IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3
ENGLISH
• Do not modify or extend the power cable. If the power cable or cord
has scrathes or skin peeled off or deteriorated then it must be
replaced. There is risk of fire or electric shock.
• For installation, removal or reinstall , always contact the dealer or an
Authorized Service Center. There is risk of fire, electric shock, explo-
sion, or injury.
• Do not install the product on a defective installation stand. Be sure
that the installation area does not deteriorate with age. It may cause
product to fall.
• Never install the outdoor unit on a moving base or a place from where
it can fall down.
The falling outdoor unit can cause damage or injury or even death of a
person.
• In outdoor unit the step-up capacitor supplies high voltage electricity
to the electrical components. Be sure to discharge the capacitor com-
pletely before conducting the repair work.
An charged capacitor can cause electrical shock.
• When installing the unit, use the installation kit provided with the
product. Otherwise the unit may fall and cause severe injury.
• Indoor/outdoor wiring connections must be secured tightly and the
cable should be routed properly so that there is no force pulling the
cable from the connection terminals. Improper or loose connections
can cause heat generation or fire.
• Safely dispose off the packing materials. Like screws, nails, batteries,
broken things etc after installation or svc and then tear away and
throw away the plastic packaging bags. Children may play with them
and cause injury.
• Be sure to check the refrigerant to be used. Please read the label on
the product. Incorrect refrigerant used can prevent the normal opera-
tion of the unit.
Operation
• When the product is soaked (flooded or submerged) in water , contact
an Authorized Service Center for repair before using it again. There is
risk of fire or eletric shock.
• Be sure to use only those parts which are listed in the svc parts list.
Never attempt to modify the equipment. The use of inappropriate
parts can cause an electrical shock, excessive heat generation or fire.
• Do not touch , operate, or repair the product with wet hands. Hold the
plug by hand when taking out. There is risk of electric shock or fire.

4IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ENGLISH

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 5
ENGLISH
• Install the drain hose to ensure that the condensed water is drained
away properly. A bad connection may cause water leakage.
• Keep level even when installing the product. To avoid vibration or
noise.
• Do not install the product where the noise or hot air from the outdoor
unit could damage or disturb the neighborhoods. It may cause a prob-
lem for your neighbors and hence dispute.
• Always check for gas (refrigerant) leakage after installation or repair of
product. Low refrigerant levels may cause failure of product.
• Please install safely at a place that can sufficiently endure the weight
of the product.
If the strength is not sufficient, the product may fall and cause injury.
Operation
• Do not use the product for special purposes, such as preserving
foods, works of art, etc. It is a consumer air conditioner, not a preci-
sion refrigeration system. There is risk of damage or loss of property.
• Do not block the inlet or outlet of air flow. It may cause product fail-
ure.

ter. There is risk of personal injury.
• Do not step on or put anyting on the product. (outdoor units) There is
risk of personal injury and failure of product.
• Always insert the filter securely after cleaning. Clean the filter every
two weeks or more often if necessary. A dirty filter reduces the effi-
ciency.
• Do not insert hands or other objects through the air inlet or outlet
while the product is operating. There are sharp and moving parts that
could cause personal injury.
• Be cautious when unpacking and installing the product. Sharp edges

INSTALLATION OF INDOOR, OUTDOOR UNIT 9
ENGLISH
Install the indoor unit on the wall where
the height from the floors more than 2.3
meters. (ART COOL Type Only 1.5m)
CAUTION
!
Read completely, then follow step by step.
You need to select adequate installation location
considering the following conditions, and make
sure to acquire the consent of the user.
Select the best location
1
Do not have any heat or steam near the unit.
2 Select a place where there are no obstacles
in front of the unit.
3 Make sure that condensation drainage can be
conveniently routed away.
4
Do not install near a doorway.
5 Ensure the spaces indicated by arrows from the
wall, ceiling, fence or other obstacles.
6 Use a stud finder to locate studs to prevent
unnecessary damage to the wall.
1 If an awning is built over the unit to prevent
direct sunlight or rain exposure, make sure
that heat radiation from the condenser is not
restricted.
2 Ensure that the spaces indicated by arrows
around front, back and side of the unit.
3
Do not place animals and plants in the path of
the warm air.
4 Take the air conditioner weight into account
and select a place where noise and vibration
are minimum.
5 Select a place so that the warm air and noise
from the air conditioner do not disturb neigh-
bors.
6
Place that can sufficiently endure the weight
and vibration of the outdoor unit and where
even installation is possible.
7
Place that has no direct influence of snow or
rain.
8 Place with no danger of snowfall or icicle
drop.
9 Place without weak floor or base such as
decrepit part of the building or with a lot of
snow accumulation.
10 Sufficient ventilation is secured.
If the outdoor unit is installed on a roof structure,
be sure to level the unit. Ensure the roof struc-
ture and anchoring method are adequate for the
unit location. Consult local codes regarding
rooftop mounting.

10 INSTALLATION OF INDOOR, OUTDOOR UNIT
ENGLISH
Fixing Installation Plate
The wall you select should be strong and solid
enough to prevent vibration
1Mount the installation plate on the wall
with type "A" screws. If mounting the unit
on a concrete wall, use anchor bolts.
- Mount the installation plate horizontally
by aligning the centerline using a level.
2Measure the wall and mark the centerline.
It is also important to use caution concern-
ing the location of the installation plate-
routing of the wiring to power outlets is
through the walls typically. Drilling the hole
through the wall for piping connections
must be done safely.
