NOTICE FOR INSTALLATION Important Notices • • • Before installing, please contact a local HVAC professional. If the unit is not installed by a registered HVAC contractor, the warranty will be voided. Please request a copy of the HVAC contractor’s invoice at the end of installation and keep for your records. The air conditioner must be installed by professionals according to the national wiring rules and this manual.
NOTICE FOR INSTALLATION Electrical Safety Requirements • • • • • • Be sure to use the rated voltage and air conditioners dedicated circuit for the power supply, and the power cord diameter must meet the national requirements. When the maximum current of air conditioner is ≥ 16A, it must use the air switch or leakage protection switch equipped with protection devices. The normal operating range is 90%-110% of the local rated voltage.
NOTICE FOR INSTALLATION Requirements for Operations at Raised Height • When carrying out installation at 6.6 ft. or higher above the base level, safety belts must be worn and ropes of sufficient strength be securely fastened to the outdoor unit, to prevent falling that could cause personal injury or death as well as property loss. Grounding Requirements • • • The air conditioner is the type I electrical appliance and must ensure a reliable grounding.
INSTALLATION: INDOOR UNIT Clearance Requirements for Indoor Installation 5.9 in 7.9 in 7.9 in 78.7 in NOTE: All measurements should be no less than posted from obstructions. Mounting Plate 1. 2. 3. The wall for installation of the indoor unit shall be hard and firm to prevent vibration. Use the “+” type screw to fasten the mounting plate. Horizontally mount the mounting plate on the wall and ensure it is level with the wall. Pull the mounting plate by hand after installing to confirm if it is solid.
INSTALLATION: INDOOR UNIT Route of Pipeline 1. Depending on the position of the unit, the piping may be routed sideways from the left or the right (Fig 1), or vertically from the back (Fig 2) (depending on the pipe length of the indoor unit). In the case of sideway routing, cut off the outlet cutting stock of the opposite side. Fig 1. Fig 2. Drainpipe Connection 1. 2. Remove the mountings and pull the indoor unit pipe out of the housing.
INSTALLATION: INDOOR UNIT Wrap the Piping 1. 2. 3. Use the insulation sleeve to wrap the joint part of the indoor unit and the connection pipe. Then use the insulating material to pack and seal insulation pipe, to prevent generation of condensate water on the joint part. Connect the water outlet with drainpipes, and make the connection pipe, cables, and the drain hose straight. Use plastic cable ties to wrap the connecting pipes, cables and drain hose. Run the pipe sloping downward.
INSTALLATION: INDOOR UNIT Wiring Diagram • • If the air conditioner is provided with an interconnection cord, the wiring of the indoor unit is connected in the factory, there is no need of connection. If the interconnection cord is not provided, connection is needed in accordance with the wiring diagram.
