NOTICES BEFORE INSTALLATION
1. Select the correct carry-in path.
2. Move this unit as originally packaged as possible.
3. If the air conditioner is installed on a metal part of the building, it must be electrically insulated
according to the relevant standards to electrical appliances.
1. The indoor unit
•
There is enough room for installation and maintenance.
• The ceiling is horizontal, and its structure can endure the weight of the indoor unit.
• The air outlet and the air inlet are not impeded, and the influence of external air is the least.
• The air flow can reach throughout the room.
• The connecting pipe and drainpipe could be extracted out easily.
• There is no direct radiation from heaters.
2. The outdoor unit
•
There is enough room for installation and maintenance.
• The air outlet and the air inlet are not impeded, and can not be reached by strong wind. It must be a dry
and well ventilating place.
• The support is flat and horizontal and can stand the weight of the outdoor unit. And will no additional
noise or vibration.
• Your neighborhood will not feel uncomfortable with the noise or expelled air. There is no leakage of
combustible air.
• It is easy to install the connecting pipe or cables.
• Determine the air outlet direction where the discharged air is not blocked.
• A place free of a leakage of combustible gases.
• In the case that the installation place is exposed to a strong wind such as a seaside or high position,
secure the normal fan operation by putting the unit lengthwise along the wall or using a duct or shield
plates.
• If possible, do not install the unit where it is exposed to direct sunlight.
• If necessary, install a blind that does not interfere with the air flow.
• During the heating mode, the water drained off the outdoor unit.The condensate should be well drained
away by the drain hole to an appropriate place, so as not to interfere other people or public.
• Select the position where it will not be subject to snow drifts, accumulation of leaves or other seasonal
debris. It is important that the air flow for the outdoor unit is not impeded as this will result in reduction in
heating or cooling performance.

5. INDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION
1. Installation place
•
A place where there is enough room for installation and maintenance.(Refer to Chart 1)
• The ceiling is structurally sound to hold the Indoor Unit.
• A place that is well ventilated and the influence of weather is the least.
• A place that the airflow can reach every corners of the room.
• A place where the drain pipe can reach out easily.
Necessary room
MODEL 12-18(600x600)
• Install the outdoor unit on a rigid base to prevent increasing noise level and vibration.
• Determine the air outlet direction where the discharged air is not blocked.
• In the case that the installation place is exposed to strong wind such as a seaside or high position,
secure the normal fan operation by putting the unit length wise along the wall or using a duct or
shield plates.
• Specially in windy area, install the unit to prevent the admission of wind.
2. Indoor unit installation Model 12-18(600x600)
(1) Install the main body
A. The existing ceiling (to be horizontal)
a. Please cut a quadrangular hole of 600X600mm in the ceiling according to the shape of the
installation paper board.
The center of the hole should be at the same position of that of the air conditioner body.
Determine the lengths and outlets of the connecting pipe, drain pipe and cables.
To balance the ceiling and to avoid vibration, please enforce the ceiling when necessary.
b. Please select the position of installation hooks according to the hook holes on the installation board.
Drill four holes of 12mm, 50~55mm deep at the selected positions on the ceiling. Then embed the
expansible hooks (fittings).
Face the concave side of the installation hooks toward the expansible hooks. Determine the length
of the installation hooks from the height of ceiling, then cut off the unnecessary part.
If the ceiling is extremely high, please determine the length of the installation hook according to facts.
Cut the installation hook open in the middle position, then use appropriate length of reinforcing rod
(φ12) to weld together.
Model 18, 24, 30, 36, 48
7
The length could be calculated from Chart5:
Length = 210+L (in general, L is half of the whole length of the installation hook)
c. Please adjust the hexangular nuts on the four installation hooks evenly, to ensure the balance of the
body.
Use the transparent hose filled with water to check the lever of the main body from the four sides or
diagonal line direction, the lever indicator also can check the lever from four sides of the main body.
(Refer to chart 6)
If the drainpipe is awry, leakage will be caused by the malfunction of the water-level switch.
Adjust the position to ensure the gaps between the body and the four sides of ceiling are even.
The body's lower part should sink into the ceiling for 10~12mm (Refer to chart5).
Locate the air conditioner firmly by wrenching the nuts after having adjusted the body's position well.
B. New built houses and ceilings
a. In the case of new built house, the hook can be embedded in advance (refer to the A.b mentioned
above). But it should be strong enough to bear the indoor unit and will not become loose because
of concrete shrinking.
b. After installing the body, please fasten the installation paper board onto the air conditioner with
bolts (M5X16) to determine in advance the sizes and positions of the hole opening on ceiling.
Please first guarantee the flatness and horizontal of ceiling when installing it. Refer to the A.a
mentioned above for others.
c. Refer to the A.c mentioned above for installation.
d. Remove the installation paper board.

(2) Install The Panel
Cautions: Never put the panel face down on floor or against the wall, or on bulgy objects.
Never crash or strike it.
1) Remove the inlet grid.
a. Slide two grid switches toward the middle at the same time, and then pull them up. (Refer to chart 9)
b. Draw the grid up to an angle of about 45, and remove it. (Refer to chart 10)
2) Install the panel
a. Align the swing motor on the panel to the water receiver of the body properly. (Refer to chart 11)
b. Hang the four fixed rope of the main body to the installation cover and the other three covers of the
swing motor: (Refer to chart 11)
CAUTIONS: The installation cover of the swing motor must sink into the corresponding water
receiver.
c. Install the panel on the main body with bolt (M5X16) and washer. (Refer to chart 11)
d. Adjust the four panel hook screws to keep the panel horizontal, and screw them up to the ceiling
evenly.
e. Regulate the panel in the direction of the arrow in Chart 11 (3) slightly to fit the panel's center to the
center of the ceiling's opening. Guarantee that hooks of four corners are fixed well.
f. Keep fastening the screws under the panel hooks, until the thickness of the sponge between the
body and the panel's outlet has been reduced to about 4~6mm. The edge of the panel should
contact with the ceiling well. (Refer to chart 12)
Malfunction described in Chart 13 can be caused by inappropriate tightness the screw.
If the gap between the panel and ceiling still exists after fastening the screws, the height of the
indoor unit should be modified again. You can modify the height of the indoor unit through the
openings on the panel's four corners, if the lift of the indoor unit and the drainpipe is not
influenced (refer to chart 14-right).
3) Hang the air-in grid to the panel, then connect the lead terminator of the swing motor and that of the
control box with corresponding terminators on the body respectively.
