5 Indoor Unit Installation

WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE

Install the unit in a solid location that can support the unit's
weight. If the chosen location cannot support the unit's
weight, or the installation is not done properly, the unit
may drop and cause serious injury and/or damage.
Before installing the indoor unit, refer to the label on the product box to
make sure that the model number of the indoor unit pairs with the model
number of the outdoor unit.
Step 1: Select installation location
Before installing the indoor unit, you must choose an appropriate location. The
following are standards that will help you choose an appropriate location for the
unit.

Proper installation locations meet the following standards:
—
Good air circulation
—
Convenient drainage of condensate
—
Noise from the unit will not disturb other people
—
Firm and solid foundation — the location will not vibrate
—
Strong enough to support the weight of the unit
—
A location at least three feet from all other electrical devices (e.g.,
TV, radio, computer)

DO NOT install unit in the following locations:
—
Near any source of heat, steam, or combustible gas
—
Near flammable items such as curtains or clothing
—
Near any obstacle that might block air circulation
—
Near the doorway
—
In a location subject to direct sunlight
Note about wall hole:
While choosing a location, be aware that you should leave ample room
for a wall hole (see Drill wall hole for connective piping step) for the
signal/power cable and refrigerant piping that connect the indoor and
outdoor units. The default position for all piping is the right side of the
indoor unit (while facing the unit). However, the unit can accommodate
piping to both the left and right.

Finishing the pipe and cable connections before mounting the indoor
unit on the wall. If the installation height is limited, 5cm (1.96in) from
the ceiling is allowable, but this can lower product performance. To
ensure enough space to install and remove the top air fi lter, keep at least
10cm (3.93in) or more from the ceiling.
I f back holder to prop up the unit necessary:
If connecting pipe and cable with front panel open, the minimum
distance from ceiling is 22cm (8.66in) or more, if connecting pipe and
cable without front panel (remove it) , the minimum distance from ceiling
is 11cm (4.33in) or more.
Step 2: Mounting plate installation
The mounting plate is the device on which you will mount the indoor unit.
1. Remove the screw that attaches the mounting plate to the back of the indoor
unit.
2. Place the mounting plate against the wall in a location that meets the
standards in the Select Installation Location step.(See Mounting Plate
Dimensions for detailed information on mounting plate sizes.)
3. Drill holes for mounting screws in places that:
—
have studs and can support the weight of the unit
—
correspond to screw holes in the mounting plate
4. Secure the mounting plate to the wall with the screws provided.
5. Make sure that mounting plate is fl at against the wall.
If the wall is made of brick, concrete, or similar material, drill 5mm-
diameter (0.2in-diameter) holes in the wall and insert the sleeve anchors
provided. Then secure the mounting plate to the wall by tightening the
screws directly into the clip anchors.
