neer.
G
WARNING
Do not install it yourself.
• Incorrect installation could cause injury due to fire, electric shock, the unit falling or leakage of
water. Consult your dealer from whom you purchased the unit or an authorised installer.
Install the unit securely in a place which can bear the weight of the unit.
• When installed in an insufficiently strong place, the unit could fall causing injury.
Use the specified electrical wires to connect the indoor and outdoor units securely and attach the
wires firmly to the terminal board connecting sections so the stress of the wires is not applied to
the sections.
• Incorrect connection and fixing could cause a fire.
Be sure to use the provided or specified parts for the installation work.
• The use of defective parts could cause an injury due to a fire, electric shock, the unit falling,
etc.
Perform the installation securely referring to the installation instruction.
• Incorrect installation could cause a personnel injury due to fire, electric shock, the unit falling
or leakage of water.
Perform electrical work according to the installation manual and be sure to use an exclusive
circuit.
• If the capacity of the power circuit is insufficient or there is incomplete electrical work, it could
result in a fire or an electric shock.
Check that the refrigerant gas does not leak during installation or after installation is completed.
• Leaking refrigerant is bad for the environment and could cause global warming.
Attach the electrical part cover to the indoor unit and the service panel to the outdoor unit
securely.
• If the electrical part covers off the indoor unit and/ or the service panel of the outdoor unit are
not attached securely, it could result in a fire or electrical shock due to dust, water, etc.

CAUTION
if the piping is exiting the unit behind on the right then the piping must be fed through the
drilled hole at the same time as hanging the interior unit.
e. Feed the piping, the power cable and the condensation hose through the hole in the wall.
G
TIP
The piping, power cable and condensation hose can be attached easier
by pulling the bottom of the interior unit about 5 cm from the wall and temporarily inserting
something so that the gap stays open, see figure 3.
f. Connect the coolant pipes, the power cables and the condensation hose to the interior unit. See
chapter 8.2, 9, 10 and 11.2.
g. Position the exterior unit see chapter 5.2
h. Connect the piping and the power cable to the exterior unit. See chapter 11.2.
i. Vacuum the cooling unit. See chapter 12.
j. Check the cooling circuit for leakages. See chapter 13.
k. Check that the entire system is properly installed.
l. Connect the plug of the power supply cable to the power supply and check that the air conditioner
is working properly. See chapter 15.

4. DETERMINING THE LOCATION OF THE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE UNIT.
4.1 Determining the location of the inside and outside unit for the S 3825
& S 3832 models.
• Do not expose the indoor unit to heat or steam.
• Select a place where there are no obstacles in front or around the unit.
• Make sure that condensation drainage can be conveniently routed away continuously going down-
wards.
• Do not install near a doorway.
• Ensure that the space on the left and right of the unit is more than 12cm.
• Use a wire detector to detect wires and/or electric cables. to locate studs to prevent unnecessary
damage to the wall.
• The top of the indoor unit should be installed on the wall at a height of 2.3 metres or more from the
floor.

8
• The indoor unit should be installed allowing a minimum clearance of 15cm from the ceiling.
• Be sure to level the indoor unit.
• When determining the location of the interior unit take the possible locations of the exterior unit
into account. Interior and exterior part must be linked by piping and cables.
G
TAKE CARE
For units with a capacity of up to 6.0 kW, the maximum pipe length between the inside and the
outside part is 20 metres.
For units with a capacity of up to 6.0 kW, the maximum difference in height between the inside
and the outside part is 8 metres.
12cm (4.75in)
or more
2.3m (90.55in) or more
12cm (4.75in)
or more
15cm (5.9in) or more
4.2 Determining the location of the exterior unit for the S 3825 & S 3832
models
• Install the outdoor unit on a rigid base to prevent increasing noise level and vibration.
G
NOTE
The outdoor unit produces sound when in use, this could interfere with local legislation. It
is the responsibility of the user to check and to make sure the equipment is in full compliance
with local legislation.
• Determine the air outlet direction where the drainaged air is not blocked.
• Take the air conditioner weight into account.
• If an awning is built over the outdoor unit to prevent direct sunlight or rain exposure, make sure that
heat radiation from the condenser is not restricted.
• Ensure that the clearance around the back of the unit is more than 30 cm and left side is more than 30
cm. The front of the unit should have more than 200 cm of clearance and the connection side (right
side) should have more than 60 cm of clearance. See picture 5.
• Be sure to level the outdoor unit

• When determining the location of the exterior unit take into account the possible location of the
interior unit. The interior and exterior units must be connected by pipes and cables.
G
TAKE CARE
For units with a capacity of up to 6.0 kW, the maximum pipe length between the inside and the
outside part is 20 metres. For units with a capacity > 6.0 kW, the maximum pipe length between
the inside and the outside part is 30 metres.
For units with a capacity of up to 6.0 kW, the maximum difference in height between the inside
and the outside part is 8 metres. For units with a capacity > 6.0 kW, the maximum difference in
height between the inside and the outside part is 20 metres.
• Do not place animals and plants or other obstacles in the path of the air inlet or outlet.
• Always install the air conditioner at an easily accessible location.
• Consult and follow local legislation regarding mounting and installation of air conditioner equip-
ment.
• In the case that the installation place is exposed to strong wind such as a seaside, make sure the fan
is operating properly by putting the unit lengthwise along the wall or using a dust or shield plates.
See picture 6.

ATTENTION
If need suspending installation, the installation bracket should accord with all technical
requirements. The installation wall should be strong enough or actions to reinforce should be
taken. The connection between bracket and wall, bracket and the air conditioner should be firm,
stable and reliable. In case of any doubts or uncertainty do not attempt to install the unit but
have the support calculated and engineered by a skilled engineer.
5. POSSIBILITIES FOR INSTALLING THE PIPING FROM THE INTERIOR UNIT TO
THE EXTERIOR UNIT.
• The piping can be connected exiting from the left rear or right rear of the interior unit. Remove the
left or right breakout plate. See figure 7.
• The piping can be connected exiting from the left rear or right rear. See figure 7.
