1 Safety Precautions

• Read the following “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before perform any servicing.

• Electrical work must be installed or serviced by a licensed electrician. Be sure to use the correct rating of the power plug and main circuit for the model installed.

• The caution items stated here must be followed because these important contents are related to safety. The meaning of each indication used is as below. Incorrect installation or servicing due to ignoring of the instruction will cause harm or damage, and the seriousness is classified by the following indications.

This indication shows the possibility of causing death or serious injury.

This indication shows the possibility of causing injury or damage to properties.

• The items to be followed are classified by the symbols:

This symbol denotes item that is PROHIBITED from doing.

• Carry out test running to confirm that no abnormality occurs after the servicing. Then, explain to user the operation, care and maintenance as stated in instructions. Please remind the customer to keep the operating instructions for future reference.

1. Engage dealer or specialist for installation and servicing. If installation or servicing done by the user is defective, it will cause water leakage, electrical shock or fire.

2. Install according to this installation instruction strictly. If installation is defective, it will cause water leakage, electrical shock or fire.

3. Use the attached accessories parts and specified parts for installation and servicing. Otherwise, it will cause the set to fall, water leakage, fire or electrical shock.

4. 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 done, the set will drop and cause injury.

5. For electrical work, follow the local national wiring standard, regulation and the installation instruction. An independent circuit and single outlet must be used. If electrical circuit capacity is not enough or defect found in electrical work, it will cause electrical shock or fire.

6. Use the specified cable and connect tightly for indoor/outdoor connection. Connect tightly and clamp the cable so that no external force will be acted on the terminal. If connection or fixing is not perfect, it will cause heat-up or fire at the connection.

7. Wire routing must be properly arranged so that control board cover is fixed properly. If control board cover is not fixed perfectly, it will cause heat-up or fire at the connection point of terminal, fire or electrical shock.

8. When connecting the piping, do not allow air or any substances other than the specified refrigerant to enter the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, this may lower the capacity, cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle, and possibly result in explosion and injury.

9. Thickness of copper pipes used must be more than 0.8 mm. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8 mm.

10. It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m.

11. Do not modify the length of the power supply cord or use of the extension cord, and do not share the single outlet with other electrical appliances. Otherwise, it will cause fire or electrical shock.

1. The equipment must be earthed. It may cause electrical shock if grounding is not perfect.

2. Do not install the unit at place where leakage of flammable gas may occur. In case gas leaks and accumulates at surrounding of the unit, it may cause fire.

3. Carry out drainage piping as mentioned in installation instructions. If drainage is not perfect, water may enter the room and damage the furniture.

4. Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; typically the melting point is 50 - 70qF (30 - 40qC) higher. Please use a high temperature solder iron. In case of the soldering iron with temperature control, please set it to 700 ± 20qF (370 ± 10qC). Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100qF / 600qC).

ATTENT ION

1. Selection of the installation location. Select an installation location which is rigid and strong enough to support or hold the unit, and select a location for easy maintenance.

2. Power supply connection to the conditioner. Connect the power supply cord of the air conditioner to the mains using one of the following methods. Power supply point shall be the place where there is ease for ease for access for the power disconnection in case of emergency. In some countries, permanent connection of this room air conditioner to the power supply is prohibited.

1. Power supply connection to the receptacle using a power plug. Use an approved power plug with earth pin for the connection to the socket.

2. Power supply connection to a circuit breaker for the permanent connection. Use an approved circuit breaker for the permanent connection. It must be a double pole switch with a minimum 3.5 mm contact gap.

3. Do not release refrigerant during piping work for installation, servicing, reinstallation and during repairing a refrigeration parts. Take care of the liquid refrigerant, it may cause frostbite.

4. Installation work. It may need two people to carry out the installation work.

5. Do not install this appliance in a laundry room or other location where water may drip from the ceiling, etc.

10.1. Select The Best Location

Indoor Unit

• There should not be any heat source or steam near the unit.

• There should not be any obstacles blocking the air circulation.

• A place where air circulation in the room is good.

• A place where drainage can be easily done.

• 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.

• Recommended installation height for indoor unit shall be at least 2.5 m.

Outdoor Unit

• If an awning is built over the unit to prevent direct sunlight or rain, be careful that heat radiation from the condenser is not obstructed.

• There should not be any animal or plant which could be affected by hot air discharged.

• Keep the spaces indicated by arrows from wall, ceiling, fence or other obstacles.

• Do not place any obstacles which may cause a short circuit of the discharged air.

• If piping length is over the rated length, additional refrigerant should be added as shown in the table.

10.2.1. How To Fix Installation Plate

The mounting wall is strong and solid enough to prevent it from the vibration.

The centre of installation plate should be at more than 485 mm at right and left of the wall. The distance from installation plate edge to ceiling should more than 75mm. From installation plate left edge to unit's left side is 75 mm. From installation plate right edge to unit's right is 85 mm.

For left side piping, piping connection for liquid should be about 5 mm from this line.

2. Drill the piping plate hole with ø70 mm hole-core drill.

• Line according to the left and right side edge of the installation plate. The meeting point of the extended line is the centre of the hole. Another method is by putting measuring tape at position as shown in the diagram above. The hole centre is obtained by measuring the distance namely 107 mm and 58 mm for left and right edge of the installation plate respectively.

• Drill the piping hole at either the right or the left and the

hole should be slightly slanted to the outdoor side.

10.2.2. To Drill A Hole In The Wall And Install A Sleeve Of Piping

1. Insert the piping sleeve to the hole.

2. Cut the sleeve until it extrudes about 15 mm from the wall.

Caution

When the wall is hollow, please be sure to use the sleeve for tube ass’y to prevent dangers caused by mice biting the connecting cable.

3. Fix the bushing to the sleeve.

4. Finish by sealing the sleeve with putty or caulking compound at the final stage.

For left side piping, piping connection for gas should be about 55 mm from this line.

For left side piping, piping connection cable should be about 750 mm from this line.

1. Mount the installation plate on the wall with 5 screws or more. (If mounting the unit on the concrete wall, consider using anchor bolts.)

• Always mount the installation plate horizontally by aligning the marking-off line with the thread and using a level gauge.

10.2.3. Installing The Ventilation Hose

Carry out work carefully not to scratch the surface of the mobile panel.
