Special warnings
When wiring:
Electrical shock can cause severe personal injury or death. Only a qualified,
experienced electrician should attempt to wire this system.
• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected and checked.
• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and a possible fire hazard.
When transporting:
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and
bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on
the air conditioner can cut your finger.

Installation
Read completely, then follow step by step.
Installation
Selection of the best location
• There should not be any heat source or steam
near the unit.
• There should not be any obstacles to prevent the
air circulation.
• A place where air circulation in the room will be
good.
• A place where drainage can be easily obtained.
• A place where noise prevention is taken into consideration.
• Do not install the unit near the door way.
• Ensure the spaces indicated by arrows from the
wall, ceiling, fence, or other obstacles.
The mounting wall should be strong and solid
enough to protect it from the vibration.

Fixing Installation Plate
The wall you select should be strong and solid
enough to prevent vibration
1. Mount the installation plate on the wall with
type "A" screws. If mounting the unit on a concrete wall, use anchor bolts.
• Mount the installation plate horizontally by aligning
the centerline using a level.
2. Measure the wall and mark the centerline. It is
also important to use caution concerning the location of the installation plate-routing of the wiring to
power outlets is through the walls typically. Drilling
the hole through the wall for piping connections
must be done safely.

Installation
Piping Method
CAUTION : When
install, make sure that
the remaining parts must be
removed clearly so as not to
damage the piping and drain
hose, especially power cord
and connecting cable.
■ Preparing the indoor unit's piping and drain hose for
installation through the wall.
■ Remove the plastic tubing retainer(see illustration
below) and pull the tubing and drain hose away from
chassis.
■ Replace the plastic tubing holder in the original position.
1. Route the indoor tubing and the drain hose in the
direction of rear left.
2. Insert the connecting cable into the indoor unit
from the outdoor unit through the piping hole.
■ Do not connect the cable to the indoor unit.
■ Make a small loop with the cable for easy connection
later.
■ Drill a hole in the wall
• Drill the piping hole with a ø70mm hole core drill.
Drill the piping hole at either the right or the left with
the hole slightly slanted to the outdoor side.
3. Tape the tubing, drain hose and the connecting
cable. Be sure that the drain hose is located at the
lowest side of the bundle. Locating at the upper
side can cause drain pan to overflow inside the
unit.
: If the drain hose is routed inside the room,
insulate the hose with an insulation material* so that dripping from "sweating"(condensation) will not damage furniture or floors.
*Foamed polyethylene or equivalent is recommended.
4. Indoor unit installation
■ Hook the indoor unit onto the upper portion of the
installation plate.(Engage the two hooks of the rear
top of the indoor unit with the upper edge of the
installation plate.) Ensure that the hooks are properly
seated on the installation plate by moving it left and
right.
Press the lower left and right sides of the unit against
the installation plate until the hooks engage into their
slots(clicking sound).
5. Connecting the pipings to the indoor unit and drain
hose to drain pipe.
■ Align the center of the pipings and sufficiently tighten
the flare nut by hand.
