3.2. Drain installation
CAUTION
Perform drain work in accordance with this Manual, and ensure that the drain water
is properly drained. If the drain work is not carried out correctly, water may drip down
from the unit, wetting the furniture.
When the outdoor temperature is 0 °C or less, do not use the accessory drain pipe
and drain cap. If the drain pipe and drain cap are used, the drain water in the pipe may
freeze in extremely cold weather. (Reverse cycle model only)
As the drain water ows out of the outdoor unit during heating operation, install the •
drain pipe and connect it to a commercial 16 mm hose. (Reverse cycle model only)
When installing the drain pipe, plug all the holes other than the drain pipe mounting •
hole in the bottom of the outdoor unit with putty so there is no water leakage.

3.3. Installation dimensions
CAUTION
The installation space shown in the following examples is based on an ambient
temperature under cooling operation of 35 °C (DB) at the air intake of the outdoor unit.
Provide more space around the air intake than shown in the examples if the ambient
temperature exceeds 35 °C (DB) or if the thermal load of all of the outdoor units
exceeds the capacity.
Consider the transportation route, installation space, maintenance space, and access,
and install the unit in a location with sufcient space for the refrigerant piping.
Observe the installation space specications that are shown in the gures.
Keep the same space at rear air intake.
Provide the same space for the air intake at the rear of the outdoor unit.
If the installation is not performed according to the specications, it could cause a short
circuit and result in a lack of operating performance. As a result, the outdoor unit might
easily be stopped by high-pressure protection.
