DANGER
• Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen. A
massive leak will result in oxygen depletion, especially in
basements, and an asphyxiation hazard will result in seri-
ous injury or death.
• Do not ground units to water pipes, gas pipes, telephone
wires, or lightning rods as incomplete grounding will result
a severe shock hazard resulting in severe injury or death.
Additionally, grounding to gas pipes will result a gas leak
and potential explosion resulting in severe injury or death.
• If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the
area immediately. Refrigerant gas will result in producing
toxic gas if it comes into contact with re. Exposure to this
gas will result in severe injury or death.
• After completing the installation work, check that the refrigerant gas does not leak throughout the system.
• Do not install unit in an area where ammable materials
are present due to risk of explosions that will result in seri-
ous injury or death.
• Safely dispose all packing and transportation materials
in accordance with federal/state/local laws or ordinances.
Packing materials such as nails and other metal or wood
parts, including plastic packing materials used for transportation will result in injuries or death by suffocation.
WARNING
• Only qualied personnel must carry out the installation
work. Installation must be done in accordance with this
installation manual. Improper installation could result in
water leakage, electric shock, or re.
• When installing the unit in a small room, take measures to
keep the refrigerant concentration from exceeding allowable safety limits. Excessive refrigerant leaks, in the event
of an accident in a closed ambient space, could result in
oxygen deciency.
• Use only specied accessories and parts for installation
work. Failure to use specied parts could result in water
leakage, electric shocks, re, or the unit falling.
• Install the air conditioner or heat pump on a foundation
strong enough that it can withstand the weight of the unit.
A foundation of insufcient strength could result in the unit
falling and causing injuries.
• Take into account strong winds, typhoons, or earthquakes
when installing. Improper installation could result in the
unit 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 qualied personnel according to local, state and
national regulations. An insufcient power supply capacity
or improper electrical construction could result in electric
shocks or re.
• Make sure that all wiring is secured, that specied wires
are used, and that no external forces act on the terminal
connections or wires. Improper connections or installation
could result in re.
• When wiring, position the wires so that the control box
cover can be securely fastened. Improper positioning of
the control box cover could result in electric shocks, re, or
the terminals overheating.
• Before touching electrical parts, turn off the unit.
• This equipment can be installed with a Ground-Fault Cir-
cuit Interrupter (GFCI). Although this is a recognized measure for additional protection, with the grounding system in
North America, a dedicated GFCI is not necessary.
• Securely fasten the unit terminal cover (panel). If the
terminal cover/panel is not installed properly, dust or
water may enter the outdoor unit and could result in re or
electric shock.
• When installing or relocating the system, keep the refriger-
ant circuit free from substances other than the specied
refrigerant (R410A) such as air. Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit could result
in abnormal pressure rise or rupture, resulting in injury.
• Do not change the setting of the protection devices. If the
pressure switch, thermal switch, or other protection device
is shorted and operated forcibly, or parts other than those
specied by Daikin are used, re or explosion could result.

CAUTION
• Do not touch the switch with wet ngers. Touching a switch
with wet ngers may result in electric shock.
• Do not allow children to play on or around the unit or it
may result in injury.
• The heat exchanger ns are sharp enough to cut, and
may result in injury if improperly used. To avoid injury wear
glove or cover the ns when working around them.
• Do not touch the refrigerant pipes during and immediately
after operation as the refrigerant pipes may be hot or
cold, depending on the condition of the refrigerant owing through the refrigerant piping, compressor, and other
refrigerant cycle parts. It may result in your hands getting burns or frostbite if you touch the refrigerant pipes.
To avoid injury, give the pipes time to return to normal
temperature or, if you must touch them, be sure to wear
proper gloves.
• Install drain piping to proper drainage. Improper drain piping may result in water leakage and property damage.
• Insulate piping to prevent condensation.
• Be careful when transporting the product.
• Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping
operation. Always wait for at least 5 minutes before turning
off the power. Otherwise, water leakage may result.
• Do not use a charging cylinder. Using a charging cylinder
may cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.
• Refrigerant R410A in the system must be kept clean, dry,
and tight.
(a) Clean and Dry - Foreign materials (including mineral
oils such as SUNISO oil or moisture) should be prevented from getting into the system.
(b) Tight - R410A does not contain any chlorine, does
not destroy the ozone layer, and does not reduce the
earth’s protection again harmful ultraviolet radiation.
R410A can contribute to the greenhouse effect if it is
released. Therefore take proper measures to check
for the tightness of the refrigerant piping installation.
Read the chapter Refrigerant Piping and follow the
procedures.
• Since R410A is a blend, the required additional refrigerant must be charged in its liquid state. If the refrigerant is
charged in a state of gas, its composition can change and
the system will not work properly.
• The indoor unit is for R410A. See the catalog for indoor
models that can be connected. Normal operation is not
possible when connected to other units.
• Remote controller (wireless kit) transmitting distance can
be shorter than expected in rooms with electronic uores-
cent lamps (inverter or rapid start types). Install the indoor
unit far away from uorescent lamps as much as possible.
• Indoor units are for indoor installation only. Outdoor units
can be installed either outdoors or indoors. This unit is for
indoor use.
• Do not install the air conditioner or heat pump in the following locations:
(a) Where a mineral oil mist or oil spray or vapor is pro-
duced, for example, in a kitchen.
Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off and thus may
result in water leakage.
(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 cause the unit to malfunction.
(d) Where ammable gas may leak, where there is car-
bon ber, or ignitable dust suspension in the air, or
where volatile ammables such as thinner or gasoline
are handled. Operating the unit in such conditions
may result in a re.
• Take adequate measures to prevent the outdoor unit from
being used as a shelter by small animals. Small animals
making contact with electrical parts may result in malfunc-
tions, smoke, or re. Instruct the customer to keep the
area around the unit clean.
NOTE
• Install the power supply and transmission wires for the in-
door and outdoor units at least 3.5ft.(1m) away from tele-
visions or radios to prevent image interference or noise.
Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 3.5ft.(1m)
may not be sufcient to eliminate the noise.
• Dismantling the unit, treatment of the refrigerant, oil and
additional parts must be done in accordance with the
relevant local, state, and national regulations.
• Do not use the following tools that are used with conventional refrigerants: gauge manifold, charge hose, gas
base, vacuum gauge, or refrigerant recovery equipment.
• If the conventional refrigerant and refrigerator oil are
mixed in R410A, the refrigerant result in deterioration.
• This air conditioner or heat pump is an appliance that
should not be accessible to the general public.
• As design pressure is 478 psi (3.3 MPa), the wall thick-
ness of eld-installed pipes should be selected in accor-
dance with the relevant local, state, and national regulations.

Refrigerant pipe size and allowable pipe length
7.1. General information
NOTE
The refrigerant R410A requires strict cautions for keeping the system
clean, dry and tight.
• Clean and dry: foreign materials (including mineral oils or moisture)
should be prevented from getting mixed into the system.
• Tight: R410A does not contain any chlorine, does not destroy
the ozone layer, and does not reduce earth’s protection against
harmful ultraviolet radiation. R410A can contribute slightly to the
greenhouse effect if it is released. Therefore we should take special
attention to check the tightness of the installation.
7.2. Selection of piping material
NOTE
Piping and other pressure containing parts shall comply with the applicable legislation and shall be suitable for refrigerant. Use phosphoric
acid deoxidized seamless copper for refrigerant.
NOTE
• All eld piping must be installed by a licensed refrigeration technician and must comply with relevant local and national regulations.
• After piping work is complete, do not under any circumstances open
the stop valve until 9. Field wiring on page18 and 12. Checking of
device and installation conditions on page24 are complete.
• Do not use ux when brazing the refrigerant piping. Use the phosphor copper brazing ller metal (B-Cu93P-710/795 : ISO 3677)
which does not require ux. Flux has extremely negative effect on
refrigerant piping systems. For instance, if the chlorine based ux is
used, it will cause pipe corrosion or, in particular, if the ux contains
uorine, it will damage the refrigerant oil.
• Use only pipes which are clean inside and outside and which do not
accumulate harmful sulfur, oxidants, dirt, cutting oils, moisture, or
other contamination. (Foreign materials inside pipes including oils
for fabrication must be 0.14 gr/10 ft. (30 mg/10 m) or less.)
• Use the following items for the refrigerant piping.
Material : Jointless phosphor-deoxidized copper pipe.
Size : See 7.3. Selection of piping size to determine the correct
size.
Thickness : Select a thickness for the refrigerant piping which
complies with national and local laws.
• For piping work, follow the maximum tolerated length, difference in
height, and length after a branch indicated in the 7.5. System piping
(length) limitations.
• Outdoor unit multi connection piping kit and refrigerant branching
kit (sold separately) are needed for connection of piping between
outdoor units (in case of multi system) and piping branches.
• Use only separately sold items selected specically according to
the outdoor unit multi connection piping kit, the refrigerant branching kit selection in the 7.4. Selection of refrigerant branch kits.
7.3. Selection of piping size
Determine the proper size referring to following tables and reference
