Requirements for installation site

▶ Observe minimum clearances ( Figs. 2 to 4).
Indoor unit
▶ 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 installation site 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 and similar appliances at least 1 m away from the
unit and the remote control.
▶ Mount the indoor unit on a wall that absorbs vibrations.
▶ Take minimum room area into account.

wall and level out ( Fig. 8).
▶ Fasten the mounting plate with a further four screws and wall plugs so
that the the mounting plate lies flat on the wall.

element, and mount the filter element again.
If it is necessary to take the indoor unit off the mounting plate:
▶ Pull the underside of the casing down in the area of the two recesses
and pull the indoor unit forwards ( Fig. 15).
