Page 5: How Air Split Conditioners Work
HOW AIR SPLIT CONDITIONERS WORK COOLING MODE WALL MOUNTED The compressor (6) in the external unit compresses the refrigerant into a high-temperature, high- pressure gas. When this gas flows along the cooling fins of the condenser (7), heat is exuded and the gas condenses into a liquid, which is then led to the evaporator (1) in the indoor unit. - Page 6 ALTERNATIVE WAYS TO MOUNT CEILING MOUNTED FLOOR MOUNTED...

Page 14: Start Of Season
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dirt. If the dust filter is very dirty, it may be washed in lukewarm water with a very small amount of neutral detergent. Rinse well and allow to dry completely (not in direct sunlight or near a source of heat). Reverse the filter removal procedure and push back the clean filter. -
Page 15: Installation Guide
INSTALLATION GUIDE SAFETY • Only qualified personnel should install this appliance. • This installation manual is intended for use by individuals possessing adequate backgrounds and qualifications in electrical, electronic, refrigerant and mechanical fields. • Any attempt to install or repair the appliance may result in personal injury and property damage. - Page 16 INDOOR UNIT POSITION AND SPACING The air inlet and outlet vent should be away from any obstruction, ensuring that there is good airflow through the whole air- conditioned space. Select a position where the condensing water can be easily drained out, and the indoor unit can be easily connected to outdoor unit.
- Page 17 INSTALL DIMENSION REQUIREMENTS FOR OUTDOOR UNIT Position Minimum Clearance Left 50 cm Right 50 cm Back 30-50 cm Front 200 cm OUTDOOR UNIT POSITION A convenient position, dry and well ventilated, outside of direct sunlight or strong winds, which is not on a flood line and where noise and airflow does not cause interference or inconvenience.

- Page 20 • Once the indoor unit is hung in place, the wiring and pipework can be connected. If space is tight you may need to fit the copper pipes, drain pipes, control and electrical wires before you permanently hang the indoor unit The installation steps for embedded style are basically the same with the hanging style, but remove the left and right panels of the indoor unit and then embed half of the unit body into the ceiling showing up only the back panel and top panel.
- Page 21 ALTERNATIVE CEILING MOUNTING METHOD USING LIFTING BOLTS Matching the structure of the ceiling, set the thread pitch based on the size of this unit as bellow WOODEN STRUCTURES STEEL SKELETON STRUCTURES Place the square bar on the girders and install the lifting bolts. Set directly on the supporting steel Different type of bolts or inserts can be also used.
- Page 22 FLOOR / WALL MOUNTING For floor or wall mounting use embedded or expandable bolts strong enough for the type of wall. Install the unit with the control panel facing up similar to a radiator and make sure it is correctly aligned and level.

- Page 29 NOTES: The copper pipe used in the refrigeration lines is very soft, high pressure copper and prone to get damaged if not handled correctly. Try to avoid getting it bent or stretched. Always use foam protectors (sleeve) and a plastic ring before getting the pipes through the wall. Those will help prevent damage to the pipes.
