TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

Here are some tips that will help you minimize the power consumption when you use the air
conditioner. You can use your air conditioner more efficiently by referring to the instructions
below:

• Do not cool excessively indoors. This may be harmful for your health and may consume more
electricity.

• Block sunlight with blinds or curtains while you are operating the air conditioner.

• Keep doors or windows closed tightly while you are operating the air conditioner.

• Adjust the direction of the air flow vertically or horizontally to circulate indoor air.

• Speed up the fan to cool or warm indoor air quickly, in a short period of time.

• Open windows regularly for ventilation as the indoor air quality may deteriorate if the air condi­tioner is used for many hours.

• Clean the air filter once every 2 weeks. Dust and impurities collected in the air filter may block the
air flow or weaken the cooling / dehumidifying functions.

THE INDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION

Mounting the installation plate
(Wall Mounting)

The wall you select should be strong and solid
enough to prevent vibration

- 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.

- 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.

Mounting the anchor Nut & Bolt
(Ceiling Mounting)

- Prepare 4 suspension bolts. (Each bolts
length should be same.)

- Measure and mark the position for the Sus­pension bolts and the piping hole.

- Drill the hole for anchor nut on the ceiling.

- Insert the nuts and washer onto the suspen­sion bolts for locking the suspension bolts on
the ceiling.

- Mount the suspension bolts to the anchor­nuts firmly.

- Secure the hangers onto the Suspension
bolts (adjust level roughly.) using nuts, wash­ers and spring washers.

- Adjust a level with a level gauge on the direc­tion of left-right, back-forth by adjusting sus­pension bolts.

- Adjust a level on the direction of top-bottom
by adjusting supension bolts. Then the unit
will be declined to the bottomside so as to
drain well.

!

CAUTION

Tighten the nut and bolt to prevent unit
falling.

Drain piping

- The drain hose should point downward for
easy drain flow.

- Do not make drain piping like the following.

Drain test

Use the following procedure to test the drain
pump operation:

- Set the air direction louvers up-and-down to
the position(horizontally) by hand.

- Pour a glass of water on the evaporator
using a kettle.

- Ensure the water flows through the drain
hose of the indoor unit without any leakage
and goes out the drain exit.

- Be sure to execute heat insulation on the
drain piping.

Heat insulation material: Polyethylene
foam with thickness more than 8 mm.

Heat insulation

Use the heat insulation material for the refrig­erant piping which has an excellent heat-resis­tance (over 120°C).

Precautions in high humidity circumstance:
This air conditioner has been tested according
to the "KS Standard Conditions with Mist" and
confirmed that there is not any default. How­ever, if it is operated for a long time in high
humid atmosphere (dew point temperature:
more than 23°C), water drops are liable to fall.
In this case, add heat insulation material ac­cording to the following procedure:

- Heat insulation material to be prepared... Adi­abatic glass wool with thickness 10 to
20mm.

- Stick glass wool on all air conditioners that
are located in ceiling atmosphere.

Wiring Connection

Connect the wires to the terminals on the
control board individually according to the out­door unit connection.

CAUTION

!

• The connecting cable connected to the
indoor and outdoor unit should be com­plied with the following specifications
(Rubber insulation, type H05RN-F ap­proved by HAR or SAA).

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by a special cord or assem­bly available from the manufacturer of
its service agent.

Round pressure terminal

Power wire

Connect same thickness
wiring to both sides.

It is forbidden to connect

It is forbidden to
connect wiring of
different thicknesses.

ENGLISH

Precautions when laying power wiring

Use round pressure terminals for connections to the power terminal block.

When none are available, follow the instructions below.

- Do not connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block. (Slack in the power
wiring may cause abnormal heat.)

- When connecting wiring which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure below.

- For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect firmly, then secure to prevent outside
pressure being exerted on the terminal block.

- Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terinal screws. A screwdriver with a small
head will strip the head and make proper tighterning impossible.

- Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.

TEST RUNNING

TEST RUNNING

15

ENGLISH

PRECAUTIONS IN TEST RUNNING

- The initial power supply must provide at least
90% of the rated voltage.
Otherwise, the air conditioner should not be
operated.

CAUTION

!

• For test run, carry out the cooling
operation firstly even during heating
season. If heating operation is carried
out firstly, it leads to the trouble of
compressor. Then attention must be
paid.

• Carry out the test run more than 5
minutes without fail.
(Test run will be cancelled 18 minutes
later automatically)

- To cancel the test run, press any button.

Check the following items when in­stallation is complete

After completing work, be sure to measure
and record trial run properties, and store
measured data, etc.

Measuring items are room temperature, out­side temperature, suction temperature, blow
out temperature, wind velocity, wind volume,
voltage, current, presence of abnormal vibra­tion and noise, operating pressure, piping tem­perature, compressive pressure.

As to the structure and appearance, check fol­lowing items.

- Is the circulation of air adequate?

- Is the draining smooth?

- Is the heat insulation complete
(refrigerant and drain piping)?

- Is there any leakage of refrigerant?

- Is the remote controller switch operated?

- Is there any faulty wiring?

- Are not terminal screws loosened?

M5......196N.cm{20kgf.cm}

M6......245N.cm{25kgf.cm}

M8......588N.cm{60kgf.cm}

Connection of power supply

Connect the power supply cord to the inde­pendent power supply.

- Circuit breaker is required.

Operate the unit for fifteen minutes or more.

Evaluation of the performance

Measure the temperature of the intake and
discharge air.

Ensure the difference between the intake
temperature and the discharge one is more
than 8°C (Cooling) or reversely (Heating).

ENGLISH

TEST RUNNING

CAUTION

!

After the confirmation of the above condi­tions, prepare the wiring as follows:

• Never fail to have an individual power
specialized for the air conditioner. As for
the method of wiring, be guided by the
circuit diagram pasted on the inside of
control box cover.

• Provide a circuit breaker switch between
power source and the unit.

• The screw which fasten the wiring in
the casing of electrical fittings are liable
to come loose from vibrations to which
the unit is subjected during the course
of transportation. Check them and make
sure that they are all tightly fastened. (If
they are loose, it could give rise to burn­out of the wires.)

• Specification of power source.

• Confirm that electrical capacity is suffi­cient.

• Be sure that the starting voltage is main­tained at more than 90 percent of the
rated voltage marked on the name plate.

• Confirm that the cable thickness is as
specified in the power sources specifica­tion.
(Particularly note the relation between
cable length and thickness.)

• Never fail to equip a leakage breaker
where it is wet or moist.

• The following troubles would be caused
by voltage drop-down.

- Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage
on the contact point there of, fuse
breaking, disturbance to the normal
function of a overload protection de­vice.

- Proper starting power is not given to
the compressor.

• Use only 1 remote-controller contained
in indoor unit, when you combine to use
both cassette type indoor unit and differ­ent Indoor units combinations as shown
below.

HAND OVER

Teach the customer the operation and mainte­nance procedures, using the operation manual
(air filter cleaning, temperature control, etc.).
