Carefully follow the precautions listed below because 
they are essential to guarantee the safety of both the air 
conditioner and the workers.

• 

Always disconnect the air conditioner from the power 
supply before servicing it or accessing its internal 
components. 

• 

Verify that installation and testing operations are 
performed by qualified personnel. 

• 

Verify that the air conditioner is not installed in an 
easily accessible area. 

General information

• 

Carefully read the content of this manual before 
installing the air conditioner and store the manual in 
a safe place in order to be able to use it as reference 
after installation. 

• 

For maximum safety, installers should always 
carefully read the following warnings. 

• 

Store the operation and installation manual in a safe 
location and remember to hand it over to the new 
owner if the air conditioner is sold or transferred. 

• 

This manual explains how to install an indoor unit 
with a split system with two SAMSUNG units. The use 
of other types of units with different control systems 
may damage the units and invalidate the warranty. 
The manufacturer shall not be responsible for 
damages arising from the use of non compliant units. 

• 

This product has been determined to be in compliance 
with the Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC) and the 
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (2004/108/
EC) of the European Union.

• 

The manufacturer shall not be responsible for damage 
originating from unauthorised changes or the 
improper connection of electric and requirements set 
forth in the “Operating limits” table, included in the 
manual, shall immediately invalidate the warranty. 

• 

The air conditioner should be used only for the 
applications for which it has been designed: the 
indoor unit is not suitable to be installed in areas 
used for laundry. 

• 

Do not use the units if damaged. If problems occur, 
switch the unit off and disconnect it from the power 
supply.

• 

In order to help prevent electric shocks, fires or 
injuries, always stop the unit, disable the protection 

switch and contact SAMSUNG’s technical support if 

the unit produces smoke, if the power cable is hot or 
damaged or if the unit is very noisy. 

• 

Always remember to inspect the unit, electric 
connections, refrigerant tubes and protections 
regularly. These operations should be performed by 
qualified personnel only. 

• 

The unit contains moving parts, which should always 
be kept out of the reach of children. 

• 

Do not attempt to repair, move, alter or reinstall the 
unit. If performed by unauthorised personnel, these 
operations may cause electric shocks or fires. 

• 

Do not place containers with liquids or other objects 
on the unit. 

• 

All the materials used for the manufacture and 
packaging of the air conditioner are recyclable. 

• 

The packing material and exhaust batteries of the 
remote control (optional) must be disposed of in 
accordance with current laws. 

• 

The air conditioner contains a refrigerant that has 
to be disposed of as special waste. At the end of its 
life cycle, the air conditioner must be disposed of in 
authorised centres or returned to the retailer so that 
it can be disposed of correctly and safely.

Installation of the unit

• 

IMPORTANT: When installing the unit, always 
remember to connect first the refrigerant tubes, then 
the electrical lines. Always disassemble the electric 
lines before the refrigerant tubes. 

• 

Upon receipt, inspect the product to verify that 
it has not been damaged during transport. If the 
product appears damaged, DO NOT INSTALL it and 
immediately report the damage to the carrier or 
retailer (if the installer or the authorised technician 
has collected the material from the retailer.) 

• 

After completing the installation, always carry out a 
functional test and provide the instructions on how to 
operate the air conditioner to the user.

• 

Do not use the air conditioner in environments with 
hazardous substances or close to equipment that 
release free flames to avoid the occurrence of fires, 
explosions or injuries.
