Operation for comfort and economy
Do not overcool the room.
This is not good for health and
waste eiectricity.
Keep blinds or curtains
closed.
Do not let sunshine enter
the room directly when the air
conditioner is in operation.
Keep the room temperature uniform.
Adjust the vertical and horizontal
airflow direction to ensure a
uniform temperature in the room.
mm
Make sure that the doors and Clean the air filter regularly,
windows are shut tight. Blockages in the air filter reduce
Avoid opening doors and windows *1’®
as much as possible to keep the dehumidrfying effects. Clean at
cool air in the room.
(See page 8).
Ventilate the room
occasionally.
Since windows are kept closed, it
is a good idea to open them and
ventilate the room now and then.

conditioner for purposes
other than cooling the room.
Do not use the air conditioner for
other purposes such as drying
clothes, preserving foods, keeping
animals, or cultivating vegetables.
Do not block the air intake
and outlet vents.
This causes lowered performance
and irregular operation. Do not
insert sticks or other objects into
these vents as it is dangerous to
touch the electric components and
the fan.
Select the most appropriate
temperature.
Take care to adjust the temperature
to suit the conditions. Rooms
occupied by infants, the elderly,
or the sick should be kept at an
appropriate temperature.

Annual check
* After long-term usage of room air conditioners, dust
and dirt will accumulate inside, lowering the
performance. This may cause the generation of
odour or may impede the drainage of the dehumidifying
water.
* Besides regular cleaning of the air conditioner, a
separate annual check Is also recommended
(chargeable). Please request your dealer to carry out
these checks.

Please read the following before installing the Air Conditioner.
Select the Best Location for the most efficient cooling.
Location
® The air conditioner should be installed in a dry place where there are no draughts.
• Condensation from the air conditioner must be drained to an appropriate location.
• Do not install in a location where flammable gas leaks are a possibility.
• Using in locations where the air is salty such as beside the sea or near hot spas, or
where sulphurous gas is generated, may lead to a malfunction. Please consult your dealer.
• Ensure that the wall is strong enough to support the unit.
How to Instal l
There should not be any obstacles surrounding the unit.
Prepare the installation hole slightly bigger than cabinet size.
(FRONT VIEW)
1) PREPARE CHASSIS
• Remove chassis locking bracket by loosening
the screw.
• Slide the chassis out from the cabinet.
2) Place cabinet into opening and secure it by wood
screws or nails.
• The cabinet should be installed tilted slightly
lower to the rear for nescessary condensate
drainage. (Max. 10mm)
3) Slide Chassis into the cabinet which installed the
above 2).
• The tubings or ducting part should not be touched
with the cabinet.
4) Lock the chassis into cabinet by chassis locking

Electrical work
Noise considerations
• Always use at the rated voltage.
• Some installation locations may require installation of
a shortcircuit breaker.
• A16 Ampere (CW-C200SR, CW-A200SR), 20 Ampere
(CW-C240SR, CW-A240SR) time delay fuse or circuit
breaker is required.
• Nominal cross sectional area of power supply wire
must be 3 core x 1.5 mm^ {CW-C200SR, CW-A200SR)
and 3 core x 2.5 mm^ (CW-C240SR, CW-A240SR) or
above.
• The power supply must be from an independent circuit.
® All electrical installation must be made in
accordance with local wiring and safety regulations
wherever applicable.
• Please consult your dealer concerning installation
requirements.
Transferring
When repositioning the air conditioner due to
renovations, or when transferring to a different
location, the removal and réinstallation of the unit
requires an additional service charge. Please consult
your dealer before moving.
Rernqval of the grilie
1) REMOVE AIR FILTER
2) REMOVE FRONT GRILLE
• Loosen the screws at the right, left and centre of the
grille.
• Press the side of the cabinet firmly and at the same
time pull the corner of the grille forward to
unhook the tabs.
• Slide the grille upward to free the two tabs at the
top of the grille from slots at the top of the cabinet.
• Select an installation location that can support the
weight of the air conditioner and one that will not cause
increased operating noise and vibration.
• Ensure that airflow and noise from the rear side
of the unit (outdoors) when installed do not cause
inconvenience to neighbouring residents.
• Obstacles placed in front of the air outlet on the
rear side of the unit (outdoors), or covers placed
over it, cause excessive noise and a deterioration in
performance.
Drain water
To get the maximum cooling efficiency this air
conditioner is designed to splash the condensate
on the condenser coil.
This method is called “Slinger-Up System”. (For cooling
model only)
If the splashing sound annoys you, you can provide
an outside drain by using the following procedure
which may, however cause a small loss of
performance.
1. Slide out the chassis from the cabinet.
2. Remove the rubber plug from the body base plate.
(For cooling model only)
3. Install the drain pan prepared in the accessory kit to
the corner of the cabinet with 2 screws.
4. Connect the drain hose to the outlet on the drain pan
bottom.
5. Slide the chassis into its original place in the cabinet.
Note: Drain hose or tubing can be purchased locally to
satisfy your particular needs.
