● Do not touch or adjust any safety devices inside the indoor or outdoor units. All safety features, disengagement, and interlocks must be in place and functioning correctly before the equipment is put into operation. If these devices are improperly adjusted or tampered with in any way, a serious accident can occur.

Refrigerant Precautions To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, the following refrigerant precautions must be followed. ● As originally manufactured, this unit contains refrigerant installed by Johnson Controls. Johnson Controls uses only refrigerants that have been approved for use in the unit’s intended home country or market.

● Clamp electrical wires securely with a cable band after all wiring is connected to the terminal block. In addition, run wires securely through the wiring access channel. ● When installing the power lines, do not apply tension to the cables. Secure the suspended cables at regular intervals, but not too tightly.

● Proper handling of this unit requires two-people. Safe handling and installing the indoor unit requires the strength of two people. Mounting the unit alone may cause injury due to fall of the unit. Although the unit may be girded with steel banding, do not use it for transportation. Avoid contact with finned surfaces of the heat exchanger as sharp edges can cause severe injury to hands and fingers.
Before Installation Combination of Outdoor Unit and Indoor Unit The combination capacity of indoor unit against the outdoor unit is selected depending on the outdoor unit capacity. Refer to the "Installation and Maintenance Manual" for the outdoor unit to decide the required combination of indoor and outdoor units, and the combination unit capacity.
NOTICE The decorative panel, controller, and branch piping are optional accessories and are not included with the indoor unit. If necessary, please contact your contractor. 2. Do not insert or leave any foreign objects inside the indoor unit and verify that no foreign objects remain inside in the indoor unit before the installation and Test Run.

3. Select the installation location as follows: • Minimum Space • Down slope gradient for condensate piping: 1/25 to 1/100 Unit: inch (mm) It is recommended that the indoor unit be Minimum 3/8 (10) Clearance installed at 7.9 ft (2.4m) from floor level. 008 to 018 Type: 9-3/4 (248) 024 to 048 Type: 11-3/4 (298) NOTE:...
Installation Work Opening of False Ceiling and Location of Suspension Bolts 1. Determine the final location and installation orientation of the indoor unit with respect to the space allowed for piping, wiring, and maintenance access. 2. Then cut away the false ceiling area for the indoor unit installation and install suspension bolts. 3.
Working Procedure 1. Size the opening to the correct dimensions to Checking Scale for facilitate easy and repeated installation by using Dimension of Opening the pattern board (template). The template provided for the installation comes with a scale printed on a portion of the outer packaging.

3. Mounting Position of the Indoor Unit when optional parts are used (B) When the optional parts are used with the decorative panel, add the additional value (h) to the indoor unit mounting position (A) as shown below. When the calculated value is (-) minus, the unit mounting position is lower than the ceiling surface.
Page 17
5. Mounting the Indoor Unit • Hoist the indoor unit but do not apply any force against the condensate pan (the air outlet portions and the condensate pan portion). If there is insufficient access for a hoist, the work must be performed manually by two skilled installers.
7. Tighten the nuts on the suspension brackets after adjustments are completed. LockTite thread lock compound to the suspension bolts and nuts in order to prevent them from loosening. Adjust the indoor unit into correct position, using the scale of the pattern board (template). NOTE: While adjusting the clearance spacing between the indoor unit and the ceiling surface, keep the indoor unit level.
Refrigerant Piping Work Use the specified non-flammable refrigerant (HFC R410A) for the outdoor unit refrigerant cycle. Do not charge the unit with anything other than HFC R410A, such as hydrocarbon refrigerants (propane and Isobutene), oxygen, and other flammable gases (acetylene, ammonia, and so forth), or any poisonous gases when installing, maintaining and moving the unit.
Page 20
2. Use specific flare nut attached with the unit. 3. Verify that there are no scratches, burrs stuck to internal surfaces, or surface deformations at the flared opening. 4. Before tightening the flare nut, apply the (Field-Supplied) refrigerant oil in a thin layer over the flared part.
Condensate Piping Do not run condensate piping into underground areas near sanitary or sewage lines where toxic and corrosive gas can seep into the system. This creates a pathway for the flow of poisonous gas to penetrate inhabited areas. NOTICE ●...

c. Attach the factory-supplied hose clamp to the vinyl tape (white) attached to the condensate hose. The hose clamp shall be 13/16 inch (20mm) away from the end face of the condensate hose. Then tighten the hose clamp to make sure that it is approximately 1-1/8 inches (28mm) in length from the screw to the edge of the hose clamp as shown in the figure below.
Page 23
g. Installing Main Condensate Piping • Install the main condensate pipe on a downward slope to make sure that it is lower than each rising part of the condensate pipe from the indoor unit. • The size for main condensate pipe must be larger than VP30, the nominal diameter size of 1-3/16 inches (30mm) and, outer diameter 1-1/2 inches (38mm) according to the number of the connected indoor units.
Page 24
NOTICE ● Moisture which has discharged into the condensate pan and check for drainage in the heating season should be drained completely from the condensate pan. ● The heat exchanger is heated since a slight amount of refrigerant circulates inside the indoor unit during periods of stoppage.
Electrical Wiring ● All electrical work must be done as outlined in this manual and in accordance with this manual. Substandard work can result in fire and damage to the unit. ● Use specified cables between units and choose the cables correctly. If not, an electrical shock or fire may occur.
8.2.2 Details of Electrical Wiring Connection The electrical wiring capacity of the outdoor unit should be referred according to the "Installation and Maintenance Manual" for the outdoor unit. Adjusting the DIP switches may be required depending on the arrangement with the outdoor unit. Select wiring capacity according to the table 8.1.
Position of Electrical Wiring Connection ● The electrical wiring connection for the indoor unit is shown in Section 8.2.2. For details relating to the intermediate connections between the indoor unit and the decorative panel, refer to the "Installation and Maintenance Manual" for the 4-Way Cassette Decorative Panel. ●...
