●Be sure to use the specified piping set for R-410A. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.
●When installing or removing an air conditioner, only specified refrigerant (R410A) shall be allowed, do not allow air or moisture to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high so that a rupture may be caused.
●Be sure to ventilate fully if a refrigerant gas leak while at work. If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire, a poisonous gas may occur.
●After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage. If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, coming into contact with fire in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.
●Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualified air conditioner technician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and fire, etc.
●Be sure to connect the earth wire from the power supply wire to the outdoor unit and between the outdoor and indoor
unit. Improper earthing may cause electric shock.
!CAUTION
●A circuit breaker must be installed in the house distribution box for the direct connected power supply wire to the outdoor unit. In case of other installations a main switch with a contact gap or more than 3.5mm has to be installed. Without a
circuit breaker, the danger of electric shock exists.
●Do not install the unit near a location where there is flammable gas. The outdoor unit may catch fire if flammable
gas leaks around it. Piping shall be suitable supported with a maximum spacing of 1m between the supports.
●Be sure to tighten the flare nut to the specified torque using a torque wrench. If the flare nut is tightened excessively, it may crack as time elapses, cause refrigerant leakage.
●Please ensure smooth flow of water when installing the drain hose.
●An IEC approved power cord should be used. Power cord type: NYM.
THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE (Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation).
!WARNING
●The Outdoor unit must be mounted at a location which can support heavy weight. Otherwise, noise and vibration will increase.
!CAUTION
●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 specified in figure below. At least 3 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.
●Do not install at a location where there is flammable gas, steam, oil and smoke.
●The location must be convenient for water drainage.
●Place the Outdoor unit and its connecting cord at least 1m away from the antenna or signal line of television, radio or telephone. This is to avoid noise interference.
