6.4. Installing the wall hook bracket
(1) Install the wall hook bracket so that it is correctly positioned horizontally and vertically.
If the wall hook bracket is titled, water will drip to the fl oor.
(2) Install the wall hook bracket so that it is strong enough to support the weight of the unit.
• Fasten the wall hook bracket to the wall with 5 or more screws through the holes near
the outer edge of the bracket.
• Check that there is no rattle at the wall hook bracket.

Install the wall-hook bracket both horizontally and vertically aligned.
Misaligned installation may cause water leakage.
6.5. Forming the drain hose and pipe
• Insert drain hose and drain cap securely. Drain should slope down to avoid water leakage.
• When inserting the drain hose, no other material than water should be applied.
Application of other material than water will cause deterioration of the hose, and may
cause water leakage.
• After you remove a drain hose, be sure to attach the drain cap.
• When you secure the piping and drain hose with tape, arrange the drain hose so that
it is at the bottom of the piping.
• For drain hose piping in low temperature environment, you need to apply freeze
protection to prevent a frozen drain hose.
After cooling operation is performed in low temperature environment, (when outdoor
temperature under 0 °C,) water in the drain hose could be frozen. Frozen drain water
will block the water fl ow in the hose, and may cause water leakage at the indoor unit.
[Rear piping, Right piping, Bottom piping]
• Install the indoor unit piping in the direction of the wall hole and bind the drain hose
and pipe together with vinyl tape.
• Install the piping so that the drain hose is at the bottom.
• Wrap the pipes of the indoor unit that are visible from the outside with decorative tape.

Insert the drain hose and drain cap into the drain port, making sure that it comes
in contact with the back of the drain port, and then mount it. If the drain hose is not
connected properly, leaking will occur.
• For left piping and left rear piping, align the marks on the wall hook bracket and shape
the connection pipe.
• Bend the connection piping at the bend radius of 100 mm or more and install no more
than 35 mm from the wall.
• After passing the indoor piping and drain hose through the wall hole, hang the indoor unit
on the hooks at the top and bottom of the wall hook bracket.

• Insert the spacer, etc. between the indoor unit and the wall hook bracket and separate
the bottom of the indoor unit from the wall.

• After hooking the indoor unit to the top hook, hook the fi ttings of the indoor unit to the 2
bottom hooks while lowering the unit and pushing it against the wall.
6.6. Flare connection (Pipe connection)
Tighten the flare nuts with a torque wrench using the specified tightening method.
Otherwise, the fl are nuts could break after a prolonged period, causing refrigerant to leak
and generate hazardous gas if the refrigerant comes into contact with a fl ame.
6.6.1. Flaring
Use special pipe cutter and fl are tool designed for R410A pipework.
(1) Cut the connection pipe to the necessary length with a pipe cutter.
(2) Hold the pipe downward so that cuttings will not enter the pipe and remove any burrs.
(3) Insert the fl are nut (always use the fl are nut attached to the indoor unit(s) and outdoor
unit respectively) onto the pipe and perform the fl are processing with a fl are tool. Use
the special R410A fl are tool, or the conventional fl are tool. Leakage of refrigerant may
result if other fl are nuts are used.
(4) Protect the pipes by pinching them or with tape to prevent dust, dirt, or water from
entering the pipes.
