3. When connecting extension drain hose, insulate the connecting part of
extension drain hose with shield pipe.
NOTE
• The hole should be made at a slight downward slant on the outdoor side.
Arrange the drain pipe for proper drainage from the unit.
Improper drainage can result in dew-dropping.

This air conditioner has the structure designed
to drain water collected from dew, which forms
on the back of the indoor unit, to the drain pan.
Therefore, do not store the power cord and other
parts at a height above the drain guide.
