that can sustain its weight. If the structure is
too weak, the unit may fallcausing personal
injury, unit and property damage, or even
death
•DO NOT install the indoor unit in a bathroom
or laundry roomas excessive moisture can
short the unit and corrode the wiring.
CAUTION
•Install the indoor and outdoor units, cables
and wires at least 1m (3.2GU) from
televisionsor radios to prevent static or
imagedistortion. Depending on the
appliances, a1m (3.2GU) distance may not
be sufficient.
•If the indoor unit is installed on a metal
part of the building, it must be grounded.

CAUTION
The unit body must be completely aligned with
the hole. Ensure that the unit and the hole are
the same size before moving on.
2. Install and fit pipes and wires after you have
finished installing the main body.When
choosing where to start, determine the
direction of the pipes to be drawn out.
Especially in cases where there is a ceiling
involved, align the refrigerant pipes, drain
pipes, and indoor and outdoor lines with their
connection points before mounting the unit.
3.
Install hanging screw bolts.
 After you select an installation location,align
the refrigerant pipes, drain pipes, aOEindoor
and outdoor wires with theirconnection
points before mounting the unit.
 Drill 4 holes 10cm (4JO) deep at the ceiling
hook positions in the internal ceiling. Be sure
to hold the drill at a 90° angle to the ceiling.
 Secure the bolt using the washers and nuts
provided.
 Install the four suspension bolts.
 Mount the indoor unit with at least two
people to lift and secure it. Insert suspension
bolts into the unit’s hanging holes. Fasten
them using the washers and nuts provided.
(See Fig. 4.8)
9. Mount the indoor unit onto the hanging
screw bolts with a block. Position the
indoor unit flat using a level indicator to
prevent leaks. (See Fig. 4.9)

NOTE: 1.Do not put the connecting duct
weight on the indoor unit.
 When connecting the duct, use a
nonflammable canvas tie-in to prevent
vibrating.
 Insulation foam must be wrapped outside the
duct to avoid condensatJPO. An internal duct
VOEFSMBZFS can be added to reduce noise,
if the end-user requiresJU.
Step 4: Control (only for inverter units)
The capacity of the system and the
network address of the airconditioner can
be set by the switches on the indoor Main
Control Board.
Before setting, turn off the power. After
setting, restart the unit.
Setting is not QPTTJCMF when the unit is
