The piping can be run in the 3 directions indicated by numbers in the picture .

Select a most suitable one for installation convenience.

Run the piping in the direction of the wall hole and bind the copper pipes , the drain pipe and the power cables together with the tape with the drain pipe at the bottom, so that water can flow freely.

Do not remove the cap from the pipe until connecting

it, to avoid dampness or dirt from entering.

If the pipe is bent or pulled too often , it will become

stiff . Do not bend the pipe more than three times at

one point.

When extending the rolled pipe, straighten the pipe by

unwinding it gently as shown in the picture.

no debris inside).

2. Insert the fare nut and create a flange at the extreme

end of the connection pipe.

3. Tighten the connections by using two wrenches

working in opposite directions

Indoor unit condensed water drainage

The indoor unit condensed water drainage is fundamental for the success of the installation.

1. Place the drain hose below the piping, taking care not

to create siphons.

2. The drain hose must slant downwards to aid drainage.

3. Do not bend the drain hose or leave it protruding or

twisted and do not put the end of it in water . If an

extension is connected to the drain hose , ensure that

it is lagged when it passes into the indoor unit.

INSTALLATION MANUAL---Installation of the outdoor unit

The outdoor unit should be installed on a solid wall

and fastened securely.

The following procedure must be observed before co-

nnecting the pipes and connecting cables : decide

which is the best position on the wall and leave enough

space to be able to carry out maintenance easily.

Fasten the support to the wall using screw anchors

which are particularly suited to the type of wall;

Use a larger quantity of screw anchors than normally

required for the weight they have to bear to aviod

vibration during operation and remain fastened in the

same position for years without the screws becoming

loose.

The unit must be installed following the national

regulations.

Outdoor unit condensed water drainage

(only for heat pump models)

The condensed water and the ice formed in the outdoor unit during heating operation can be drained away through the drain pipe

1. Fasten the drain port in the 25mm hole placed in the

part of the unit as shown in the picture.

2. Connect the drain port and the drain pipe.

Pay attention that water is drained in a suitable place.

CONNECTING THE PIPES

Screw the flare nuts to the outdoor unit coupling with the same tightening procedures described for the indoor unit.

To avoid leakage, pay attention to the following points:

1. Tighten the flare nuts using two wrenches. Pay atten-

tion not to damage the pipes.

2. If the tightening torque is not sufficient , there will

probably be some leakage. With excessive tightening

torque there will also be some leakage, as the flange

could be damaged.

3. The surest system consists in tightening the connecti-

on by using a fix wrench and a torque wrench:in this

case use the table on page 22.
