SELECTION OF INSTALLATION PLACE

• The air conditioner must be installed in a location that can support the weight of the unit
effectively.
If the unit is not installed on a foundation that can support its weight effectively, the unit may fall down,
resulting in possible human injury.
• Where required ensure that the units installation is sufficient enough to withstand against an
earthquake.
An insufficient installation could result in the unit falling, causing possible human injury.
• Install the air conditioner at a minimum height of 2.5 m from the floor.
Do not insert your hands or others into the unit while the air conditioner is operating.
Do not install the air conditioner in a location subject to a risk of exposure to a combustible gas.
• If a combustible gas leaks and stays around the unit, a fire may occur.
Upon approval of the customer, install the air conditioner in a place that satisfies the following
conditions.
• Place where the unit can be installed horizontally.
• Place where a sufficient servicing space can be ensured for safety maintenance and check.
• Place where drained water will not cause any problem.
Avoid installing in the following places.
• Place exposed to air with high salt content (seaside area), or place exposed to large quantities of sulfide gas
(hot spring). (Should the unit be used in these places, special protective measures are needed.)
• Place exposed to oil, vapor, oil smoke or corrosive gas.
• Place where organic solvent is used nearby.
• Place close to a machine generating high frequency.
• Place where the discharged air blows directly into the window of the neighboring house. (For outdoor unit)
• Place where noise of the outdoor unit is easily transmitted. (When installing the air conditioner on the
boundary with the neighbor, pay due attention to the level of noise.)
• Place with poor ventilation.
(Before air ducting work, check whether value of air volume, static pressure and duct resistance are correct.)
Installation space
Secure the specified space in the figure for installation and servicing.
Ensure there is sufficient space to install the unit and to perform maintenance work as and when required.
