Symbol with dark background denotes item that must be carried out.
WARNING
Do not install outdoor unit near handrail of veranda. When installing air-conditioner unit on veranda of a high rise building, child
1. may climb up to outdoor unit and cross over the handrail causing an accident.
Do not use unspecified cord, modified cord, joint cord or extension cord for power supply cord. Do not share the single outlet
2. with other electrical appliances. Poor contact, poor insulation or over current will cause electrical shock or fire.
3. Do not tie up the power supply cord into a bundle by band. Abnormal temperature rise on power supply cord may happen.
4.
Do not insert your fingers or other objects into the unit, high speed rotating fan may cause injury.
5.
Do not sit or step on the unit, you may fall down accidentally.
6. Keep plastic bag (packaging material) away from small children, it may cling to nose and mouth and prevent breathing.
When installing or relocating air conditioner, do not let any substance other than the specified refrigerant, eg. air etc mix into
7.
refrigeration cycle (piping). Mixing of air etc will cause abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury etc.
8. Do not add or replace refrigerant other than specified type. It may cause product damage, burst and injury etc.
For R410A model, use piping, flare nut and tools which is specified for R410A refrigerant. Using of existing (R22) piping, flare nut
and tools may cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigerant cycle (piping), and possibly result in explosion and injury.
9.
Thickness for copper pipes used with R410A must be more than 1/32" (0.8 mm). Never use copper pipes thinner than
1/32" (0.8 mm).
It is desirable that the amount of residual oil less than 0.0008 oz/ft (40 mg/10 m).
Engage authorized dealer or specialist for installation. If installation done by the user is incorrect, it will cause water leakage, electrical
10. shock or fire.
11. Install according to this installation instructions strictly. If installation is defective, it will cause water leakage, electrical shock or fire.
Use the attached accessories parts and specified parts for installation. Otherwise, it will cause the set to fall, water leakage, fire or
12. electrical shock.
Install at a strong and firm location which is able to withstand the set’s weight. If the strength is not enough or installation is not properly
13. done, the set will drop and cause injury.
For installation work, follow all electrical, building, plumbing, local codes, regulations and these installation instructions. If electrical circuit
14. capacity is not enough or a defect is found in electrical work, it will cause electrical shock or fire.
Do not use spliced wires for indoor/outdoor connection cable. Use the specified indoor/outdoor connection cable, refer to instruction
15.
CONNECT THE CABLE TO THE INDOOR/OUTDOOR UNIT and connect tightly for indoor/outdoor connection. Clamp the cable so that no external force will have impact on the terminal. If connection or fixing is not perfect, it will cause heat-up or fire at the connection.
Wire routing must be properly arranged so that control board cover is fixed properly. If control board cover is not fixed perfectly, it will
16. cause fire or electrical shock.
This equipment must installed with an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) or Ground Fault Current Interrupter (GFCI) or Appliance
17.
Leakage Current Interrupter (ALCI) that has been certified by an NRTL Certified Testing Agency and that is suitable for the voltages and amperages involved. Otherwise, if may cause electrical shock and fire in case of equipment breakdown.
3
During installation, install the refrigerant piping properly before running the compressor. Operation of compressor without fixing
18.
refrigeration piping and valves at opened condition will cause suck-in of air, abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury etc.
During pump down operation, stop the compressor before removing the refrigeration piping. Removal of refrigeration piping while
19.
compressor is operating and valves are opened will cause suck-in of air, abnormal high pressure in refrigeration cycle and result in explosion, injury etc.
Tighten the flare nut with torque wrench according to specified method. If the flare nut is over-tightened, after a long period, the flare
20. may break and cause refrigerant gas leakage.
After completion of installation, confirm there is no leakage of refrigerant gas. It may generate toxic gas when the refrigerant comes into
21. contact with fire.
22. Ventilate if there is refrigerant gas leakage during operation. It may cause toxic gas when the refrigerant comes into contact with fire.
This equipment must be properly earthed. Earth line must not be connected to gas pipe, water pipe, earth of lightning rod and telephone.
23. Otherwise, it may cause electrical shock in case of equipment breakdown or insulation breakdown.
CAUTION
Do not install the unit at place where leakage of flammable gas may occur. In case gas leaks and accumulates at surrounding
1. of the unit, it may cause fire.
Do not release refrigerant during piping work for installation, re-installation and during repairing a refrigeration parts. Take care
2. of the liquid refrigerant, it may cause frostbite.
3. Do not install this appliance in a laundry room or other location where water may drip from the ceiling, etc.
4.
Do not touch the sharp aluminium fin, sharp parts may cause injury.
Carry out drainage piping as mentioned in installation instructions. If drainage is not perfect, water may enter the room and damage the
5. furniture.
6. Select an installation location which is easy for maintenance.

11.1 Indoor Unit
11.1.1 Selecting the Installation Location
Take into consideration the following contents when creating the blueprint.
Indoor unit installation location
Do not install the unit in excessive oil fume area such as kitchen, workshop and etc.  The location should be strong enough to support the main unit without vibration.  There should not be any heat or steam source nearby.  Drainage should be easy. Avoid locating the drain port close to ditches (domestic wastewater).  Avoid locations above entrances and exits.  Do not block the air intake and discharge passages.  Select the location that enables the cool and warm air to spread out to the entire room.  Locate the indoor unit at least 3.28 ft (1 m) or more away from a TV, radio, wireless appliance, antenna cable and
fluorescent light, and 6.56 ft (2 m) or more away from a telephone.
Recommended installation height for indoor unit shall be at least 8.27 ft (2.5 m) from floor.
11.1.2 To Drill a Hole in the Wall and Install a Sleeve of Piping
1 Insert the piping sleeve to the hole. 2 Fix the bushing to the sleeve. 3 Cut the sleeve until it extrudes about 19/32"
(15 mm) from the wall.
When the wall is hollow, be sure to use the sleeve for tube assembly to prevent pests from damaging the cables, e.g. mice biting the connection cable.
4 Finish by sealing the sleeve with putty or
caulking compound at the final stage.

11.1.3 Installing the Indoor Unit (Installation Embedded in the Ceiling)
11.1.3.1 Preparation Before Installation
Always provide sufficient entry and exit space to allow installation work, inspection and unit replacement.  Waterproof the rear surface of the ceiling below the unit in consideration of water droplets forming and dropping.
When cooling operation is performed for an extended period under the following conditions, water droplets may form and drop. Attach locally purchased insulation (foamed polyethylene with a thickness of 7/32" (5 mm) or more) to the outside of the indoor unit before installing into the ceiling to improve heat insulation.
Locations with a dew point inside the ceiling of 73.4°F (23°C) or more Kitchens and other locations that produce large amounts of heat and steam Locations where the inside of the ceiling serves as an outside air intake passage
When installing into a ceiling, select the unit position and airflow direction that enable the cool and warm
air to spread out to the whole room.
Do not place objects that might obstruct the airflow within 3.28 ft (1 m) below the intake grill.

To increase the air volume, open the control box and on the control board, switch the FAN switch (SW2) to “HI”.  See the diagram for “Connecting the Indoor/Outdoor Connection Cable”.
Note: Enabling Long-range Remote Control
To maintain EMC emission limits, cabling interconnecting the HA terminal and subsequent opto-coupler, must be
no more than 6.2 ft (1.9 m) length.
Loop four turns of this cable through a suitable small EMC ferrite toroid, and protect with a short length of large
diameter heat-shrink tube.
There is no similar length limit for cable following on from the opto-coupler isolation.
DISPOSAL OF OUTDOOR UNIT DRAIN WATER
If a drain elbow is used, the unit should be placed
on a stand which is taller than 1 3/16" (30 mm).
If the unit is used in an area where temperature
falls below 32°F (0°C) for 2 or 3 days in succession, it is recommended not to use a drain elbow, for the drain water freezes and the fan will not rotate.

12. Operation and Control
12.1 Basic Function
Inverter control, which equipped with a microcomputer in determining the most suitable operating mode as time passes, automatically adjusts output power for maximum comfort always. In order to achieve the suitable operating mode, the microcomputer maintains the set temperature by measuring the temperature of the environment and performing temperature shifting. The compressor at outdoor unit is operating following the frequency instructed by the microcomputer at indoor unit that judging the condition according to internal setting temperature and intake air temperature.
12.1.1 Internal Setting Temperature
Once the operation starts, remote control setting temperature will be taken as base value for temperature shifting processes. These shifting processes are depending on the air conditioner settings and the operation environment. The final shifted value will be used as internal setting temperature and it is updated continuously whenever the electrical power is supplied to the unit.

13.1 Protection Control For All Operations
13.1.1 Restart Control (Time Delay Safety Control)
The Compressor will not turn on within 3 minutes from the moment operation stops, although the unit is turned on
again by pressing OFF/ON button at remote control within this period.
This control is not applicable if the power supply is cut off and on again.  This phenomenon is to balance the pressure inside the refrigerant cycle.

Once the air conditioner is turned on, the compressor will not stop within 30 seconds in a normal operation
although the intake air temperature has reached the thermo-off temperature. However, force stop by pressing the OFF/ON button at the remote control is permitted or the Auto OFF/ON button at indoor unit.
The reason for the compressor to force operation for minimum 30 seconds is to allow the refrigerant oil run in a
full cycle and return back to the outdoor unit.
13.1.3 Total Running Current Control
1 When the outdoor unit total running current (AC) exceeds X value, the frequency instructed for compressor
operation will be decreased.
2 If the running current does not exceed X value for five seconds, the frequency instructed will be increased.
3 However, if total outdoor unit running current exceeds Y value, compressor will be stopped immediately for
3 minutes.
