• Select a suitable installation location, considering the air
distribution from each indoor unit to the whole room so that
room temperature will be uniform.
• Install the unit where there is no obstacles which may
hamper the suction air and discharged air.
• Do not install the unit near a door or a window where the
indoor unit may contact humid outside air. Otherwise, dew
condensation may occur.

• If installing the indoor unit to a high ceiling, the warmed air
may stay around the ceiling during heating operation. Thus,
the parallel installing of a circulator is recommended.

outlet blows directly to the temperature detecting devices
such an alarm device or a control device. It may cause a
failure of an alarm device or a control device.
• Multiple Combinations. For simultaneous operation of
multiple units (twin, triple and quad combination), the units
must be installed in the same room and be operated under
the same conditions. If the room is partitioned by a wall,
furniture or a curtain, etc., it may cause an operation failure.
Take care when rearranging furniture or remodelling the
room after installation as well.
• When installing the receiver kit (optional) or the motion
sensor (optional), refer to their respective Installation
manuals.
• The installation height of the indoor units can be increased
when using High and High 2 fan speeds, as shown in the
table below.
