•Drain hose should point downward for easy drain flow. Do not twist the drain pipe, leave it sticking out or waving around, do not immerse the end in water. If an extension drain hose is connected to the drain pipe, make sure to be thermally insulated when passing it through the indoor unit.

•When the piping is directed to the right, piping, power cable and drain hose should be thermally insulated and fixed at the rear of the unit.

Piping Connection:

a.Connect indoor unit pipes with two wrenches. Pay special attention to the torque allowed as shown below to prevent the pipes, connectors and flare nuts from being deformed and damaged.

b.At first fingers-tighten them, then use the wrenches.

NOTE: do not cut the piping if the connection pipe is over requirement.

Cabinet

•Outdoor Unit

1)Remove the access door from the unit by loosening the screw. Connect the wires to the terminals on the control board individually in accordance with the indoor unit connection.

2)Secure the power connecting cord on the control board with cable clamp.

3)Refit the access door in the original position and tighten the screw.

4)Use a recognized circuit breaker for 24K model between the power source and the unit. A disconnecting device to adequately disconnect all supply lines must be fitted.

OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION

1. Install Drain Port and Drain Hose

The condensate drains from the outdoor unit when the unit operates in heating mode. In order not to disturb your neighbours and protect the environment, install a drain port and a drain hose to direct the condensate water. Just install the drain port on the chassis of the outdoor unit, then connect a drain hose to the port as shown in the figure on the right.

2. Install and Fix Outdoor Unit

Fix with bolts and nuts tightly on a flat and strong floor. If installed on the wall or roof, make sure to

fix the supporter well to prevent it from shaking due to serious vibration or strong wind.

Recommend: it's better to insert rubber pad

(optional part) under the ODU foot in order to absorb the vibration during running.

3.Outdoor Unit Piping Connection

•Remove the valve caps from the 2-way and 3-way valve.

•Connect the pipes to the 2-way and 3-way valves separately according to the required torque.

AIR PURGING

Air containing moisture remaining in the refrigeration cycle may cause a malfunction on the compressor. After connecting the indoor and outdoor units, evacuate air and moisture from refrigerant cycle using a vacuum pump, as shown below.

Note: Because the system pressure is high and also to protect the environment, be sure not to discharge the refrigerant to the air directly.
