SAFETY PRECAUTION

Read the safety precautions carefully before operating the unit.
G
The contents of this section are vital to ensure safety. Please pay special attention to the following sign.
G
!
WARNING ........ Incorrect methods of installation may cause death or serious injury.
!
CAUTION ......... Improper installation may result in serious consequence.
Be sure that the unit operates in proper condition after installation. Explain to customer the proper way of
operating the unit as described in the user's guide.
!
Please request your sales agent or qualiÀ ed technician to install your unit. Water leakage, short circuit or À re may occur if
G
you do the installation work yourself.
Please observe the instructions stated in the installation manual during the process of installation. Improper installation may
G
cause water leakage, electric shock and À re.
Make sure that the units are mounted at locations which are able to provide full support to the weight of the units. If not,
G
the units may collapse and impose danger.
Observe the rules and regulations of the electrical installation and the methods described in the installation manual when
G
dealing with the electrical work. Use power cables approved by the authorities of your country.
Be sure to use the speciÀ ed wire for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. Please ensure that the connections are tight
G
after the conductors of the wire are inserted into the terminals. Improper insertion and loose contact may cause over-heating
and À re.
Please use the speciÀ ed components for installation work. Otherwise, the units may collapse or water leakage, electric shock
G
and À re may occur.
Be sure to use the speciÀ ed piping set for R410A. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.
G
When installing or removing an air conditioner, do not allow air or moisture to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise,
G
pressure in the refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high so that a rupture may be caused.
Be sure to ventilate fully if a refrigerant gas leak while at work. If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with À re, a poisonous
G
gas may occur.
After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage. If the refrigerant gas
G
leaks into the room, coming into contact with À re in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.
Unauthorized modiÀ cations to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualiÀ ed air
G
conditioner technician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and À re, etc.
!
A circuit breaker or fuse (20A time delay) must be installed. Without a circuit breaker or fuse the danger of electric shock
G
exists.
A main switch with a contact gap of more than 3mm has to be installed in the power supply line to the outdoor unit.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is Á ammable gas. The outdoor unit may
G
catch À re if Á ammable gas leaks around it.
Please ensure smooth Á ow of water when installing the drain hose.
G
Piping shall be suitable supported with a maximum spacing of 1m between the supports.

Installation of Mounting Plate, Wall Penetration and Installation of Protection Pipe
CAUTION
!
The draining of the water container inside the indoor unit can be done from the left.
G
Therefore the mounting plate must be À xed horizontally or slightly tilted towards the
side of drain hose. Otherwise, condensed water may overÁ ow the water container.
Direct Mounting On The Wall
Please use hidden beams in the wall to hold the mounting plate.
