Fixing the Installation Plate
Drilling the Hole
1. Install the installation plate
horizontally over the structural
parts on the wall using the spaces
indicated on the plate, as shown in
the figure above.
2. In the case of tiled, concrete or
similar walls, create 5 mm-diameter
holes. Place anchorage supports
for the appropriate assembly
screws.
3. Fix the installation plate to the wall
with 8 A type screws.
1. Determine the position of the hole for
the pipe using the installation plate
and drill the pipe hole so that it is
titled slightly downward.
2. Always use a pipe cover with an
opening when drilling a metal bar.

Connective pipe and drainage installation
Drainage
1. Run the drain hose sloping
downward. Do not install the drain
hose as illustrated below.
2. When connecting extension drain
hose, insulate the connecting part
of extension drain hose with a
shield pipe, do not let the drain
hose slack.
Connective pipe
1. For the left-hand and right-hand
piping, remove the pipe cover from
the side panel. Explain to clients
that the pipe cover must be kept as
it may be used when relocate the air
conditioner to any other place.
2. For the rear-right-hand and rear-left-
hand piping, install the piping as
shown. Bend the connective pipe to
be laid at 43mm height or less from
the wall. Fix the end of the
connective pipe.

3. Be careful not to let the drain hose
slack.
5. Heat insulated both of the auxiliary
piping.
6. Be sure that the drain hose is
located at the lowest side of the
bundle. Locating at the upper side
can cause drain pan to overflow
inside the unit.
7. Never intercross nor intertwist the
power wire with any other wiring.
8. Run the drain hose sloped
downward to drain out the
condensed water smoothly.

Attention
1. Pass the piping through the hole in
the wall.
2. Put the upper claw at the back of
the indoor unit on the upper hook of
the installation plate, move the
indoor unit from side to side to see
that it is securely hooked.
3. Piping can easily be made by lifting
the indoor unit with a cushioning
material between the indoor unit
and the wall. Get it out after finish
piping.
4. Push the lower part of the indoor
unit up on the wall, Then move the
indoor unit from side to side, up and
down to check if it is hooked
securely.

1. Install the outdoor part of the unit
on a rigid surface to avoid excess
noise and vibration.
2. Direct the air vent toward an area
without obstacles.
3. Install the unit so that it is exposed
to as little wind as possible,
especially in areas where it is
frequently windy.
4. If the installation site is exposed to
heavy winds, such as in coastal
areas, place the unit along the
widest part of the wall or use
protective plates.
7. If need suspending installation, the
installation bracket should accord
with technique requirement in the
installation bracket diagram. The
installation wall should be solid
brick, concrete or the same
intensity construction, or actions to
reinforce, damping supporting
should be taken. The connection
between bracket and wall, bracket
and the air conditioner should be
firm, stable and reliable.
6. Be sure there is no obstacle which
block radiating air.
