %, reinforce the refrigerant insulation. (13/16” or thicker) Condensation may form on the surface of the insulating material.
Before refrigerant piping work, check which type of refrigerant is used. Proper operation is not
possible if the types of refrigerant are not the same.
DANGER
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact with fi re such as from a fan, heater, stove or • cooking device. Exposure to this gas could result in severe injury or death.
10English
NOTE
Use a pipe cutter and fl are suitable for the type of refrigerant. • To prevent dust, moisture or other foreign matter from infi ltrating the tube, either pinch the end or cover it • with tape. Do not allow anything other than the designated refrigerant to get mixed into the refrigerant circuit, such • as air, etc. If any refrigerant gas leaks while working on the unit, ventilate the room thoroughly right away.
The outdoor unit is charged with refrigerant.
Torque wrench
Use copper alloy seamless pipes. • Be sure to use both a spanner and torque wrench together, as shown • in the drawing, when connecting or disconnecting pipes to/from the unit. (Refer to Fig. 12)

CAUTION
CAUTION TO BE TAKEN WHEN BRAZING REFRIGERANT PIPING • “Do not use fl ux when brazing refrigerant piping. Therefore, use the phosphor copper brazing fi lter metal (BCuP) which does not require fl ux.” (Flux has an extremely negative effect on refrigerant piping systems. For instance, if chlorine based fl ux is used, it will cause pipe corrosion. If the fl ux contains fl uorine, it will damage the refrigerant oil.)
When brazing the refrigerant piping, only begin brazing after having carried out nitrogen substitution • (NOTE 1) or while inserting nitrogen into the refrigerant piping (NOTE 2). Once this is done, connect the indoor unit with a fl ared or a fl anged connection.
DANGER
Use of oxygen may cause an explosion resulting in serious injury or death. Only use nitrogen gas.
NOTE
Refer to the “Manual for Multi Installation for Buildings” for directions on how to carry out nitrogen 1. substitution. (Inquire with your dealer.) Nitrogen should be set to 2.9 psi with a pressure-reducing valve if brazing while inserting nitrogen into 2. the piping. (Refer to Fig. 14)

WARNING
Never connect power supply wiring to the terminal block for remote controller wiring as this could dam- • age the entire system. Use only specifi ed wire and connect wires to the terminal tightly. Be careful wires do not place external • stress on terminals. Keep wires in neat order so as not to obstruct other equipment. Make sure that the electric box lid fi ts tightly. Incomplete connections could result in overheating and, in worse case, result in electric shock or fi re. To avoid a short circuit in the electric parts box, be sure to apply sealing material or putty (not included) • to the wiring hole to prevent the infi ltration of water as well as insects or other small creatures. Otherwise a short-circuit may occur inside the electric parts box.
CAUTION
When clamping the wirings, be sure no tension is applied to the wire connections by using the included • clamp. Also, when wiring, make sure the lid on the electric parts box fi ts snugly by arranging the wir­ings neatly and attaching the service lid fi rmly. When attaching the service lid, make sure no wirings get caught in the edges. Pass wiring through holes to prevent damage to them. Make sure the remote controller wiring and transmission wiring between the units, and other electrical • wiring do not pass through the same locations outside the unit, separating them by at least 5”, otherwise electrical noise (external static) could cause incorrect operation or breakage. Use only specifi ed wire and tightly connect wires to terminals. Be careful wires do not place external stress on terminals. Keep wiring in neat order and so as not to obstruct other equipment such as popping open the service cover. Make sure the cover closes tight. Incomplete connections could result in over­heating, and in worse case, electric shock or fi re.

[ PRECAUTIONS ]
Use round crimp-style terminals for connecting wires to the power supply terminal block.1. (Refer to Fig. 23)
If unavailable, observe the following points when wiring.
Do not connect wires of different gauge to the same power supply terminal. • (Looseness in the connection may cause overheating.) Use the specifi ed electric wire. Connect the wire securely to the terminal. Lock the wire down without • applying excessive force to the terminal. (Tightening torque: 0.97ft.lbf ±10 %)
