The appliance weighs 32.5 kg. In order to comply with Health and Safety Manual
Handling guidelines, two people will be required to lift it. Transport and
store in an upright position. Leave the unit in an upright position for at
least 3 hours before first use. Choose the optimum location for the appliance:
It must be on an external wall with 2 m free clearance on both inside and
outside to allow good airflow, and more than 1 m from the ceiling. The wall
must be able to withstand the weight of the unit. The wall must be perfectly
flat. There must be no electrical wiring, gas pipes, or structural steelwork
in the wall in the area where the appliance is to be mounted. Attach the
template to the wall using masking tape. Use a spirit level to ensure that it
is perfectly level.
Drill the fixing holes shown in black, and insert wall plugs. Using a 135 mm core drill, drill the two air intake holes. These should be drilled with a downwards slope of between 3° and 5° to make sure that any water will drain out. Using a 30 mm masonry bit, or a core drill, drill the hole for the water drain. This MUST have a downward slope of between Install the grilles into the air intake and exhaust tubes. Cut the air intake and exhaust tubes so that they are 10 mm less then the thickness of the wall. Attach the flanges for the air intake and exhaust tubes to the tubes using the 10 mm screws provided. Then fix the tube/flange assembly into the hole. If the outside wall is accessible, fill the area between the tubes and the wall using expanding foam, and attach the rubber rings to the outside of the wall using the screws provided, then fit the drainage tube into the 30 mm hole and seal with foam as above.
If the outside of the wall is not accessible, proceed as follows.
-
Attach the nylon cords to the rubber ring as shown.
Fold the rubber ring in half and pass it through the hole, keeping hold of the other ends of the nylon cords. -
Slide the tube (with the inside flange attached) into the hole,passing the nylon cords through the tube. Pull the nylon cords towards you, and will a little manipulation, the rubber ring will fit on to the exterior wall.
-
Seal the area between the tube and the hole with expanding polyurethane foam, and then push the tube completely into the hole. (Note that the intake tube is only 120 mm in diameter: make sure that the tube is centred in the hole)
-
Attach the cords to the tabs on the interior flange and pull tight
Attach the hanging bracket to the fixing holes, using the screws provided. Connect the drain hose provided to the rear drain outlet. A further extension pipe with an internal diameter of 16 mm can be fitted if required. Care must be taken to ensure that the drain always runs downwards. With two people, lifting the appliance by it sides, not the front cover, hang it on the fixing bracket, and push firmly against the wall, ensuring that the drain pipe engages with the drainage hole, and that the main unit fits flush against the wall. If there are any gaps between the unit and the wall, heating and cooling performance will be impaired.If the drain pipe
does not engage properly with the drain tube in the wall, leakage will occur. If the mains lead is fitted with a Schuko plug (with two round pins), either fit the 13 A plug adaptor provided, or remove the Schuko plug and fit a 13 A plug. Alternatively, remove the plug and wire to the mains supply via a switched fused spur.
SETTING UP THE REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET
Open the battery compartment cover, fit two AAA batteries, and replace the cover. Immediately after fitting the batteries, the HEAT and COOL icons on the handset display will flash alternately. Press the MODE button whilst the HEAT icon is shown. If this step is not performed, it will not be possible to select HEAT from the remote control handset. Repeat this procedure every time the batteries are replaced. Press the CLOCK button, then, using the HR (hour) and MIN (minute) buttons, set the clock to the correct time. Then press the CLOCK button again. The remote control handset is now ready for use.
