DANGER
• Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen. A massive leak could lead to oxygen depletion, 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 a toxic gas if it comes in contact with fire such as from a fan heater, stove or cooking device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or death.
• After completing the installation work, check that the refrigerant gas does not leak.
Refrigerant gas may produce a toxic gas if it comes in contact with fire such as from a fan heater, stove or cooking device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or death.
• Do not ground units to water pipes, telephone wires or lightning rods because 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.
• 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.
• Do not install unit in an area where flammable materials are present due to risk of explosion resulting in serious injury or death.
• Do not ground units to telephone wires or lightning rods because lightning strikes 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.
WARNING
• Installation should be left to the authorized dealer or another trained professional.
Improper installation may cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire, or equipment damage.
• Install the air conditioner according to the instructions given in this manual.
Incomplete installation may cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire or equipment damage.
• Be sure to use the supplied or exact specified installation parts.
Use of other parts may cause the unit to come to lose, water leakage, electrical shock, fire or equipment damage.
• Install the air conditioner on a solid base that is level and can support the weight of the unit.
An inadequate base or incomplete installation may cause injury or equipment damage in the event the unit falls off the base or comes loose.
• Electrical work should be carried out in accordance with the installation manual and the national, state and local electrical wiring codes.
Insufficient capacity or incomplete electrical work may cause electrical shock, fire or equipment damage.
• Be sure to use a dedicated power circuit. Never use a power supply shared by another appliance. Follow all appropriate electrical codes.
• For wiring, use a wire or cable long enough to cover the entire distance with no splices if possible. Do not use an extension cord. Do not put other loads on the power supply. Use a only a separate dedicated power circuit.
(Failure to do so may cause abnormal heat, electric shock, fire or equipment damage.)
• Use the specified types of wires for electrical connections between the indoor and outdoor units. Follow all state and local electrical codes.
Firmly clamp the interconnecting wires so their terminals receive no external stresses. Incomplete connections or clamping may cause terminal overheating, fire or equipment damage.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
• After connecting all wiring be sure to shape the cables so that they do not put undue stress on the electrical cov­ers, panels or terminals.
Install covers over the wires. Incomplete cover installation may cause terminal overheating, electrical shock,fire or equipment damage.
• When installing or relocating the system, be sure to keep the refrigerant circuit free from all substances other than the specified refrigerant (R410A), such as air.
(Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit causes an abnormal pressure rise which may result in rupture, resulting in injury.)
• During pump-down, stop the compressor before removing the refrigerant piping.
If the compressor is still running and the shut-off valve is open during pump-down, air will be sucked in when the refrigerant piping is removed, causing abnormally high pressure which could lead to equipment damage or and personal injury.
• During installation, attach the refrigerant piping securely before running the compressor.
If the compressor is not attached and the shut-off valve is open during pump-down, air will be sucked in when the compressor is run, causing abnormally high pressure which could lead to equipment damage and personal injury.
• Install a leak circuit breaker, as required.
If a leak circuit breaker is not installed, electric shock may result.
• Be sure to install a ground fault circuit interrupter breaker.
Failure to install a ground fault circuit interrupter breaker may result in electrically shocks or personal injury.
CAUTION
• Establish drain piping according to the instructions of this manual.
Inadequate piping may cause water damage.
• Note for installing the outdoor unit. (For heat pump model only.)
In regions of the country where the outside temperature is at or below the freezing point, the drain may freeze. If so, it is recommended that an electric heater be installed in order to protect the drain from freezing.
• Tighten the flare nut according to the specified torque. A torque wrench should be used.
If the flare nut is tightened too much, the flare nut may crack over time and cause refrigerant leakage.
• Do not touch the heat exchanger fins.
Improper handling may result in injury.
• 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.

• Optimum air distribution is ensured.
• The air passage is not blocked.
• Condensate can drain properly.
• The ceiling is strong enough to bear the weight of the indoor unit.
• A false ceiling does not seem to be at an incline.
• Sufficient clearance for maintenance and servicing is ensured.
• Piping between the indoor and outdoor units is within the allowable limits. (Refer to the installation manual for the outdoor unit.)
• The indoor unit, outdoor unit, power supply wiring and transmission wiring is at least 3.3ft away from televisions and radios. This prevents image interference and noise in electrical appliances. (Noise may be generated depending on the conditions under which the electric wave is generated, even if a 3.3ft allowance is maintained.)
Use suspension bolts to install the unit. Check whether or not the ceiling is

CHOOSING A SITE
 Select the signal receiver mounting location according to the following
conditions:
• Install the signal receiver, which has a built-in temperature sensor, near the intake vent where there is convection of air and it can get an accurate reading of the room’s temperature. If the intake vent is in another room or the unit cannot be installed near the intake vent for any other reason, install it 5ft above the floor on a wall where there is convection.
• In order to get an accurate reading of the room’s temperature, install the signal receiver in a location where it is not exposed directly to cold or hot air from the air discharge grille or to direct sunlight.
• Since the receiver has a built-in light receptor to receive signals from the wireless remote controller, do not mount it in a location where the signal may be blocked by a curtain, etc.
Caution
If the signal receiver is not installed in a location where there is convection of air, it may be unable to get an accurate reading of the room’s temperature.
Wireless remote controller
• Turn on all the fluorescent lamps in the room, if any, and find the site where remote controller signals are properly received by the indoor unit (within 13ft).
Outdoor unit
• For outdoor unit installation, see the installation manual supplied with the outdoor unit.
Air discharge grille: Wooden or plastic grille is recommended because condensation may occur depending on humidity conditions.

PREPARATIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION

 Relation of the unit to the suspension bolt positions.
• Install the inspection opening on the control box side where maintenance and inspection of the control box are easy. Install the inspection opening also in the lower part of the unit.
 Make sure the range of the unit’s external static
pressure is not exceeded.
(See the technical documentation for the range of the external static pressure setting.)
 Open the installation hole. (Pre-set ceilings)
• Once the installation hole is opened in the ceiling where the unit is to be installed, pass refrigerant piping, drain piping, transmission wiring, and remote controller wiring (unneeded if using a wireless remote controller) to the unit’s piping and wiring holes.See “REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK”, “DRAIN PIPING WORK”, and “WIRING”.
• After opening the ceiling hole, make sure ceiling is level if needed. It might be necessary to reinforce the ceiling frame to prevent shaking.Consult an architect or carpenter for details.
 Install the suspension bolts.
(Use W3/8 to M10 suspension bolts.) Use a hole-in-anchor, sunken insert, sunken anchor for existing ceilings, and a sunken insert, sunken anchor or other part to be procured in the field to reinforce the ceiling to bearing the weight of the unit. (Refer to Fig.)
