erant) leakage after installa-
tion or repair of product.
• Low refrigerant levels may
cause failure of product.
Install the drain hose to
ensure that water is drained
away properly.
• A bad connection may cause
water leakage.
Keep level even when
installing the product.
• To avoid vibration or water
leakage.
Do not install the product
where the noise or hot air from
the outdoor unit could dam-
age the neighborhoods.

• The dimensions of the paper model for installation are the same as those of the ceiling opening dimensions.
• Avoid the following installation location.
1. Such places as restaurants and kitchen where considerable amount of oil steam and flour is generated.
These may cause heat exchange efficiency reduction, or water drops, drain pump mal-function.
In these cases, take the following actions;
• Make sure that ventilation fan is enough to cover all noxious gases from this place.
• Ensure enough distance from the cooking room to install the air conditioner in such a place where it may
not suck oily steam.
2. Avoid installng air conditioner in such
places where cooking oil or iron powder is
generated.
3. Avoid places where inflammable gas is
generated.
4. Avoid place where noxious gas is
generated.
5. Avoid places near high frequency
generators.
NOTICE
CAUTION :
• This air-conditioner uses a drain
pump.
• Install the unit horizontally using a
level gauge.
• During the installation, care should
be taken not to damage electric
wires.
• Select and mark the position for fixing bolts and piping hole.
• Decide the position for fixing bolts slightly tilted to the drain
direction after considering the direction of drain hose.
• Drill the hole for anchor bolt on the wall.
Use the ventilation fan
for smoke-collecting
hood with sufficient
capacity.

Installation Manual 11
Installation
ENGLISH
• Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to 1/100): be sure not to
provide up-and-down slope to prevent reversal flow.
• During drain piping connection, be careful not to exert extra force
on the drain port on the indoor unit.
• The outside diameter of the drain connection on the indoor unit is
32mm.
• Be sure to install heat insulation on the drain piping.
Piping material: Polyvinyl chloride pipe VP-25 and
pipe fittings
The air conditioner uses a drain pump to drain water.
Use the following procedure to test the drain pump operation:
• Connect the main drain pipe to the exterior
and leave it provisionally until the test
comes to an end.
• Feed water to the flexible drain hose and
check the piping for leakage.
• Be sure to check the drain pump for normal
operating and noise when electrical wiring
is complete.
• When the test is complete, connect the flex-
ible drain hose to the drain port on the
indoor unit.
Heat insulation material: Polyethylene foam with thick-
ness more than 8 mm.

12 Indoor Unit
Installation
CAUTION:
After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of
wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram posted on the inside of control box cover.
2) Provide a circuit breaker switch between power source and the unit.
3) The screws which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose
from vibrations to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check them
and make sure that they are all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could give rise to burn-out
of the wires.)
4) Specification of power source
5) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6) Be sure that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage
marked on the name plate.
7) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power sources specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
8) Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance by the nor-
mal function of an overload protection device.
• Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.
HAND OVER
Teach the customer the operation and maintenance procedures, using the operation manual.
(air filter cleaning, temperature control, etc.)
WIRED REMOTE CONTROLLER INSTALLATION
• Since the room temperature sensor is in the remote controller, the remote controller box should be installed in a place away
from direct sunlight, high humidity and direct supply of cold air to maintain proper space temperature.
Install the remote controller about 5ft(1.5m) above the floor in an area with good air circulation at an average temperature.
Do not install the remote controller where it can be affected by:
- Drafts, or dead spots behind doors and in corners.
- Hot or cold air from ducts.
- Radiant heat from sun or appliances.
- Concealed pipes and chimneys.
- Uncontrolled areas such as an outside wall behind the remote controller.
- This remote controller is equipped with a seven segment LED. display. For proper display of the remote controller
LED's, the remote controller should be installed properly as shown in Fig.1.
(The standard height is 1.2~1.5 m from floor level.)

4. Please connect indoor unit and remote controller using connection cable.
5. Please use extension cable if the distance between wired remote controller and indoor unit is more
than 10m.
Please check if connector is normally connected.
Connecting cable

Unit side
When installing the wired remote controller, do not bury it in the wall.
(It can cause damage in the temperature sensor.)
Do not install the cable to be 50m or above.
(It can cause communication error.)
• When installing the extension cable, check the connecting direction of the connector of the
remote controller side and the product side for correct installation.
• If you install the extension cable in the opposite direction, the connector will not be connected.
• Specification of extension cable: 2547 1007 22# 2 core 3 shield 5 or above.
