2. INSTALLATION

2.1 Location

When selecting a position for your unit you should make sure the floor is flat and firm, and the room is well ventilated.
Avoid locating your unit near a heat source, e.g., stove, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight as it may increase the
electrical consumption. Extremely cold ambient temperatures may also cause the unit not to perform properly. This unit

is not designed for use in a garage or outdoor installation. Do not drape any covering over the unit.

When installing the unit, ensure that 4 inch of free space is left at both sides, 4 inch at the rear and 12 inch at the top of
the unit. This will allow cold air to circulate around the unit and improve the efficiency of the cooling process.
