How to Install the Wireless Remote Controller Receiver

8-14. Common to All Models

1. Warnings about Installation of Receivers
The wireless remote controller 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. Warnings about Installing Remote Controllers
(1)
If a remote controller is to be operated from a remote controller 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 controller 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 controller 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.
3. Things to remember when wired and wireless remote controllers are installed at the same time
Two remote controllers can be used to controller the unit if the wireless remote controller kit is installed at the same time as the
wired remote controller.
(Up to 2 remote controllers [a wireless remote controller kit and the wired remote controller] can be installed.)
When using 2 remote controllers, one or more units can be operated by the remote controllers.
NOTE
1. When wiring remote controllers, be sure to double-check the terminal numbers of the indoor unit before connecting them
so there are no mistakes in the wiring. (Damage will occur if high voltage [e.g. supply voltage] is applied)
2. It is not possible to use more than one wireless remote controller kit with one indoor unit.
(A receiver located separately can be used at the same time)
If both a wireless and a wired remote controller are to be installed and used at the same time, one of them must be set up
3.
as the sub remote controller.
If the wired remote controller is to be the sub remote controller, change the wired remote controller to the sub remote controller.
If the wireless remote controller is to be the secondary, turn the #3 switch on the wireless receiver (operation panel)
from OFF to ON. (see next page)
When 1 indoor unit is operated by 2 remote controllers:
* Either of the remote controllers can be set to main/sub.
