Installation
Selection of the best location
CAUTION : In case that the unit is installed near the sea, the installation parts
may be corroded by salt. The installation parts (and the unit) should be taken
appropriate anti-corrosion measures.
• There should not be any heat source or steam
near the unit.
• There should not be any obstacles to prevent the
air circulation.
• A place where air circulation in the room will be
good.
• A place where drainage can be easily obtained.
• A place where noise prevention is taken into con-
sideration.
• Do not install the unit near the door way.
• Ensure the spaces indicated by arrows from the
wall, ceiling, fence, or other obstacles.
The mounting wall should be strong and solid
enough to protect it from the vibration.
Mount the installation plate on the wall with four
Type "A" screws.
(If mounting the unit on the concrete wall, consid-
er using anchor bolts.)
• Always mount the Installation plate horizontally
by aligning the marking-off line by means of the
thread and a level.

Piping Method
■Preparing the indoor unit's piping and drain hose for
installation through the wall.
■Remove the plastic tubing retainer(see illustration
below) and pull the tubing and drain hose away from
chassis.
■Replace the plastic tubing holder in the original position.
1. Route the indoor tubing and the drain hose in the
direction of rear left.
2. Insert the connecting cable into the indoor unit
from the outdoor unit through the piping hole.
■Do not connect the cable to the indoor unit.
■Make a small loop with the cable for easy connection
later.
3. Tape the tubing, drain hose and the connecting
cable. 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.
: If the drain hose is routed inside the room,
insulate the hose with an insulation material* so that drip-
ping from "sweating"(condensation) will not damage furni-
ture or floors.
*Foamed polyethylene or equivalent is recommended.
4. Indoor unit installation
■Hook the indoor unit onto the upper portion of the
installation plate.(Engage the two hooks of the rear
top of the indoor unit with the upper edge of the
installation plate.) Ensure that the hooks are properly
seated on the installation plate by moving it left and
right.
Press the lower left and right sides of the unit against
the installation plate until the hooks engage into their
slots(clicking sound).

5. Connecting the pipings to the indoor unit and drain
hose to drain pipe.
■Align the center of the pipings and sufficiently tighten
the flare nut by hand.
■Tighten the flare nut with a wrench.
■Mount the clamp on the boss with a type "B"
screw.(optional)
■When extending the drain hose at the indoor
unit, install the drain pipe.
6. Wrap the insulation material around the connect-
ing portion.
■Overlap the connection pipe insulation material
and the indoor unit pipe insulation material. Bind
them together with vinyl tape so that there is no
gap.
■Wrap the area which accommodates the rear pip-
ing housing section with vinyl tape.
■Bundle the piping and drain hose together by
wrapping them with vinyl tape over the range with-
in which they fit into the rear piping housing sec-
tion.
1. Route the indoor tubing and the drain hose to the
required piping hole position.
2. Insert the piping, drain hose and the connecting
cable into the piping hole.

Installation
CAUTION:
After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power circuit specifically for the air conditioner. As for the
method of wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram posted on the inside of control cover.
2) The screw 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 cause burn-out of the
wires.)
3) Specification of power source.
4) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
5) See to that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage marked
on the name plate.
6) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power source specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
7) In a wet or moist area, always install an earth leakage circuit breaker.
8) The following would be caused by voltage drop.
•Vibration of a magnetic switch, which will damage the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance of the
normal function of the overload.
9) The means for disconnection from a power supply shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring and
have an air gap contact separation of at least 3mm in each active(phase) conductors.
Wiring Connection
Connect the wires to the terminals on the control
board individually according to the outdoor unit
connection.
•Ensure that the color of the wires of outdoor unit
and the terminal No. are the same as those of
indoor unit respectively.

CN REMO
•Although the room temperature sensor is in the indoor unit, the remote controller should be installed in such
places away from direct sunlight and high humidity.
Installation of the remote controller
•Select places that are not splashed with water.
•Select controller position after receiving customer approval.
•The room temperature sensor is built in the indoor unit.
•This remote controller equipped with liquid crystal display. If this position is higher or lower, display is difficult
to see.(The standard height is 1.2 ~1.5m high)
Routing of the remote controller cord
•Keep the remote controller cord away from the refrigerant piping and the drain piping.
•To protect the remote controller cord from electrical noise, place the cord at least 5cm away from other
power cables. (audio equipment. television set, etc.)
•If the remote controller cord is secured to the wall, provide a trap at the top of the cord to prevent water
droplets from running.
