Before installation

CAUTION
Risk of injury from sharp edges!
▶ Wear protective gloves during installation.
CAUTION
Danger of burns!
During operation the pipes become hot.
▶ Make sure, that the pipes cooled down before touching them.
▶ Check the scope of delivery for damage.
▶ Check whether a hissing sound due to negative pressure can be
detected when opening the pipes of the indoor unit.
3.2

Requirements for installation location

▶ Observe minimum clearances ( Fig. 4 ).
IDU
▶ Do not install the indoor unit in a room in which open ignition sources
(for example: open flames, an operating wall mounted gas boiler or
an operating electric heating system) are in operation.
▶ The appliance can be installed in a room with a floor area of 4 m
if the installation height is at least 2.5 m. If the installation height is
lower, the floor area must be accordingly larger.
▶ The installation location must not be higher than 2000 m above
sea level.
▶ Keep the air inlet and air outlet clear of any obstacles to allow the air
to circulate freely. Otherwise bad performance and higher noise level
may occur.
▶ Keep TV, radio and similar appliances at least 1 m away from the
device and the remote control.
▶ Mount the indoor unit on a wall that absorbs vibrations.
Outdoor unit
▶ The outdoor unit must not be exposed to machine oil vapour,
hot spring vapour, sulphur gas, etc.
▶ Do not install the outdoor unit directly next to water or where it is
exposed to sea air.
▶ The outdoor unit must always be kept free of snow.
▶ There must be no disruption caused by extract air or operating noise.
▶ Air should be able to circulate freely around the outdoor unit,
but the appliance must not be exposed to strong wind.
▶ Condensate that forms during operation must be able to drain off
easily. Lay a drain hose if required. In cold regions, installation of a
drain hose is not advisable as it could freeze.
▶ Place the outdoor unit on a stable base.
3.3

Unit installation

NOTICE
Incorrect assembly can cause material damage.
If the unit is assembled incorrectly, it may fall off the wall.

Installing the indoor unit

▶ Open the box and lift the indoor unit out and up.
▶ Place the indoor unit with the moulded parts of the packaging
face down.
▶ Remove the mounting plate on the rear of the indoor unit.
▶ Determine the installation location, taking the minimum clearances
into consideration ( Fig. 2).
▶ Attach the mounting plate with a screw and wall plug via the centre
hole to the wall and align horizontally ( Fig. 4).
▶ Fasten the mounting plate with a further six screws and wall plugs so
that the the mounting plate lies flat on the wall.
▶ Drill wall outlet for the piping (wall outlet should be behind the indoor
unit as a recommendation  Fig. 5).
The markings [1] serves the positioning of the hole.
▶ Change the position of the condensate pipe if necessary ( Fig. 6).
The pipe fittings on the indoor unit are generally located behind the
indoor unit. We recommend extending the pipes before mounting the
indoor unit.
▶ Establish pipe connections as described in Chapter 3.4.

,
▶ Bend the piping in the required direction if necessary, and knock out
an opening on the side or underneath on the cover panel ( Fig. 8).
▶ Route the piping through the wall and attach the indoor unit to the
mounting plate ( Fig. 9).
▶ Additional mirror metal sheets are available for CLC8001i... T/S/R,
and must be attached at the designated points ( Fig. 10, [2]).
– Determine the position of the mirror metal sheets.
– Pull off adhesive foil.
– Match mirror metal sheets to the mirrored metal sheets that are
already installed [1].
If it is necessary to take the indoor unit off the mounting plate:
▶ Press against the marks on the bottom of the indoor unit, and pull the
indoor unit towards the front ( Fig. 11, [1]).
These marks are not visible on the coloured product types CLC8001i...
as a mirror metal sheet is attached at this point. The indoor unit can still
be removed from the wall in this manner by pressing at the
corresponding points.
1) Depending on the position of the pipes, either all 4 or only 3 mirror metal sheets
are required.
