• Ensure that the space around the left and right of the
unit is more than "A". The unit should be installed as
high on the wall as possible, allowing a minimum of
"B" from ceiling.

• Use a stud finder to locate studs to prevent unneces-
sary damage to the wall.
2. Outdoor unit
• If an awning is built over the unit to prevent direct sun-
light or rain exposure, make sure that heat radiation
from the condenser is not restricted.

3) How to fix installation plate
The wall you select should be strong and solid enough
to prevent vibration
to prevent vibration
1. Mount the installation plate on the wall with four
type A screws. If mounting the unit on a concrete
wall, use anchor bolts.
• Mount the installation plate horizontally by aligning
wall, use anchor bolts.
• Mount the installation plate horizontally by aligning
the centerline using a level.
2. Measure the wall and mark the centerline. It is
also important to use caution concerning the
location of the installation plate-routing of the
wiring to power outlets is through the walls typi-
cally. Drilling the hole through the wall for piping
connections must be done safely.

4) Drill a hole in the wall
• Drill the piping hole with a ø70mm hole core drill. Drill
the piping hole at either the right or the left with the
hole slightly slanted to the outdoor side.

2. Flaring Work and Connection of Piping
1) Flaring work
Main cause for refrigerant leakage is due to defect in
the flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work using the
following procedure.
the flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work using the
following procedure.
1. Cut the pipes and the cable.
• Use the piping kit accessory or pipes purchased locally.
• Measure the distance between the indoor and the
• Measure the distance between the indoor and the
outdoor unit.
• Cut the pipes a little longer than the measured
distance.
• Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.
2. Burr removal
• Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross sec-
tion of pipe/tube.
• Put the end of the copper tube/pipe in a downward
direction as you remove burrs in order to avoid drop-
ping burrs into the tubing.

3. Putting nut on
• Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor
unit, then put them on pipe/tube having completed
burr removal.

4. Flaring work
• Firmly hold copper pipe in a die in the dimension
shown in the table above.
• Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown
below.
5. Check
• Compare the flared work with figure below.

2) Connection of piping Indoor
• 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.
chassis.
• Replace the plastic tubing holder in the original posi-
tion.
1. Route the indoor tubing and the drain hose in the
direction of rear right.
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
• 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.
lowest side of the bundle. Locating at the upper
side can cause drain pan to overflow inside the
unit.
NOTE: If the drain hose is routed inside the room,
insulate the hose with an insulation material* so that
dripping from "sweating"(condensation) will not damage
furniture 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 instal-
lation plate.) Ensure that the hooks are properly seat-
ed on the installation plate by moving it left and right.

4. Connecting the pipings to the indoor unit and drain
hose to drain pipe.
• Align the center of the pipes and sufficiently tighten
the flare nut by hand.

CAUTION
When install, make sure
that the remaining parts
must be removed clearly
so as not to damage the
piping and drain hose,
especially power cord
and connecting cable.
