• Follow the instructions in the Installation Manual to install the air

conditioner. Failure to follow these instructions may cause the product
to fall down or topple over or give rise to noise, vibration, water
leakage, etc.

• The designated bolts (M10) and nuts (M10) for securing the outdoor

unit must be used when installing the unit.

• Install the outdoor unit property in a location that is durable enough to

support the weight of the outdoor unit. Insufficient durability may cause
the outdoor unit to fall, which may result in injury.

• If refrigerant gas has leaked during the installation work, ventilate the

room immediately. If the leaked refrigerant gas comes in contact with
fire, noxious gas may be generated.

• The installation of pipe work shall be kept to a minimum.

Refrigerant piping

• Install the refrigerant pipe securely during the installation work before

operating the air conditioner. If the compressor is operated with the
valve open and without refrigerant pipe, the compressor sucks air and
the refrigeration cycles is over pressurized, which may cause an injury.

• Tighten the flare nut with a torque wrench in the specified manner.

Excessive tighten of the flare nut may cause a crack in the flare nut
after a long period, which may result in refrigerant leakage.

• For installation and relocation work, follow the instructions in the

Installation Manual and use tools and pipe components specifically
made for use with R32 refrigerant. If pipe components not designed for
R32 refrigerant are used and the unit is not installed correctly, the
pipes may burst and cause damage or injuries. In addition, water
leakage, electric shock, or fire may result.

• Nitrogen gas must be used for the airtight test.
• The charge hose must be connected in such a way that it is not slack.

Electrical wiring

• Only a qualified installer(*1) or qualified service person(*1) is allowed

to carry out the electrical work of the air conditioner. Under no
circumstances must this work be done by an unqualified individual
since failure to carry out the work properly may result in electric shocks
and/or electrical leaks.

• The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring

regulations. Capacity shortages of the power circuit or an incomplete
installation may cause an electric shock or fire.

• Use wiring that meets the specifications in the Installation Manual and

the stipulations in the local regulations and laws. Use of wiring which
does not meet the specifications may give rise to electric shocks,
electrical leakage, smoking and/or a fire.

• Be sure to connect earth wire. (Grounding work)

Incomplete earthing causes an electric shock.

• Do not connect earth wires to gas pipes, water pipes, and lightning

rods or earth wires for telephone wires.

• After completing the repair or relocation work, check that the earth

wires are connected properly.

• Install a circuit breaker that meets the specifications in the installation

manual and the stipulations in the local regulations and laws.

• Install the circuit breaker where it can be easily accessed by the agent.
• When installing the circuit breaker outdoors, install one which is

designed to be used outdoors.

• Under no circumstances must the power cable be extended.

Connection trouble in the places where the cable is extended may give
rise to smoking and/or a fire.
