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.
WARNING
Please request your sales agent or quali ed technician to install your unit. Water leakage, short circuit or  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  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 wire which is speci ed for the air conditioner. A short circuit and  re may occur due to the use of low quality wire or improper work.
Be sure to use the speci 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  re.
Please use the speci ed components for installation work. Otherwise, the units may collapse or water leakage,
electric shock and  re may occur.
Do not mix any coolant other than R-22 into the cooling circulation path when mounting or shifting the unit. If it
is mixed with air, the high pressure in the circulation path will rise and this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.
THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE
(Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation).
WARNING
The unit should be mounted at stable, non-vibratory location
which can provide full support to the unit.
CAUTION
No nearby heat source and no obstruction near the air outlet is
allowed.
The clearance distances from top, right and left are speci ed in
 gure below.
The location must be convenient for water drainage and pipe
connection with the Outdoor unit.
To avoid interference from noise please place the unit and its
INDOOR UNIT
remote controller at least 1m from the radio, television and inverter type  uorescent lamp.
To avoid any error in signal transmission from the remote controller,
please put the controller far away from high-frequency machines and high-power wireless systems.
The installation height of indoor unit must be 2.3m or more in a
non public area.

The outdoor unit must be mounted at a location which can sup-
port heavy weight. Otherwise, noise and vibration will increase.
CAUTION
WARNING
Do not expose the unit under direct sunshine or rain. Besides,
ventilation must be good and clear of obstruction.
The air blown out of the unit should not point directly to animals
or plants.
The clearances of the unit from top, left, right and front are
speci ed in  gure below. At least three of the above sides must be open air.
Be sure that the hot air blown out of the unit and noise do not
disturb the neighbourhood.
OUTDOOR UNIT
Do not install at a location where there is  ammable gas, steam,
oil and smoke.
The location must be convenient for water drainage.
Place the outdoor unit and its connection wire at least 1m away
from the antenna or signal line of television, radio or telephone. This is to avoid noise interference.
Figure showing the Installation of Indoor and Outdoor Unit.
CAUTION
In case the pipe length is more than 8m, add refrigerant R22 at 10 gram per every meter exceeds. However, pipe length shall not exceed 15m.
Be sure to completely seal any gap with putty.
CAUTION
Be sure to use the earth line. Do not place earth line near gas or water pipes, lightning conductor
and the earth line of telephone. Improper earthing may cause electric shocks.
A circuit breaker should be installed depending on the mounting size of the unit. Without a circuit breaker, the
danger of electric shock exists.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is  ammable gas. The outdoor unit may
catch  re if  ammable gas leaks around it.
Please ensure smooth  ow of water when installing the drain hose.

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  xed horizontally or slightly tilted towards the side of drain hose. Otherwise, condensed water may over ow the water container.
Direct Mounting On The Wall
Please use hidden beams in the wall to hold the hanger.
Procedures of Installation and Precautions
Procedures to  x the hanger.
1. Drill holes on wall. 2. Push plug into the holes. 3. Fix the hanger on wall (As shown below) (As shown below) with 4.1 x 32 screw (As shown in  gure below)
INDOOR UNIT
Procedures to  x the holder of remote control.
1. Drill holes on wall. 2. Push plug into the holes. (As shown below) (As shown below)
Wall Penetration and Installation of Protection Pipe
Drill a ø 65mm hole on
wall which is slightly tilted towards the outdoor side. Drill the wall at a small angle.
Cut the protection pipe
according to the wall thickness.
Empty gap in the sleeve
of protection pipe should be completely sealed with putty to avoid dripping of rain water into the room.
WARNING
Be sure that the wire is not in contact with any metal in the wall. Please use the protection pipe as wire passing through the hollow part of the wall so as to prevent the possibility of damaged by mouse. Unless it seals completely, any air with high humidity flows from outdoor and any dew may drop.

Installation Of Remote Controller
The remote controller can be placed in its holder which is
 xed on wall or beam.
To operate the remote controller at its holder, please ensure
that the unit can receive signal transmitted from the controller at the place where the holder is to be  xed. The unit will beep when signal is received from the remote controller. The signal transmission is weaken by the  uorescent light. Therefore, during the installation of the remote control holder, please switch on the light, even during day time, to determine the mounting location of the holder.
The controller should be insert from top into bottom side of the holder as shown in  gure below.
Operation Test
Please ensure that the air conditioner is in normal operating
condition during the operation test.
Explain to your customer the proper operation procedures
as described in the user’s manual.

Power Source And Operation Test
Power Source
CAUTION
Please use a new socket. Accident may occur due to the
use of old socket because of poor contact.
Please plug in and then remove the plug for 2 – 3 times.
This is to ensure that the plug is completely plugged into the socket.
Keep additional length for the power cord and do not
render the plug under external force as this may cause poor contact.
