Explanation of symbols displayed

on the indoor unit or outdoor unit

(applicable to the unit adopts R32/

R290 Refrigerant only):

WARNING

This symbol shows that this

appliance uses a 󰘱ammable

refrigerant. If the refrigerant is

leaked exposed to an external

ignition source, there is a risk of 󰘰re.

CAUTION

This symbol shows that the

operation manual should be read

carefully.

CAUTION

This symbol shows that a service

personnel should be handling this

equipment with reference to the

installation manual.

CAUTION

This symbol shows that

installation manual.

R32 refrigerant warning

This product uses R32

di󰘱uoromethane refrigerant, which

is a mildly 󰘱ammable gas class

2.2 according to ISO 5149 and

must be handled by a refrigeration

mechanic with appropriate

refrigerant handling licence.

F-Gas

Refrigerant: R32;

Refrigerant leakage contributes to

climate change. Refrigerant with lower

global warming potential (GWP) would

contribute less to global warming than

a refrigerant with higher GWP, if leaked

to the atmosphere. This appliance

contains a refrigerant 󰘱uid with a GWP

equal to 675. This means that if 1 kg

of this refrigerant 󰘱uid would be leaked

to the atmosphere, the impact on global

warming would be 675 times higher than

1 kg of CO2, over a period of 100 years.

Never try to interfere with the refrigerant

circuit yourself or disassemble the

product yourself and always ask

a professional. The product or equipment

contains 󰘱uorinated greenhouse gases,

and the 󰘱uorinated greenhouse gases

are contained in hermetically sealed

equipment.

4.2 Safety Precautions

CAUTION

• To prevent wall damage, use

a stud 󰘰nder to locate studs.

• A minimum pipe run of 3 metres

is required to minimise vibration

& excessive noise.

• Two of the A, B, and C air

circulation pathways must be

free from obstructions at all

times.

demonstration purposes only.

• The actual shape of your air

condtioner may be slightly

di󰘯erent.

6. OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION

6.1 Outdoor Unit Installation

Instructions

Step 1: Select installation location.

The outdoor unit should be installed in

the location that meets the following

requirements:

• Place the outdoor unit as close

to the indoor unit as possible.

• Ensure that there is enough room

for installation and maintenance.

• The air inlet and outlet must not be

obstructed or exposed to strong wind.

• Ensure the location of the unit will not

be subject to snowdrifts, accumulation

of leaves or other seasonal debris.

If possible, provide an awning for

the unit. Ensure the awning does

not obstruct air󰘱ow.

• The installation area must be dry and

well ventilated.

• There must be enough room to install

the connecting pipes and cables and

to access them for maintenance.

6WURQJZLQG

6WURQJZLQ

Fig. 6.1

• The area must be free of combustible

gases and chemicals.

• The pipe length between the outdoor

and indoor unit may not exceed the

maximum allowable pipe length.

• If possible, DO NOT install the unit

where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

• If possible, make sure the unit is

located far away from your neighbors’

property so that the noise from the unit

will not disturb them.

• If the location is exposed to strong

winds (for example: near a seaside),

the unit must be placed against the wall

to shelter it from the wind. If necessary,

use an awning. (See Fig. 6.1 & 6.2)

• Install the indoor and outdoor units,

cables and wires at least 1 meter from

televisions or radios to prevent static

or image distortion. Depending on the

radio waves, a 1 meter distance may not

be enough to eliminate all interference.
