INSTALLATION
OF THE UNIT.
4.1 OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION POSITION.
Determine the installation site considering the following condi-
tions and get the user’s approval.
- e outdoor unit must not be positioned on its side or upside
down, as the lubricating oil of the compressor could enter the
cooling circuit and seriously damage the unit.
- Choose a dry and sunny position, though not exposed to direct
sunlight or to strong wind.
- Do not block passages or exit routes.
- Choose a position where the noise of the condensing unit during
operation or the discharge air do not disturb neighbours.
- Choose a position where the pipes and cables can be easily con-
nected to another hydraulic system.
- Install the outdoor unit on a at and stable surface capable of
bearing its weight and which does not generate any useless noise
and vibrations.
- Position the outdoor unit so that the air ow is directed outdoors.
- Position the outdoor unit where there are no trees or animals
which could impair its operation.
- Leave sucient space around the outdoor unit, especially for
radios, computers, stereo systems, etc.
4.2 INSTALLATION GUIDE NEAR THE SEA.
Make sure to follow these guidelines for installation along the
sea coast.
1. Do not install the appliance where it is directly exposed to sea
water or breeze.
- Install the product behind a structure (like a building) which
can block the sea breeze.
- Even when it is inevitable to install the appliance along the
seacoast, make sure it is not exposed directly to the sea breeze
by installing a protective wall.
2. Consider that the saline particles which adhere to the external
panels must be suciently washed.
3. Since residual water at the bottom of the outdoor unit signif-
icantly promotes corrosion, make sure the slope does not aect
drainage.
- Keep the oor level so that rain does not make any puddles.
- Be careful not to obstruct the drain hole with foreign substances
4. When the appliance is installed on the beach, clean it regularly
with water to remove any attached salinity.
5. Make sure to install the appliance where water can be drained
conveniently. In particular, make sure that the part of the base
drains well.
6. If the appliance is drained during installation or maintenance,
make sure to restore it.
7. Regularly check the condition of the product.
- Check the installation site every 3 months and perform an
anti-corrosion treatment with grease and water-repellent wax
according to the conditions of the appliance.
- Take appropriate measures to cover the product when it needs
to be stopped for a long period of time, for example peak hours.
8. e product requires a special anti-corrosion treatment if
installed within 500 m from the sea.
For further information, contact the Authorised Technical As-
sistance Centre.
e protective wall must be built with solid and stur-
dy material capable of blocking the sea breeze and
its height and width must be 1.5 times larger than
those of the outdoor unit. (To guarantee ventilation,
the protective wall must be at least 700 mm from the
outdoor unit).
