1. Installing the Mounting Plate
Select a location to install the mounting plate according to the indoor
unit location and piping direction.
Adjust the mounting plate horizontally with a horizontal ruler or
plumb line.

Insert the plastic plugs in the hole, then fix the mounting plate with
tapping screws.

toward outside.
Install a sleeve through the wall hole to keep the wall tidy and clean.
