Carefully read through the procedures of proper
installation before starting installation work.
The sales agent should inform customers regarding
the correct operation of installation.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
Read the safety precautions carefully before operating the unit.
The contents of this section are vital to ensure safety. Please pay special attention to the following sign.
WARNING
!
CAUTION
!
A circuit breaker must be installed in the house distribution box for the direct connected power supply wire to the outdoor unit.
In case of other installations a main switch with a contact gap or more than 3.5mm has to be installed. Without a
circuit breaker, the danger of electric shock exists.
Please request your sales agent or qualified technician to install your unit. Water leakage, short circuit or fire may occur if you
do the installation work yourself.

Tools Needed For Installation Work
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 users guide.
Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualified air conditioner
technician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and fire, etc.
Be sure to connect the earth wire from the power supply wire to the outdoor unit and between the outdoor and indoor
unit. Improper earthing may cause electric shock.
Please observe the instructions stated in the installation manual during the process of installation. Improper installation may
cause water leakage, electric shock and fire.
Make sure that the units are mounted at locations which are able to provide full support to the weight of the units. If not, 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
dealing with the electrical work. Use power cables approved by the authorities of your country.
Be sure to use the specified wire for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. Please ensure that the connections are tight
after the conductors of the wire are inserted into the terminals. Improper insertion and loose contact may cause over-heating
and fire.
Please use the specified components for installation work. Otherwise, the units may collapse or water leakage, electric shock
and fire may occur.
Be sure to use the specified piping set for R-410A. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults.
When installing or removing an air conditioner, only specified refrigerant (R410A) shall be allowed, do not allow air or moisture
to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, 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 fire, a poisonous
gas may occur.
After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage. If the refrigerant gas leaks
into the room, coming into contact with fire in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is flammable gas. The outdoor unit may catch fire if flammable
gas leaks around it.
Please ensure smooth flow of water when installing the drain hose.
An IEC approved power cord should be used. Power cord type: NYM.
THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE
(Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation).
WARNING
!
The Outdoor unit must be mounted at a location which can support heavy weight. Otherwise, noise and vibration will increase.
CAUTION
!
Do not expose the unit under direct sunshine or rain. Besides, ventilation must be good and clear of obstruction.
The air blown out of the unit should not point directly to animals or plants.
The clearances of the unit from top, left, right and front are specified in figure below. At least 3 of the above sides must be open
air.
Be sure that the hot air blown out of the unit and noise do not disturb the neighbourhood.
Do not install at a location where there is flammable gas, steam, oil and smoke.
The location must be convenient for water drainage.
Place the Outdoor unit and its connecting cord at least 1m away from the antenna or signal line of television, radio or telephone.
This is to avoid noise interference.

1. Proper place for installation
1.1 Outdoor unit
(1) Keep the space around the unit for maintenance and avoiding the effects of hindrance for normal ventilation of the unit.
(2) The northern or eastern side of the building is better to install. At the installation on the southern or western side unavoidably, some blind
should be set up for the unit. (In this case, the blind must not obstruct the ventilation of the unit.)
(3) Youd better not put the unit at a place where is full of dirt and at a place where is wet in the rain.
(4) Place as near as possible to the indoor unit.
(5) Install the unit in a stable place to minimize vibration or noise.
(6) After arranging the cords and pipes, secure them in place.
WARNING
If you cannot attach the side cover due to the connecting cord, press the connecting cord in direction to the front panel
to fix it.
Be sure that the hooks of the side cover is fixed in certainly. Otherwise water leakage may occur and this causes short
circuit or faults.
The connecting cord should not touch to service valve and pipes. (It becomes high temperature in heating operation.)
This appliance must be earthed.
Power is supplied through outdoor unit, do not connect power source to indoor unit.
Wiring of The Outdoor Unit
Please remove the side cover for wire connection.
!
WARNING
!
The naked part of the wire core should be 10 mm and fix it to the terminal tightly. Then try to pull the individual wire to check if the contact is
tight. Improper insertion may burn the terminal.
Be sure to use only power cables approved from the authorities in your country. For example in Germany: Cable type: NYM 3x1.5mm
2
. (fuse
= 16A time delay)
Please refer to the installation manual for wire connection to the terminals of the units. The cabling must meet the standards of electrical
installation.
There is a AC voltage of 220-240V between the L and N terminals. Therefore, before servicing, be sure to remove the plug from the AC outlet
or switch off the main switch.
2. In the electrical installation a separator with a contact gap of more than
3mm has to be installed. During cleaning or service the set has to be
switched off with this separator.
3. Installation procedure and notice
Especially, the selection of installation place need great care for the
split type air conditioner, because it is very difficult to move from place
to place after the first installation.
3.1 Wiring
(1) Connect the electrical wiring between the Indoor and Outdoor unit,
as shown in Fig. 3-1. Never connect the wiring by mistake.
In case of wrong connection, the unit does not operate properly
and it may cause malfunction.
(2) The connecting cord must be fixed by the band which is located
near the terminal board.
3.3 Checking for the electric source and the voltage range
Before installation, the power source must be checked and necessary wiring work must be completed. To make the wiring capacity proper,
use the wire gauges list below for the lead-in from a pole transformer and for the wiring from a switch board of fuse box to the main switch
and outdoor unit in consideration of the locked rotor current.
Investigate the power supply capacity and other electrical conditions at the installation location.
Depending on the model of room air conditioner to be installed, request the customer to make arrangements for the necessary electrical
work etc.
The electrical work includes the wiring work up the outlet. In localities where electrical conditions are poor, use of a voltage regulation is
recommended.
