Before to Operation

Before Operation

1. Contact an installation specialist for installation.

2. Plug in the power plug properly.

3. Use a dedicated circuit.

4. Do not use an extension cord.

5. Do not start/stop operation by plugging/unplugging the power cord.

6. If the cord/plug is damaged, replace it with only an authorized replacement

part.

1. Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be

hazardous to your health. Do not expose occupants, pets, or plants to direct

airflow for extended periods of time.

2. Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate the room when used

together with stoves or other heating devices.

3. Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified special purposes (e.g.

preserving precision devices, food, pets, plants, and art objects). Such usage

could damage the items.

1. Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can

occur when handling sharp metal edges.

2. Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can

destroy the insulation, leading to possible electric shock.

3. When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned

off. The fan rotates at a very high speed during operation. There is a

possibility of injury if the unit’s power is accidentally triggered on while

cleaning inner parts of the unit.

For repair and maintenance, contact your authorized service dealer.

Installation

Select the Best Location

1. Measure the space for installation to assure a

good fit. The air conditioner must be installed

firmly into place to prevent vibration and noise.

2. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.

3. Remove all obstacles from the rear of the unit.

There must be at least 50cm (20in.) of cleared

space around the rear of the unit. Obstacles

restricting the airflow may reduce the cooling

efficiency of the unit.

4. The unit should be installed with a slight tilt

towards the outside (approx. 3°) to allow

condensed water to drain. (About 10~15mm or

1/4 bubble with level)

The external grille must be exposed

outside for air discharge.

NOTICE

Remove the Air Conditioner From the Case

1. Remove 2 shipping screws from the back of the case.

2. Remove the 2 screws on each side of the case. Keep these for later use.

3. Slide out the air conditioner from the case by pulling the base-pan handle while bracing the case.

4. Remove the white Styrofoam shipping block from the compressor. (Applicable for some models)

Attaching the Drain Pan (Optional)

The drain pan is used to collect condensed water.

The base-pan may overflow due to high humidity. The base-pan may also collect excess water when in

reverse mode (in Reverse Cycle models only). To drain the excess water, remove the drain cap from the back

of the unit and secure the drainpipe as follows:

1. Remove the drain pan located in the air discharge or on the barrier.

2. Remove the rubber cap from the hole on the base-pan. (Not applicable to all models)

3. Install the drain pan to the left corner of the cabinet with 2-4 screws.

4. Connect the drain hose to the hole located on the bottom of the drain pan.

You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs. (Drain hose not included)

Prepare the hole in the wall so that the bottom of

the housing is well supported, the top has minimum

clearace and the air inlet louveres have clearance

as shown. Holes from the outside through to the

cavity should be sealed. The housing should slope

down towards the rear by about 5mm to allow water

formed during operation to drain.

Step 3

Install the housing into the wall and secure. Ensure

the foam seals are not damaged. Flash, seal or fill

gaps around the inside and outside to provide

satisfactory appearance and protection against the

weather, insects and rodents.

How to Attach Drain Pan(Optional)

How to Connect a Drain Hose

The air conditioner employs a proper drain method whereby the condensed water (moisture removed from the

air) is drained to the outside.

In very humid weather, (and for reverse cycle models in the reverse mode) excessive condensate water

removed from the air may cause some water to collect. To remove this excess water you can install the drain

pan as detailed below.

1. Take the drain pan which is located in the air discharge.

2. Remove the hole rubber from the base-pan (for some models).

3. Install the drain pan to the right corner of the cabinet with 4 (or 2) screws.

4. Connect the drain hose of 3/5" inside diameter to the outlet located at the

bottom of the drain pan.You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally

to satisfy your particular needs. (Drain hose is not supplied).

A drain hole is provided at the rear of the air conditioner unit.

Select a drain method according to the following.

1. Remove the hole rubber from the base-pan. (for some models)

2. Connect a drain hose of
