NOTE ABOUT WALL HOLE:
If there is no fixed refrigerant piping:
While choosing a location, be aware that you
should leave ample room for a wall hole (see

for the signal 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.
Refer to the following diagram to ensure
proper distance from walls and ceiling:
15cm (5.9in) or more

Step 2: Attach mounting plate to wall

the indoor unit.
Secure the mounting plate to the wall with
the screws provided. Make sure that mounting
plate is flat against the wall.
