2. SELECT THE OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION LOCATION
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back.
WARNING
Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
1. Install the unit once you have checked that the installation location matches the following conditions.
A location with sufficient ventilation.
Possibly a location that is sheltered from rain or direct sunlight and is well-ventilated so that hot and cool air does not build up.
A location where the area around the discharge is not exposed to animals or plants which could adversely affect the release of hot or cool air from the unit.
A location where the discharge and operation noise will not be a nuisance to the neighbours.
A location that can support the product's weight or vibrations and secured for horizontal installation wherever possible.
A location that does not obstruct the air discharge or intake.
A location where there is no danger of flammable or corrosive gas leaks.
A location that provides space for installation and service.
A location that allows the tube and cable length fixture for internal and external connections.
It may need two or more people to carry out the installation work.
2. Refer to the diagram below for the installation location which is exposed to strong wind.
If a strong wind of more than 5 m/sec blows to the area directly in front of the discharge, the outdoor unit's air flow is reduced and the outflow may re-enter
(short circuit) causing the following outcome:
"Reduced capacity", "Increased frost formation during heating" or "Operation stopped due to increased pressure".
Should an exceptionally strong wind blow to the area directly in front of the discharge of the outdoor unit; there is the risk of damage due to the fan's
high-speed reverse rotation.
If the direction of the prevailing wind is known when operating the unit, place the unit at an appropriate angle to the wind's direction so that the discharge
faces towards a building or a wall.
3. If installing at locations prone to snowfall, install the unit as high as possible with suitable roofing which shelters the unit from snow.
4. Avoid installing the unit in locations where there are petroleum products (such as machine oil), saline content (such as coastal areas), sulphurous gas and where
high frequency noise is generated.
5. Place the indoor and outdoor unit, power cords and indoor/outdoor unit connection cables at a minimum distance of 1 meter or more away from televisions
and radios. This is to avoid interference to picture and/or sound.
(However, depending on the electromagnetic waves, noise interference may still occur even with the 1 meter separation.)
6. For restaurants and kitchens, avoid installing at locations which draws oil and steam.
Plastic parts can deteriorate from droplets of oil and steam or it can cause falling parts or water leakage.
7. Avoid installing at the location where cutting oil mist or iron powder is present.
8. If there is an immense voltage fluctuation due to the location's problem, ensure to split the power supply.
9. When installing the product in a place where it will be affected by typhoon or strong wind such as wind blowing between buildings, including the rooftop of a
building and a place where there is no building in surroundings, fix the product with an overturn prevention wire, etc.
10. Ensure to assign several people or use a mechanical lift, etc. to transport the unit.
