Deciding on Where to Install the Air Conditioner
E-4
When deciding on the location of the air conditioner with the owner, the following restrictions
must be taken into account.
General
Do NOT install the air conditioner in a location where it will come into contact with the following elements:
◆ Combustible gases
◆ Saline air
◆ Machine oil
◆ Sulphide gas
◆ Special environmental conditions
If you must install the unit in such conditions, first consult your dealer.
Indoor Unit
◆ There must be no obstacles near the air inlet and outlet.
◆ Install the indoor unit on a surface that can support its weight.
◆ Choose a position that enables the piping and cables to be easily connected to the outdoor unit and the
recommended length of 5 metres to be respected.
◆ Leave enough clearance beneath the indoor unit to enable the filters to be removed without hindrance.
◆ Maintain sufficient clearance around the indoor unit, as indicated in the diagram on the page opposite.
◆ Make sure that the water dripping from the drain hose runs away correctly and safely.
Outdoor Unit
◆ The outdoor unit must NEVER be placed on its side or upside down, as the compressor lubrication oil will run into the
cooling circuit and seriously damage the unit.
◆ Choose a location that is dry and sunny, but not exposed to direct sunlight or strong winds.
◆ Do not block any passageways or thoroughfares.
◆ Choose a location where the noise of the air conditioner when running and the discharged air do not disturb any
neighbours.
◆ Choose a position that enables the piping and cables to be easily connected to the indoor unit and the recommended
length of 5 metres to be respected.
◆ Install the outdoor unit on a flat, stable surface that can support its weight and does not generate any unnecessary
noise and vibration.
◆ Position the outdoor unit so that the air flow is directed towards the outside, as indicated by the arrows on the top of
the unit.
◆ Maintain sufficient clearance around the outdoor unit, as indicated in the diagram on the page opposite.
◆ If the outdoor unit is installed at a height, ensure that its base is firmly fixed in position; the maximum height(“H”:
indicated in the diagram on the page opposite.) is 7 metres.
◆ Make sure that the water dripping from the drain hose runs away correctly and safely.
◆ You have just purchased a split-type room air conditioner and it has
been installed by your installation specialist.
◆ This device must be installed according to the national electrical rules.
