• Carry out the specified installation work after taking account of strong winds, typhoons or earthquakes. Improper installation work may result in the equipment falling and causing accidents. • Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is provided for this unit and that all electrical work is carried out by an authorized personnel according to local laws and regulations and this installa- tion manual.
NOTE • Install the indoor and outdoor units, power supply wiring and connecting wires at least 3.5ft. away from televisions or radios in order to prevent image interference or noise. (Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 3.5ft. may not be sufficient enough to eliminate the noise.) •...

2. Items to be checked at time of delivery * Also review the “SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS” Items to be checked Check Did you explain about operations while showing the operation manual to your customer? Did you hand the operation manual over to your customer? Points for explanation about operations The items with WARNING and...
(2) Consider whether the place where the unit will be installed can support the full weight of the unit, and reinforce it with boards and beams, etc. if needed before proceeding with the installation. Also, reinforce the place to prevent vibration and noise before installing. (The installation pitch can be found on the paper pattern for installation (3), so refer to it when con- sidering the necessity for reinforcing the location.) (3) The indoor unit may not be directly installed on the wall.

(5) Point the pipe in the direction it will be passed out. For bottom-right and back-right piping (Refer to Fig. 6) • Wrap the drain hose and the refrigerant piping together with the insulat- ing tape (4) so that the drain hose is below the refrigerant piping. For left, bottom-left, and back-left piping •...

(6) Hook the indoor unit onto the installation panel. (Refer to Fig. 9) • Placing buffering material between the wall and the indoor unit at this time will make work easier. For bottom-right and back-right piping • Pass the drain hose and the refrigerant piping to the wall. (7) Pass power supply wiring and ground wiring threaded through conduit (For connecting the con- duit to the unit, see “8-1 HOW TO CONNECT WIRINGS”), and remote controller wiring through the wiring guide in through the back of the indoor unit and to the front.
I When screwing in the indoor unit • Remove the front grill. (Refer to Fig. 7) • Secure the indoor unit to the installation panel (1) with the securing screws (6). (Refer to Fig. 11) 5. REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK 〈For refrigerant piping of outdoor units, see the installation manual attached to the outdoor unit.〉 〈Execute heat insulation work completely on both sides of the gas piping and the liquid piping.
CAUTION Be sure to insulate any field piping all the way to the piping connection inside the unit. Any exposed piping may cause condensate or burns if touched. 6. DRAIN PIPING WORK (1) Install the drain piping. (Refer to Fig. 16) •...

[ PRECAUTIONS ] 1. Use round crimp-style terminals for connecting wires to the power supply terminal block. (Refer to Fig. 23) If unavailable, observe the following points when wiring. • Do not connect wires of different gauge to the same power supply terminal. (Looseness in the connection may cause overheating.) •...
