Note: When viewed from the front of the indoor 
unit. 
 
2.4.2.1.1 Route the indoor tubing and the drain 
hose in the direction of rear right. 
2.4.2.1.2 Insert the connecting cable into the 
indoor unit from the outdoor unit through the 
piping hole.

●  Make a small loop with the cable for easy 
connection later. 
2.4.2.1.3 Tape the tubing, drain hose and the 
connecting cable. Be sure that the drain hose is 
located at the lowest side of the bundle. Locating 
at the upper side can cause drain pan to overflow 
inside the unit. 
 
Note: If the drain hose is routed inside the room,   
insulate the hose with an insulation material so 
that dripping from "sweating" (condensation) will 
not damage furniture or floors. 
*Foamed polyethylene or equivalent is 
recommended.

properly seated on the installation plate by moving 
the indoor unit left and right. 
●  Press the lower left and right sides of the unit 
against the installation plate until the hooks 
engage into their slots (clicking sound).
