APPLICATION DATA SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ¡ Please read these “Safety Precautions” first then accurately execute the installation work. ¡ Though the precautionary points indicated herein are divided under two headings, WARNING and CAUTION , those points which are related to the strong possibility of an installation done in error resulting in death or serious injury are listed in the WARNING section.
6.5.1 Installation of indoor unit (a) Caution for installation The system should be applied to places as households, residences and the like. The equipment shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations. The connection to the fixed wiring of the mains supply must be made via a double pole isolating switch with a contact gap of at least 3mm in each pole.

6.5.3 Installation of outdoor unit (1) Selection of installation location (Please install with the customer’s consent in a location that follows the conditions listed below.) Where the following installation space is available, and where air does not gather. Where rain and sunlight do not directly hit the unit, and where there is enough air circulation. Also, where the unit cannot be buried by snow.
Use the power supply wires specified below. Different wires may cause heat generation and fire. Do not to use unspecified wires. Never bundle, wind or treat the power wires. Otherwise, heat or fire may be generated. SCM45ZA SCM45YA Use cables for interconnection wiring to avoid loosening of the wires.

Don't touch • LED 1, 3 (Light display for each room - ON when there is a serial signal being electrical parts in the control box for 5 minutes after the unit is Green)
6.6.2 Servicing (1) Evacuation The evacuation is an procedure to purge impurities ..noncondensable gas, air, moisture from the refrigerant equipment by using a vacuum pump. Since the refrigerant R22 is very insoluble in water, even a small amount of moisture left in the refrigerant equipment will freeze, causing what is called water clogging.
