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.
The choice of materials and installations must comply with the applicable local/national or international standards.
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.

Selection of the best location
• Where optimum air distribution can be ensured.
• Where nothing blocks air passage and install the duct work.
• Where condensate can be properly drained.
• Where the ceiling is strong enough to bear the indoor unit weight.
• Where the false ceiling is not noticeably on an incline.
• Where sufficient clearance for maintenance and service can be ensured.
• Where piping between indoor and outdoor units is possible within the allowable limit. Refer to the installation manual for the outdoor unit.
• Vertical Air Handling Unit can be installed for upflow and horizontal-left positions.
More than 350
(13-25/32)
More than 600(23-5/8) clearance from access panels for Service
More than 350

Upflow Installation
• Position unit for plenum installation.
• The plenum should be secured in order to support the installation of adapter callers accommodate the installation of any duct work.
• Seal all duct work according to local codes to prevent air leakage. Ensure that filter access is unobstructed.
• The air handler support platform should be sturdy enough to support the cabinet plus any accessory components including filter box.
• The minimum height clearance is 14 inches(350 mm) to maintain proper air flow.
• Vibration isolators (purchased locally) must be placed between the unit and the pedestal.
• An illustration showing an example of where a vibration isolator should be added would clarify what the installing contractor should do to properly position the isolator.
