b. Make sure that the space to the right and left is at least 120 mm and space above the unit is at least 150 mm. (figure 1).
c. The indoor unit must be installed at a minimum height of 2 metres and maximum of 3 metres from the floor.
d. The wall where the indoor unit is to be fixed, must be stable, strong and suitable to support the weight.
e. There must be no obstacles for the free circulation of air both from the inlet side and especially the outlet side. In particular, there must be no obstacles within a distance of 2000 mm.
A shorter distance could cause turbulence such to prevent correct operation of the appliance.
f. If possible, install the unit on an outdoor wall, in a way to be able to convey condensate draining to the outside.
g. The indoor unit must not be in a position such that the air flow is aimed directly at the persons below (figure 3).
h. The indoor unit must not be installed directly above household appliances (television, radio, refrigerator, etc.) or above a heat source (figure 2).
i. Install the indoor unit in a way that there are no obstacles, which do not allow the signals emitted by the remote control to be received (figure 4).
2.2 – INSTALLATION OF THE INSIDE UNIT
2.2.1 – Installation of fastening plate
After having checked that described in paragraph “2.2”, assemble the fixing plate (7) taking the dimensions stated in figure X1 into consideration.
a. Position the plate against the wall.
b. Mark the drilling points, making sure that they are level.
c. Make the holes necessary in the wall using a suitable bit.
Make sure there are no pipes or electric ducts in the drilling area.

d. Insert the plugs (4) into the holes and fix the plate (7) to the wall using the screws (3) supplied (figure 5).
Using a spirit level, make sure that the fixing plate (7) is level.

e. If the wall is in wood, use relevant countersunk-head screws (not supplied).
f. Check the stability of the plate (7), moving it laterally and vertically.
2.2.2 – Realisation of pipe passage holes
If the connection lines arrive from the rear right of the indoor unit, a hole “R” must be made for passage of the piping, as successively described (see figure X1).
a. Make a 6÷7 mm hole in the centre of the position “R”, with slope towards the outdoors of 5% (to allow condensate to be drained correctly (figure 6).
b. Make the hole “R” using a core drill with the diameter indicated in the table of figure X1.
c. Insert the drain line piping and that of refrigeration into the hole along with the electric connection cable.
If the connection lines arrive from the rear left of the indoor unit, a hole “L” must be made for passage of the piping (see figure X1).

2.2.3 – Piping connection
a. Based on the position of the wall hole with respect to the mounting plate, choose the side from which it is wished the refrigerant pipes come out from the unit.
b. If the wall hole is located at the side of the internal unit, remove the precut plastic panel from the unit side.
It is possible to use pliers to ease the opening of the precut panel (fig.7).

The refrigerant pipes can come out from the internal unit with four different angles:

• Left side
• Rear side to the left
• Right side
• Rear side to the right

Please refer to figure 7 for further details.

c. Attach the upper bracket present in the rear part of the indoor unit to the upper hook of the fixing bracket (pos. L – figure 8).
d. Move the unit laterally to ensure it is correctly attached to the fixing hook (7).
e. If the connection pipes are already fitted in the wall, directly proceed with the connection of the drain pipe.
Piping connection is easily performed by lifting the indoor unit and introducing cladding between the same and the wall (pos. N – figure 8). Remove the cladding once connection has been completed.
f. Push the lower part of the indoor unit towards the wall to attach it to the fixing bracket (pos. M – figure 8).
g. Try and move the indoor unit laterally and vertically to make sure that it is attached securely.

2.2.4 – Drain pipe connection (figure 9)
a. Insert the drain pipe (A), making sure that it slopes downwards.
b. If necessary, connect an extension (C) to the drain pipe, isolate the joint with a protection pipe (B).
Tightly wind the connection point with a Teflon tape so as to ensure good tightness and impede possible leakage. The part of the drain pipe which remains inside shall be wrapped in a foam rubber sleeve to impede the formation of condensation.
c. Remove the air filter and pour a small quantity of water inside the drain tray to check that water flows out correctly from the unit.
2.2.5 – Piping and protection wrapping connection (figure 10)
Evenly wrap the connection cable, drain pipe and electric cables with electrical tape, as illustrated in figure 10.
Given that the condensate water from the rear of the indoor water is collected in the “Pond Box” tray and taken out of the compartment, do not put anything in the tray.

2.2.6 – Connection of the condensate drain line
Connect a drain pipe, of appropriate length, to the indoor unit condensate drain pipe, and block it with a strap.
Make it run inside the duct parallel to the system pipes, fastening it to the same using straps.
Do not tighten the straps excessively in order to prevent damage to the insulation of the pipes and narrow the drain pipe.
Where possible, make the condensate liquid flow directly into a rainwater gutter.
If the drain pipe is fed into a sewage system, it is necessary to bend the pipe in order to create a siphon (figure 20), in order to avoid the diffusion of unpleasant odours into the environment.
The siphon bend must never be at a level below 1500 mm from the lower wire of the appli-ance (figure 20).
If draining is into a recipient (figure 21), this must never be closed so as not to prevent counter-pressures such to compromise the operation, and the pipe itself must never reach the level of the liquid deposited.
Check the correct run-off of the condensate liquid through the relative pipe by very slowly pouring approx. 1/2 litre of water into the collection tray of the indoor unit (figure 22).
2.3 – ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
2.3.1 – Electric connection between indoor and outdoor units

USE AND MAINTENANCE

3.1 – USE OF THE REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control supplied with the air-conditioner is the instrument that enables you to use the appliance in the most convenient way.

It should be handled with care and in particular:

• Keep it dry (do not clean it with water or leave it outdoors in bad weather).

• Avoid dropping or bumping it.

• Keep it out of direct sunlight.

• The remote control operates by means of an infrared beam.

• During use, there must not be any obstacle between the remote control and the air-conditioner.

• If other appliances in the room have remote controls (TV, stereo, etc…), there may be interference.

• Electronic and fluorescent lights may also interfere with transmissions between remote control and air-conditioner.

• Remove the batteries in case of prolonged disuse of the remote control.

3.1.1 – Insertion of batteries
The remote control is not supplied with batteries.
To insert the batteries correctly (figure 24-25):
a. Remove the batteries compartment cover.
b. Insert the batteries into the relevant compartment.
Check the polarity indicated on the bottom of the compartment .
c. Close the compartment correctly.
3.1.2 – Replacement of batteries
The batteries should be replaced when the display on the remote control does not appear sharply or when the remote control does not change the settings.
Always use new batteries and replace both at the same time.
The use of old or different batteries could generate malfunctioning of the remote control.
The remote control uses two dry alkaline 1.5V batteries (AAA.LR03/LR03X2).
When the batteries have been replaced, adjust the remote control clock.
When replacing batteries, replace both and dispose of the dead batteries in the appropriate collection centres and as required by law.

• If the remote control is not used for several weeks or longer, remove the batteries.
  Any leaks from the batteries could damage the remote control.

• The average life-span of the batteries, with normal use, is approx. six months. Replace the batteries when the indoor unit command receipt “beep” can no longer be heard, or if the transmission indicator on the remote control does not switch on.

Do not re-charge or disassemble the batteries. Do not throw the batteries into the fire. They can burn and explode.
If the battery liquid falls onto the skin or clothes, wash well with clean water. Do not use the remote control with batteries that have leaked. The chemical products contained in the batteries can cause burns or other risks to health.

3.1.3 – Location of the remote controller

• Keep the remote control in a position from which the signal can reach the indoor unit receiver (max.
  distance approx. 8 metres – with the batteries charged) (figure 26).
  The presence of obstacles (furniture, curtains, walls, etc.) between the remote control and indoor unit, reduces the capacity of the remote control.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Before proceeding with any maintenance and cleaning, always make sure the system has been switched off, using the remote control, and the power supply plug has been disconnected from the system socket (or the upstream master isolating switch is positioned at “0” OFF).
Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the air filters.
They are very sharp. Cuts or injury risk.
4.1 – CLEANING
4.1.1 – Cleaning the indoor unit and remote controller
Use a dry cloth to clean the indoor unit and the remote control.
A cloth dampened in cold water can be used to clean the indoor unit if it is very dirty.
The front panel can be removed and cleaned with water. Dry using a dry cloth.
Do not use a chemically-treated or anti-static cloth to clean the unit.
Do not use gasoline, solvent, polish or similar solvents.
These products could cause the breakage or deformation of the plastic surface.
4.1.2 – Cleaning the air filter (fig. 35, 37, 38 and 39)
A clogged air filter reduces the cooling efficiency of this unit. Please clean the filter once every 2 weeks.
a. Lift the indoor unit panel up to an angle until it stops with a clicking sound (fig. 35).
b. Take hold of the handle of the air filter and lift it up slightly to take it out from the filter holder (fig. 37a), then pull it downwards (figura 37b).
c. Remove the air filter.
d. Clean the air filter using a suction device or wash it with water and then dry it in a cool place.
e. Remove the refreshing filter (if supplied) from the air filter as shown in figure “38”.
Do not touch this Electrostatic Filter within 10 minutes after opening the inlet grille, it may cause an electric shock.
f. Clean the Electrostatic Filter with mild detergent or water and dry in the sunlight for two hours.
g. Insert the electrostatic filter again (if supplied) + the active charcoal filter (if supplied).
h. Insert the upper part of the air filter into the unit, paying attention that the left and right edges are correctly aligned and then re-position the filter in the relevant seat (figure 39).
i. Close the panel well, taking it back to its original position.
4.2 – MAINTENANCE
If you plan to idle the unit for a long time, perform the following:
a. Activate the fan for approx. half a day to dry the inside of the unit.
b. Stop the air conditioner and disconnect the power supply.
c. Remove the batteries from the remote control.
The outdoor unit requires maintenance interventions and periodic cleaning.
DO NOT PERFORM THEM ALONE.
Contact the dealer or after-sales assistance service.
Checks before resuming use of the air conditioner:
a. Check that the wires are not broken or disconnected.
b. Check that the air filter is clean and installed correctly.
Clean the filters after a long period of inactivity of the air conditioner.
c. Check that the air outlet or inlet are not obstructed (especially after a long period of inactivity of the air conditioner).
Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter.
There is a risk of injury due to the sharp metal edges.
Do not use water to clean the internal parts of the air conditioner.
Exposure to water can ruin the isolation, with the risk of electric shocks.
When cleaning the unit, make sure the switch is off and the power supply is disconnected.
4.2.1 – RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ENERGY SAVINGS
Below find simple recommendations for reducing consumption:

• Always and constantly keep the filters clean (see maintenance and cleaning chapter).
• Keep the doors and windows of the rooms to be climate controlled closed.
• Avoid the sun’s rays penetrating freely into the room (we recommend using curtains or lowering blinds or closing the shutters).
• Do not obstruct the unit air flow (inlet and outlet), i.e. in addition to bad performance of the system, it also affects correct operation and the possibility of irreparable faults to the units.

4.3 – FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS NOT TO BE MISTAKEN FOR ANOMALIES
The following events may occur during normal operation:

1. SLIGHT AIR CONDITIONER NOISE
   – A low hissing noise may be heard when the compressor is running, or has just been switched off.
   It is the noise of the refrigerant running or stopping.
   – A low “squeaking” noise may also be heard when the compressor is running, or has just been switched off. This is caused by expansion due to the heat or contraction due to cold of the plastic parts of the unit, when the temperature changes.
   – A noise may be heard due to the louvre restoring itself to its original position on commissioning.

2. DUST IS BLOWN OUT FROM THE INDOOR UNIT
   – This is normal when the air conditioner is re-started after a long period of inactivity, or is used for the first time.

3. A STRANGE ODOUR IS DETECTED COMING FROM THE INDOOR UNIT
   – It is caused by the indoor unit, which releases the odours absorbed by the construction materials, the furnishings or from smoking.

4. LIGHTENING OR ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT
   – Lightening or wireless phones working in the vicinity could cause the air conditioner to malfunction.

4.4 – TROUBLESHOOTING

1. The unit may stop running or keep running safely if:
   – the LEDs keep flashing
   – on the display appears one of the following codes:
   E(x), P(x), F(x), EH(xx), EL(xx), EC(xx), PH(xx), PL(xx), PC(xx)
   Wait approximately 10 minutes; the problem may solve by itself.
   If not, disconnect power supply and reconnect it. Switch on the unit.
   If the problem persists, disconnect the unit from the power supply and contact the closest service centre.

2. Stop the air conditioner immediately is one of the following anomalies occurs.
   Disconnect the electric power supply and contact the nearest after-sales assistance service.
   Problem:
   – The fuses blow frequently or the automatic switch intervenes often.
   – Water or other objects have entered the air conditioner.
   – The remote control does not function or functions anomalously.
