• Be sure to install the unit in a sturdy, level surface to prevent rattling noises during
operation. (Fig. 4-1)

Weight-bearing capacity
• Make sure that the length of the foundation bolt is within 30 mm of the bottom
surface of the base.
• Secure the base of the unit firmly with four-M10 foundation bolts in sturdy locations.
Installing the outdoor unit
• Do not block the vent. If the vent is blocked, operation will be hindered and break-
down may result.
• In addition to the unit base, use the installation holes on the back of the unit to
attach wires, etc., if necessary to install the unit. Use self-tapping screws (ø5
mm or less) and install on site.
Warning:
• The unit must be securely installed on a structure that can sustain its weight.
If the unit is mounted on an unstable structure, it may fall down and cause
damage or injuries.
• The unit must be installed according to the instructions in order to minimize
the risk of damage from earthquakes, typhoons, or strong winds. An incor-
rectly installed unit may fall down and cause damage or injuries.
5.1. Precautions for devices that use R410A refrigerant
• Refer to section 1.5. for precautions not included below on using air con-
ditioners with R410A refrigerant.
• Use ester oil, ether oil, alkylbenzene oil (small amount) as the refrigeration oil
applied to the flared sections.
• Use C1220 copper phosphorus, for copper and copper alloy seamless pipes,
to connect the refrigerant pipes. Use refrigerant pipes with the thicknesses
specified in the table to the below. Make sure the insides of the pipes are
clean and do not contain any harmful contaminants such as sulfuric com-
pounds, oxidants, debris, or dust.
Warning:
When installing or moving the air conditioner, use only the specified refriger-
ant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not mix it with any other refriger-
ant and do not allow air to remain in the lines. Air enclosed in the lines can
cause pressure peaks resulting in a rupture and other hazards.

Flared connections
• This unit has flared connections on each indoor unit and branch box and outdoor
unit sides.
• Remove the valve cover of the outdoor unit, then connect the pipe.
• Refrigerant pipes are used to connect the branch box and outdoor unit.
