nolessthan2.5metersabovetheoor.
6 Make sure that the indoor unit is installed in
accordance with installation dimension as
below:

Pipe Length Elevation and Additional Quantity of Gas
• The outdoor unit is charged with the
refrigerant for standard pipe length.
• When the connecting pipe length is longer
than standard length, additional refrigerant
should be added into the unit according
the above table through the service port on
3-way service valve on the outdoor unit.
• Please maintain the shortest distance (3 to 5
meters) and shortest misalignment possible
between the indoor and outdoor units.
• Themaximumallowancelengthandheight
is based on reliability.
• Exceedingthemaximummaycausepoor
performance or malfunction.
• When the outdoor unit is installed above
the indoor unit, oil trap should be installed
every 5-7 meters.

• If a suspended installation is needed,
the installation bracket must allow the
xaccordingtodimensionsonthe
gureabove.
• The wall where the unit will be installed
must be of solid brick, concrete or
provided with other reinforcement ways
toxthebracket.Thexationofthe
bracket to the wall and the bracket to
theairconditionermustberm,steady
and leveled.
• Anchortheoutdoorunitbyxingthe4holes
existentinitsbasedwith4boltsandnutsof
10 mm tightly (not included).
Place the outdoor unit over a horizontal
concrete or rigid surface (never directly over
grass or land).
Step 2: Outdoor Condensate Drainage
(only for heat pump model)
• During heating operation, the condensate and
defrosting water should be drained out reliably
through the drain hose.
• Install the outdoor drain connector in the drain-
water hole on the chassis of outdoor unit, and
attach the drain hose to the connector so that
the waste water formed in the outdoor unit can
be drained out.
• The drain-water hole must be plugged.
Whether to plug other holes will be determined
by the installer according to actual conditions.
• In case of a drain hose, the unit must be
installed on a base more than 3cm height.
Step 1: Securing of Outdoor Unit
Step 1: Installation of Mounting Plate
1 Fit the mounting plate horizontally on the wall
withveormoreself-tappingscrews(type
ST4x25,item3onpage3).
2 Be sure that the mounting plate has been
xedrmlyenoughtowithstandabout60kg.
Meanwhile, the weight should be evenly shared
by every screw.
3 3 If the wall is made of brick, concrete or the
like,drillve(5)ormoreholesof5mmdiameter
in the wall. Insert clip anchor (item 2 on page 3)
for appropriate mounting screws.
4 The water tray’s outlet for the indoor unit is two-
way drainage design. During installation, the
indoor unit should slightly slant to water tray’s
outlet for smooth drainage of condenser water.
Fit the mounting plate and drill holes in the wall
according to the wall structure and correcponding
mounting points on the mounting plate.

Step 2: Drill Piping Hole
1 Determine hole positions according to the
diagram.Drillone(1)hole(Ф55orФ70mm)
in the wall at a slight downward slant to the
outdoor side.
Piping hole Model
Ф55mm Cooling capacity <6000W
Ф70mm Cooling capacity >6000W
2 The inclination must be between 5 - 10mm in
order to ensure a good drain of condensed
water generated by the indoor unit.
Step 3: Installation of Drain Hose
Remove both supports
3 Insert the wall pipe into the hole to prevent
and wiring from being damaged when passing
through the whole.
4 Always use a wall hole conduit when drilling
metal grids, metal plates or the like.
5 For cooling capacity over 6000W models,
remove and dispose the two polystyrene lateral
rear supports from the indoor unit before the
installation.
1 Connect the drain hose to the outlet pipe of the
indoor unit. Bind the joint with vinyl tape.
2 Put the drain hose into insulating pipe.
