2.5 Information on refrigerant
This device contains fluorinated greenhouse gases as refrigerant. The
device is hermetically sealed. You will find the information on the
refrigerant according to the Regulation (EU) No 517/2014 on
fluorinated greenhouse gases in the operating instructions of the device.
Information for the installer: If you refill refrigerant, enter the additional
charge size and the total charge size of the refrigerant in the table
“information on refrigerant” of the operating instructions.
3 Installation
3.1 Before installation
CAUTION
Risk of injury from sharp edges!
▶ Wear protective gloves during installation.
CAUTION
Danger of burns!
During operation the pipes become hot.
▶ Make sure, that the pipes cooled down before touching them.
▶ Check the scope of delivery for damage.
▶ Check whether a hissing sound due to negative pressure can be
detected when opening the pipes of the indoor unit.
3.2 Requirements for installation site
▶ Observe minimum clearances ( Chapter 2.4 on page 48).
▶ Observe minimum room area.
Table 6 Minimum room area
General notices regarding indoor units
▶ Do not install the indoor unit in a room in which open ignition sources
(for example: open flames, an operating wall mounted gas boiler or
an operating electric heating system) are in operation.
▶ The installation location must not be higher than 2000 m above sea
level.
▶ Keep the air inlet and air outlet clear of any obstacles to allow the air
to circulate freely. Otherwise poor performance and higher noise
levels may occur.
▶ Keep TV, radio and and similar appliances at least 1 m away from the
unit and the remote control.
▶ Do not install the indoor unit in rooms with a high humidity
(e.g. bathrooms or utility rooms).
▶ For ceiling-mounted installation: the ceiling construction and
suspension system (on site) must be able to support the weight of the
appliance.
▶ Floor-standing installation: the floor must be stable and able to
absorb vibrations.
Notices regarding outdoor units
▶ The outdoor unit must not be exposed to machine oil vapour, hot
spring vapour, sulphur gas, etc.
▶ Do not install the outdoor unit directly next to water or where it is
exposed to sea air.
▶ The outdoor unit must always be kept free of snow.
▶ There must be no disruption caused by extract air or operating noise.
▶ Air should be able to circulate freely around the outdoor unit, but the
appliance must not be exposed to strong wind.
▶ Condensate that forms during operation must be able to drain off
easily. Lay a drain hose if required. In cold regions, installation of the
drain pipe is not advisable as freezing could result.
▶ Place the outdoor unit on a stable base.
