8-16. How to Install the Wireless Remote Controller Receiver
1. Warning about Installation of Receivers
The wireless remote uses a very weak infrared light for its signal, which can result in the signal not being received
because of the following influences, so take care in where the unit is installed.
• Inverter or rapid-start type fluorescent lights. (Models without glow lamps)
• Plasma display or LCD televisions.
• Direct sunlight or other sources of bright light.
2. Warning about Installing Remote Controls
(1) If a remote control is to be operated from a remote control holder that is hung on a wall, turn on the lights in the
room as well as any electrical appliances and then check to make sure the air conditioner works with the remote
control in the location where it will be installed. If it works, continue with installation.
(2) If the air conditioner is to be switched from the main sensor to a remote control sensor, pay attention to the
following when installing.
• Locate where no warm or cold drafts will affect it.
• Locate in a place free from direct sunlight.
• Locate where it will not be affected by any other heat/cold source.
