DANGER
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen.•
A massive leak can lead to oxygen depletion, especially
in basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur
leading to serious injury or death.
Do not ground units to water pipes, gas pipes, tele-•
phone wires, or lightning rods as incomplete grounding
can cause a severe shock hazard resulting in severe
injury or death. Additionally, grounding to gas pipes
could cause a gas leak and potential explosion causing
severe injury or death.
If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the•
area immediately. Refrigerant gas may produce toxic
gas if it comes in contact with fire. Exposure to this gas
could cause severe injury or death.
After completing the installation work, check that the•
refrigerant gas does not leak throughout the system.
Do not install unit in an area where flammable materials•
are present due to risk of explosions that can cause
serious injury or death.
Safely dispose all packing and transportation materials•
in accordance with federal/state/local laws or ordinanc-
es. Packing materials such as nails and other metal or
wood parts, including plastic packing materials used for
transportation may cause injuries or death by suffoca-
tion.
WARNING
All phases of the field-installation, including, but not•
limited to, electrical, piping, safety, etc. must be in ac-
cordance with manufacturer’s instructions and must
comply with national, state, provincial and local codes.
Only qualified personnel must carry out the installation•
work. Installation must be done in accordance with this
installation manual. Improper installation may result in
water leakage, electric shock, or fire.
When installing the unit in a small room, take measures•
to keep the refrigerant concentration from exceeding
allowable safety limits. Excessive refrigerant leaks, in
the event of an accident in a closed ambient space, can
lead to oxygen deficiency.
Use only specified accessories and parts for installation•
work. Failure to use specified parts may result in water
leakage, electric shocks, fire, or the unit falling.
Install the air conditioner or heat pump on a foundation•
strong enough that it can withstand the weight of the
unit. A foundation of insufficient strength may result in
the unit falling and causing injuries.
Take into account strong winds, typhoons, or earth-•
quakes when installing. Improper installation may result
in the unit falling and causing accidents.
Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is pro-•
vided for this unit and that all electrical work is carried
out by qualified personnel according to local, state, and
national regulations. An insufficient power supply
capacity or improper electrical construction may lead to
electric shocks or fire.

Make sure that all wiring is secured, that specified wires•
are used, and that no external forces act on the terminal
connections or wires. Improper connections or installa-
tion may result in fire.
When wiring, position the wires so that the control box •
cover can be securely fastened. Improper positioning of
the control box cover may result in electric shocks, fire, or
the terminals overheating.
Before touching electrical parts, turn off the unit.•
It is recommended to install a ground fault circuit inter-•
rupter if one is not already available. This helps prevent
electrical shocks or fire.
Securely fasten the outdoor unit terminal cover (panel).•
If the terminal cover/panel is not installed properly, dust
or water may enter the outdoor unit causing fire or
electric shock.
When installing or relocating the system, keep the•
refrigerant circuit free from substances other than the
specified refrigerant (R410A) such as air. Any presence
of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant cir-
cuit can cause an abnormal pressure rise or rupture,
resulting in injury.
Do not change the setting of the protection devices. If•
the pressure switch, thermal switch, or other protection
device is shorted and operated forcibly, or parts other
than those specified by Daikin are used, fire or explo-
sion may occur.
Heat exchanger fins are sharp enough to cut.•
To avoid injury wear glove or cover the fins when work-
ing around them.
CAUTION
Do not touch the switch with wet fingers. Touching a•
switch with wet fingers can cause electric shock.
Do not allow children to play on or around the unit to•
prevent injury.
Do not touch the refrigerant pipes during and immedi-•
ately after operation as the refrigerant pipes may be hot
or cold, depending on the condition of the refrigerant
flowing through the refrigerant piping, compressor, and
other refrigerant cycle parts.Your hands may suffer
burns or frostbite if you touch the refrigerant pipes. To
avoid injury, give the pipes time to return to normal
temperature or, if you must touch them, be sure to wear
proper gloves.
Install drain piping to proper drainage. Improper drain •
piping may result in water leakage and property damage.
Insulate piping to prevent condensation.•
Be careful when transporting the product.•
Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping •
operation. Always wait for at least 5 minutes before turn-
ing off the power. Otherwise, water leakage may occur.
Do not touch the refrigerant pipes during and immedi-•
ately after operation as the refrigerant pipes may be hot
or cold, depending on the condition of the refrigerant
flowing through the refrigerant piping, compressor, and
other refrigerant cycle parts.Your hands may suffer
burns or frostbite if you touch the refrigerant pipes. To
avoid injury, give the pipes time to return to normal
temperature or, if you must touch them, be sure to wear
proper gloves.
Do not use a charging cylinder. Using a charging cylin-•
der may cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.
Refrigerant R410A in the system must be kept clean,•
dry, and tight.
Clean and Dry -- Foreign materials (including min-(a)
eral oils such as SUNISO oil or moisture) should be
prevented from getting into the system.
Tight -- R410A does not contain any chlorine, does(b)
not destroy the ozone layer, and does not reduce the
earth’s protection again harmful ultraviolet radiation.
R410A can contribute to the greenhouse effect if it is
released. Therefore take proper measures to check
for the tightness of the refrigerant piping installa-
tion. Read the chapter Refrigerant Piping work and
follow the procedures.
Since R410A is a blend, the required additional refriger-•
ant must be charged in its liquid state. If the refrigerant
is charged in a state of gas, its composition can change
and the system will not work properly.
The indoor unit is for R410A. See the catalog for indoor•
models that can be connected. Normal operation is not
possible when connected to other units.
Remote controller transmitting distance can be shorter•
than expected in rooms with electronic fluorescent
lamps (inverter or rapid start types). Install the indoor
unit far away from fluorescent lamps as much as pos-
sible.
Install in a machine room that is free of moisture.•
The unit is designed for indoor use.
Indoor units are for indoor installation only. Outdoor•
units can be installed either outdoors or indoors. This
unit is for indoor use.
Do not install the air conditioner or heat pump in the•
following locations:
Where a mineral oil mist or oil spray or vapor is(a)
produced, for example, in a kitchen.
Plastic parts may deteriorate and fall off or result in
water leakage.
Where corrosive gas, such as sulfurous acid gas, is(b)
produced.
Corroding copper pipes or soldered parts may result
in refrigerant leakage.
Near machinery emitting electromagnetic waves.(c)
Electromagnetic waves may disturb the operation of
the control system and cause the unit to malfunc-
tion.
Where flammable gas may leak, where there is(d)
carbon fiber, or ignitable dust suspension in the air,
or where volatile flammables such as thinner or
gasoline are handled. Operating the unit in such
conditions can cause a fire.

additional parts must be done in accordance with the
relevant local, state, and national regulations.
Do not use the following tools that are used with con-•
ventional refrigerants: gauge manifold, charge hose,
gas leak detector, reverse flow check valve, refrigerant
charge base, vacuum gauge, or refrigerant recovery
equipment.
If the conventional refrigerant and refrigerator oil are•
mixed in R410A, the refrigerant may deteriorate.
This air conditioner or heat pump is an appliance that•
should not be accessible to the general public.
As design pressure is 478 psi, the wall thickness of•
field-installed pipes should be selected in accordance
with the relevant local, state, and national regulations.

CAUTION
When brazing piping while feeding nitrogen inside the•
piping, make sure to set the nitrogen pressure to 2.9 psi or
less using the pressure reducing valve.
(This pressure is such that a breeze is blown to your cheek.)
DANGER
Use of oxygen could result in an explosion resulting in•
serious injury or death. Only use dry nitrogen gas.
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact•
with fire such as from a fan heater, stove or cooking device.
Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or death.
NOTE
Do not use flux when brazing refrigerant piping. Therefore,•
use the phosphor copper brazing filler metal (BCuP) which
does not require flux.
Flux has an extremely negative effect on refrigerant piping
systems. For instance, if chlorine based flux is used, it will
cause piping corrosion. Flux containing fluorine will damage
refrigerant oil.
DRAIN PIPING WORK6.

The drain pan has connections for a primary and sec-•
ondary drain.
The diameter of the drain piping should be greater than•
or equal to the diameter of the connecting pipe (vinyl
tube; pipe size : 25/32 in. ; outer dimension : 1-1/32 in.).
(not including a riser)
Keep piping runs short with a downward slope of at•
least 1/100 to prevent air pocket from forming.
Be sure to install a drain trap at the drain outlet since•
the inside of the unit is at negative pressure relative to
atmospheric pressure during operation.
To keep the piping from becoming clogged with dirt,•
avoid bends where possible and install so that traps can
be cleaned.
Air handler
At least
4 in.
At least

Observe the following guidelines when installing con-•
centrated drain piping. Select the thickness of the
concentrated drain piping to reflect the capacity of the
machine to which it will be connected.
CAUTION
Water accumulating in the drain piping can cause the drain•
to clog.
〈PRECAUTIONS〉
Drain piping connections
Do not connect the drain piping directly to sewage piping•
that smell of ammonia. The ammonia in the sewage might
enter the indoor unit through the drain piping and corrode
the heat exchanger.
Do not twist or bend the drain hose, as excessive force may•
cause it to leak.
After piping work is finished, check drainage flows(2)
smoothly.
Gradually insert approximately 1 quart of water into the•
drain pan to check drainage in the manner described
below.
INSTALLING THE DUCT7.
Exercise care regarding the following when performing duct work.
Verify that duct work does not exceed the unit’s setting range •
of external static pressure (up to 0.5 Wg at “HH” speed).
Install canvas ducts at air outlets and inlets so that vibrations•
from the main unit are not transmitted to ducts or the floor.
Additionally, line the duct with sound-absorbing material
(heat insulation material) as necessary.
Be sure to install an air filter to the product’s air inlet or to a•
field-supplied air inlet inside the air passage on the suction
side.
Perform the curing and other work during duct welding so•
that the inside of the product is not exposed to spatter.
If the metal duct passes through a metal lath, wire lath, or•
metal plate of a wooden structure, isolate the duct from the
wall electrically.
Be sure to heat-insulate the duct to prevent the formation of•
condensation. (Material: Glass wool or polyethylene foam;
thickness: 1 inch.)
Explain to the customer how to operate and clean field-•
supplied components such as air filters, air inlet grilles, air
outlet grilles.
To prevent drafts, locate the air outlet grille on the indoor•
side so that warm air from the outlet does not come into
direct contact with room occupants.
When an electric heater (optional) is installed, use metal•
duct and wrap the duct with a glass-wool insulation material.
ELECTRIC WIRING WORK8.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS8-1
Shut off the power before doing any work.•
All field supplied parts and materials, electric works must•
conform to local codes.

HOW TO CONNECT WIRINGS9-1
〈Precautions when laying power supply wiring〉
Wiring of different thicknesses cannot be connected to the•
power supply wiring terminal block. Slack in the power
supply wiring may cause abnormal heat.
Use sleeve-insulated round crimp-style terminals for con-•
nections to the power supply wiring terminal block. When
none are available, connect wires of the same diameter to
both sides, as shown in the figure.
Electric wire
Round crimp-style terminal
Insulation sleeve
Connect wires of
the same gauge to
both sides.
Do not connect
wires of the same
gauge to one side.
Do not connect
wires of different
gauges.
If the wiring gets too hot due to loose power-supply wir-
ing, use the following precautions:
For wiring, use the designated power supply wiring and•
connect firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure
being exerted on the terminal board.
Use the correct screwdriver for tightening the terminal•
screws. If the blade of screwdriver is too small, the head of
the screw might be damaged, and the screw will not be
properly tightened.
If the terminal screws are tightened too hard, screws might•
be damaged.
Refer to Table 4 for the tightening torque of the terminal•
screws.

tightly. Be careful that wires do not place external stress on
terminals. Keep wires in neat order so as to not to obstruct
other equipment. Make sure that the electric component box
cover closes tightly. Incomplete connections could result in
overheating, and in worse cases, electric shock or fire.
WARNING
Never connect power supply wiring to the terminal block for •
remote controller wiring as this could damage the entire system.
CAUTION
When doing the wiring, make sure the wiring is neat and •
does not cause the electric front panel to stick up, then close
the panel firmly. When attaching the front panel, make sure
you do not pinch any wires.
Outside the air conditioners, separate the low voltage wiring•
(remote controller and transmission wiring) and high voltage
wiring (ground wire and power supply wiring) by at least 5 in.
so that they do not pass through the same place together.
Proximity may cause electrical interference, malfunctions,
and breakage.
[ PRECAUTIONS ]
Refer to the “REMOTE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION•
MANUAL” on how to install and lay the wiring for the remote
controller.
See also the “Wiring Diagram Label” located inside the unit’s•
blower deck.
