SELECTING PROPER LOCATION FOR INSTALLATION

Decide the installation location based on the following condition and obtain the user's approval.
• Avoid a place that may disturb your neighbor. Noise may occur from the outdoor unit and the
discharged air may run into the neighborhood. (Be careful of the operation time in a residential
area)
• Install the outdoor unit on a hard and even area that can support its weight.
• Choose a flat place that rainwater does not settle or leak.
• Choose a place avoiding strong winds.
• Maintain sufficient space for repairs and service.
• Choose a place where you can easily connect the pipes and cables to the indoor unit.
• Make sure that the condensed water dripping from the drain hose runs out properly and safely.
• These products are not appropriate for installing in those places like shore and spa.
If you want to install them in such places, you should contact company.

• Choose a place where there is no direct sunlight.
• Choose a place where it could not come into contact with snow and rain.
• Choose a place where flammable gas does not leak.
• Choose a place where the indoor and outdoor unit can be connected with a pipe.
• Install the indoor unit away from any interfering sources such as radio, computer, stereo
equipment and also select the place where the electrical wiring work can be possible.
CAUTION
- Especially keep the unit at least 3m(118-1/8˝) away from the electrical equipment in an
area electromagnetic waves generated and install the protection tube to protect the
main power cable and communication cable.
- Make sure that there is no equipment electromagnetic waves generate.
If not, malfunction of the control system may occur due to the effect of the
electromagnetic wave. (For example: The remote control sensor of the indoor unit
may not be received well of electronic lighting style fluorescent lamps, such as
fluorescent lamps are in the same space when using a remote control.)
• Make sure to install the outdoor unit in a safe place where snowfall will not be
obstructed. The frame should be installed in a place where the air inlet and heat
exchanger of the unit are not buried in the snow.
• Ventilation system will be better installed for the case of the refrigerant leakage in a
closed room even if R410A is nonpoisonous and noninflammable refrigerant.
• Install the railing around the outdoor unit to prevent falling when the unit is installed at
high place of roof on the building.
• Avoid installing the units in places such as an exhaust pipe and ventilating opening
exposed to corrosive gas, oxides of sulfur, ammonia gas or sulfur gas herbicides.
(Corroding copper pipes or soldered parts may result in refrigerant leakage.)
