• Standard piping length is 5m.
• When the outdoor unit is placed at a higher level than the 
indoor unit, provide a trap near the hose’s lead-in port. 
Use the refrigerant pipes shown in the table below.

ACCESSORIES
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•  Installation must be made in accordance with the installation manual by 
qualifi ed service personnel. 
Incorrect work will cause electric shock, water leak, fi re.
• 
Be sure to use the attached accessories parts and specifi ed parts for installation.
Use of other parts will cause electric shock, water leak, fi re, the unit falling.
•  The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.
Wrong connection can cause overheating or fi re.
•  After installation has complete, check that there is no leakage of refrigerant 
gas.
If the refrigerant gas contact with fi re, it may generate toxic gas.
•  Ventilate the room if refrigerant gas leaks during installation.
If the refrigerant gas contact with fi re, it may generate toxic gas.
•  Use the specifi ed electrical cable.
Make 
sure the cable is secured
 in place and that the terminals are free of any 
excess force from the 
cable. Otherwise overheating
 or fi re may result.
•  Form the cable so that the control box cover, the cord holder and cable 
holder are not loose. 
Otherwise overheating, fi re or electric shock may result.
70 mm or more
Indoor unit
1. Keep the air outlet clear of any obstacle so that outgoing air fl ows 
smoothly in the entire room.
2. 
Make a drain hose hole for easy drainage.
3. 
Provide suffi cient space on
 both sides and above the unit.
4. The air fi lters should be easily taken in and out.
5. 
Keep TV set, radio and the like 1 m or more away from the 
unit and 
the remote control.
6. Keep the air inlet clear of obstacles that could block incoming air.
7. 
The remote control may not function properly in a room equipped
 
with 
an electronic simultaneous-start or rapid-start fl uorescent
 
lighting.
8. 
Select a location that does not cause loud operation noise 
and ex-
treme vibrations.
Outdoor unit 
1. Place the outdoor unit on a stable base.
2. 
Provided 
suffi cient space around the unit. It should also be well ventilated.
3. 
The unit should not be exposed to strong wind nor splashed with rain 
water.
4. Water drain from the unit should be let out without problem. 
Lay a drain hose if required.
5. 
Keep TV set, radio and the like 1 m or more away from the unit
.
6. Avoid locations exposed to machine oil vapor, salty air (facing the seashore, 
for example), 
hot spring vapor sulfur gas, etc. Such location can cause
 breakdown.
7. 
Avoid locations exposed to muddy water (along a road, for example) or 
where the unit can be 
tampered with.
8. 
Select a location where the outgoing air or operating noise cannot annoy
 others.
9. Keep the air outlet opening free of any obstacle. This could affect the performance of the unit 
and create loud noises.
Trap
• Tighten the fl are nut with a torque wrench according to the specifi ed method. 
If the fl are nut is tightened too hard, the fl are nut may be broken after a long time 
and cause refrigerant gas leakage.
•  When installing the unit, take care not to enter air substance other than the 
specifi ed refrigerant(R410A) in the refrigerant cycle. 
Otherwise, it will cause burst and injury as a result of abnormal high pressure in the 
refrigerant cycle.
•  Be sure to connect the refrigerant pipe before running the compressor. 
Otherwise, it will cause burst and injury as a result of abnormal high pressure in the 
refrigerant cycle. 
•  Earth the unit. 
Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock.
•  Install an earth leakage breaker to avoid electric shock in case of leak.
Use the current-activated, high-sensitivity, high-speed type breaker with a rated 
sensitivity current of below 30 mA and an operating time of below 0.1 second.
•  Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage.
Insuffi cient drainage may cause wetting of the room, furniture etc.
•  This room air conditioner uses refrigerant R410A.
Use the pipe, fl are nut and tools exclusively for R410A.
Carefully read and follow these instructions for smooth and trouble-free installation.
