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.
1. Cut the pipes and the cable.
• Use the piping kit accessory or pipes purchased locally.
• 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.
(not possible to put them on after flaring work)
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.
• If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared sec-
tion and re-flare it.

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.
• 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 
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.
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.
Press the lower left and right sides of the unit against
the installation plate until the hooks engage into their
slots(clicking sound).
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.
For right rear piping
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.

• Tighten the flare nut with a wrench.
• When extending the drain hose at the indoor unit,
install the drain pipe.
5. Wrap the insulation material around the connecting
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 piping
housing section with vinyl tape.
• Bundle the piping and drain hose together by wrap-
ping them with vinyl tape for enough to cover where
they fit into the rear piping housing section.
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.
