WARNINGS CONCERNING INSTALLATION
• The unit and its accessories must only be installed
and wired by professionals with the necessary
technical qualifications in installation, conversion,
extension and maintenance of the systems and who
are trained to perform operational and safety checks
on these systems. In this manual, these will generally
be referred to as “Personnel with specific technical
skills”.
• Check that the power supply is disconnected before
carrying out any operations on the unit.
• Incorrect installation can result in water leaks,
electrocution or fires.
• After a prolonged period of use, check that the
installation conditions of the unit have not been
altered, and have the system checked by a qualified
engineer.
• Do not make any modifications to the unit! Do not
attempt to repair the unit alone, this is extremely
dangerous!
• Incorrect operations could cause electric shocks,
water leaks, fires etc.
• Contact your local dealer or After Sales Service: these
operations must only be carried out by “Personnel
with the specific technical skills”.

• For the installation, be sure to use only the
accessories and parts specified; failure to observe
this precaution may result in electric shocks, electric
discharge or fires.

consult your local retailer or the After Sales Service
beforehand; this should only be carried out by
“Personnel with specific technical skills”.
• To ensure good drainage, the condensate discharge
pipes must be correctly installed, following the
installation instructions. Adopt the most suitable
measures to avoid heat dispersion and the
consequent formation of condensate. Incorrect
installation of the pipes can result in water leaks,
wetting furniture and other items in the room.
NOISE
• Choose a well-ventilated area, to avoid reduced
performance or increased noise.
• Choose a position where the hot air or noise
emitted from the outdoor unit will not disturb your
neighbours.
• Never place objects near the air outlet or the unit, as
this could reduce performance or increase the noise
level.
• If abnormal noises are heard during operation,
contact the local After Sales Service immediately.
INSTALLATION POSITION
• Install on a solid surface which can bear the weight
of the air conditioner.
• Check the support is securely installed and the unit
is absolutely stable after operating for a long time. If
it is not securely fixed, the unit could fall and cause
injuries.
• Have the installation checked periodically, 3-4 times
a year, by “Personnel with specific technical skills”.
• Avoid places within the reach of children.
• Avoid exposure to other heat sources or to direct
sunlight.
• Install the indoor unit away from TV, radio and other
electrical equipment.
• Do not install the unit in a location where it could be
affected by inflammable gas leaks. This could start a
fire. Install the unit in a location with minimal levels
of dust, fumes and humidity in the air.
• In salty coastal areas, or in areas near sulphurous hot
springs, contact the retailer before installation to
ensure the unit can be safely used.
