Installation
Installation of the Housing
Step 1
Remove the air conditioner from its packaging and
slide the air conditioner out of it's housing.
Step 2
Prepare the hole in the wall so that the bottom of the
housing is well supported, the top has minimum
clearance and the air inlet louvers have clearance as
shown. Holes from the outside through to the cavity
should be sealed. The housing should slope down
towards the rear by about 5mm to allow water
formed during operation to drain.
Step 3
Install the housing into the wall and secure. Ensure
the foam seals are not damaged. Flash, seal or fill
gaps around the inside and outside to provide
satisfactory appearance and protection against the
weather, insects and rodents.
Installations of the unit into the Housing
1. Slide the unit into the housing until it is firmly
against the rear of the housing. Care is required
to ensure the foam sealing strips on the housing
remain in position.
2. Connect the air conditioner to the power and coil
excess cord length beneath the air conditioner
base or control box.
3. Engage the Chassis Lock into the bottom housing
rail and secure to the base with the screw
provided.
4. Remove the front panel from its carton and plastic
bag and fit as per the Operating Instruction.
5. Switch unit on. Check for operation of the unit and
check for vibration in the installation.
6. Fit the drain chute to the housing and run a drain
line to a suitable location if required.
