There are 2 types of wall-mounting methods: Exposed type and Embedded type.
Mounting the bottom case
Tighten the screws securely until the screw heads touch the bottom
case.
(Otherwise, loose screw heads may hit the PCB and cause
malfunction when mounting the top case.)
Do not over-tighten the screws.
(The bottom case may be deformed, resulting in the unit becoming
detached from the surface it is fixed to.)
Connection to the remote controller terminal board
Depress the push button using a round bar or finger, insert the
remote control wiring securely from the wiring insertion slot and
release the push button.
Pull the remote control wiring lightly, and confirm it is secured.
There is the danger of shorting if copper wire is exposed. Make sure
the wire is properly inserted.
