CAUTION
The appliance must be placed in a
well-ventilated room, with a minimum surface
area that varies according to the amount of
refrigerant present.
To calculate the minimum area of the installation room,
proceed as described below:
– determine the total refrigerant charge (see section
“3.1.1 Refrigerant charge” of the outdoor unit
manual)
– identify the refrigerant charge value in the table
below and derive the respective minimum area
required for the installation room.

The following information can help you choose a suitable
location for the indoor unit.
The installation location must have the following
characteristics:
– good air circulation
– ease of drainage
– the noise emitted by the unit must not disturb other
people
– stability and robustness - no exposure to vibration
– sucient capacity to support the weight of the unit
– at least one metre away from any other electrical
device (e.g. TV, radio, computer)
d
It is PROHIBITED to install the indoor
unit in the following locations:
– near sources of heat, steam or combustible
gas;
– near flammable objects, such as curtains or
fabrics;
– near obstacles that could obstruct air
circulation;
– near the entrance;
– In a an area that is not exposed to direct
sunlight.

NOTE ON THE HOLE IN THE WALL
If there is no fixed refrigerant piping:
When choosing the installation position, it is
recommended to provide a suciently large
space for the wall hole (see paragraph “2.4.3
Preparation for connection pipes”) in which
to insert the signal cable and the refrigerant
piping between the indoor and outdoor units.
The usual position for cables and pipes is on
the right side of the indoor unit (looking at the
unit). However, the unit supports installation of
cables and piping both on the left and on the
right.
