The air conditioner uses a drain pump to drain water.
Use the following procedure to test the drain pump operation:

• Connect the main drain pipe to the exterior

and leave it provisionally until the test comes
to an end.

• Feed water to the flexible drain hose and

check the piping for leakage.

• Be sure to check the drain pump for normal

operating and noise when electrical wiring is
complete.

• When the test is complete, connect the flexi-

ble drain hose to the drain port on the indoor
unit.

Heat insulation material: Polyethylene foam with
thickness more than 8 mm.

Install certainly the decorative panel.
Cool air leakage causes sweating.  

Water drops fall.

• Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to 1/100):

be sure not to provide up-and-down slope to prevent
reversal flow.

• During drain piping connection, be careful not to

exert extra force on the drain port on the indoor unit.

• The outside diameter of the drain connection on the

indoor unit is 32mm.

• Be sure to execute heat insulation on the drain piping.

1. Use the heat insulation material for the refrigerant piping which has an excellent heat-resistance (over 120°C).

2. Precautions in high humidity circumstance:

This air conditioner has been tested according to the
"KS Standard Conditions with Mist" and confirmed
that there is not any default. However, if it is operated
for a long time in high humid atmosphere (dew point
temperature: more than 23°C), water drops are liable
to fall. In this case, add heat insulation material
according to the following procedure:

• Heat insulation material to be prepared... Adiabatic
glass wool with thickness 10 to 20mm.
• Stick glass wool on all air conditioners that are located in ceiling atmosphere.
• In addition to the normal heat insulation (thickness: more than 8mm) for refrigerant piping (gas piping: thick pip-

ing) and drain piping, add further 10mm to 30mm thickness material.

•If you want to connect an additional drain hose, the
end of the drain-outlet should keep distance from
the ground. (Do not dip it into water, and fix it on the
wall to avoid swinging in the wind.)

• The initial power supply must provide at least 90% of the rated voltage.

Otherwise, the air conditioner should not be operated.

For test run, carry out the cooling operation firstly even during heating season. If heating operation
is carried out firstly, it leads to the trouble of compressor. Then attention must be paid.
Carry out the test run more than 5 minutes without fail.
(Test run will be cancelled 18 minutes later automatically)

• The test run is started by pressing the room temperature checking button and down timer button for 3 sec-

onds at the same time.

• To cancel the test run, press any button.

• After completing work, be sure to measure and record trial run properties, and store measured data, etc.
• Measuring items are room temperature, outside temperature, suction temperature, blow out temperature,

wind velocity, wind volume, voltage, current, presence of abnormal vibration and noise, operating pressure,
piping temperature, compressive pressure.

• As to the structure and appearance, check following items.

Is the circulation of air adequate?
Is the draining smooth?
Is the heat insulation complete

(refrigerant and drain piping)?

Is there any leakage of refrigerant?

Is the remote controller switch operated?
Is there any faulty wiring?
Are not terminal screws loosened?

1. Connect the power supply cord to the independent

power supply.
• Circuit breaker is required.

2. Operate the unit for fifteen minutes or more.

1. Measure the temperature of the intake and dis-

charge air.

2. Ensure the difference between the intake tempera-

ture and the discharge one is more than 8°C (Cool-
ing) or reversely (Heating).

Teach the customer the operation and maintenance procedures, using the operation manual (air filter cleaning,
temperature control, etc.).

After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of

8) Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point there of, fuse breaking, disturbance to the nor-

mal function of a overload protection device.

• Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.
