WARNING
Please request your sales agent or qualified technician to install your unit. Water leakage, short circuit or fire may occur if you do the installation work yourself. Please observe the installation stated in the installation manual during the process of installation. Improper installation may causewater leakage, electric shock and fire. Make sure that the units are mounted at locations which are able to provide full support to the weight of the units. If not, the units may collapse and impose danger. Observe the rules and regulations of the electrical installation and the methods described in the installation manual when dealing with the electrical work. Use cables which are approved official in your country. Be sure to use the specified circuit. A short circuit andfire may occur due to the use of low quality wire or improper work. Be sure to use the specified cables for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. Please ensure that the connections are tight after theconductors of the wire are inserted into the terminals to prevent the external force is being applied to the connection section of theterminal base. Improper insertion and loose contact may cause over-heating and fire. Please use the specified components for installation work. Otherwise, the unit may collapse or water leakage, electric shock, fire orstronger vibration may occur. Be sure to use the specified piping set for R32. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper pipes or faults. When installing or transferring an air conditioner to another location, make sure that air other than the specified refrigerant( R32)does not enter the refrigeration cycle. If other air should enter, the pressure level of the refrigeration cycle may increase abnormally which could result in a rupture and injury. Be sure to ventilate fully if a refrigerant gas leak while at work. If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire, a poisonous gas mayoccur. After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage. If the refrigerant gas leaks into theroom, coming into contact with fire in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.
Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualified air conditionertechnician or electrician. Improper repairs may result in water leakage, electric shock and fire, etc. Be sure to connect the earth line from the power supply wire to the outdoor unit and betweenthe outdoor and indoor unit. Do not connect the earth line to the gas tube, water pipe, lighting rod or the earth line of thetelephone unit. Improper earthing may cause electric shocks.
R410A R32)

CAUTION
Acircuit breaker must be installed in the house distribution box for the direct connected power supply cables to theoutdoor unit. In case of otherinstallations a main switch with a contact gap or more than 3mm has to be installed.Without a circuit breaker, the danger of electric shock exists.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is flammable gas. The outdoor unit may catch fireif flammable gas leaks around it.
Please ensure smooth flow of water when installing the drain hose. Improper installing may wet your furniture.
An IEC approved power cord should be used. Power cord type: NYM. No nearby heat source and no obstruction near the air outlet is allowed. The clearance distances from top, right and left are specified in figure below. The location must be convenient for water drainage and pipe connection with the Outdoor unit. No nearby leakage risk of flammable gas, and no nearby source of vapor or oil smoke. To avoid interference from noise, please place the unit and its remote controller at least 1m from the radio and television. To avoid any error in signal transmission from the remote controller, please put the controller far away from high- frequency machines and high-powerwireless systems. The installation height should be at least 2300 mm or more from the floor. The distance from the air outlet to the fire alarm must be at least 1500mm and there must be no fire alarm in the front direction of the indoor unit.

THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE
(Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation.)
WARNING
The unit should be mounted at stable, non-vibratory location which can provide full support to the unit.
When finishing the refrigerant collection (pumping down), stop the compressor and then remove the coolant pipe.If you remove the refrigerant pipe while the compressor is operating and the service valve is released, air is sucked and apressure in the freezing cycle system will build up steeply, causing an explosion or injury. When installing the unit, be sure to install the refrigerant pipe before starting the compressor. If the refrigerant pipe is not installed and the compressor is operated with the service valve released, air is sucked and the pressure level of the refrigeration cycle may increase abnormally which could result in a rupture and injury.
The electric cables should neither be reworked nor added.Make sure to use an exclusive circuit breaker. Otherwise fire or electric shock might occur by connection failure, isolation failure or over current. Make sure to connect cables to terminal properly and terminal cover should close firmly. Otherwise, over heating at terminal contact, fire or electric shock might occur. Make sure that there is no dust on any connected points of electric cables and fix firmly. Otherwise, fire or electric shock might occur.

Be sure to completely seal any gap with putty.

3 Heat Insulation and Finish of the Piping

The connected terminals should be completed sealed with heat insulator and then tied up with rubber strap. Do not tie the terminals with the tape too tight. If any clearance or over-tightening may cause condensation. Please tie the pipe and power line together with vinyl tape as shown in the figure showing the installation of Indoor and Outdoor units. To enhance the heat insulation and to prevent water condensation, please cover the outdoor part of the drain hose and pipe with insulation pipe. Completely seal any gap with putty.
