OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION  
1. Outdoor Installation Precaution  
• Install the outdoor unit on a rigid base to prevent noise and vibration.  
• Locate the air outlet direction where the discharged air is not blocked.  
Ensure there are no obstacles blocking the unit’s air flow.  
• If the installation location is exposed to strong winds, place the unit length  
wise along a wall or use shield plates to protect against high winds.  
• If suspending the unit, the installation wall should be solid brick, concrete or of similar construction. If  
not, reinforce the supporting wall. The connections between the bracket and wall and the bracket and  
the air conditioner must be firm, stable and reliable. Consult all local and national building codes.  
• If suspending the unit, follow the instructions provided by the bracket manufacturer.  
2. Drain Elbow Installation  
Fit the seal into the drain elbow,  
then insert the drain elbow into the  
outdoor unit’s base pan hole, rotate  
90° to securely assemble them. To  
discharge excessive condensate  
from the outdoor unit when in heating  
mode, connect the drain elbow to a  
drain hose (locally purchased).

E.  
F.  
Use a dedicated circuit. Use HACR break sized per  
unit’s rating plate. Size wires according to minimum  
circuit ampacity shown on the unit’s rating plate.  
• Be sure to comply with local and national electri-  
cal codes while running the wire from the indoor  
unit to the outdoor unit.  
• Install disconnects fro the outdoor and indoor  
units as required by national and local electrical  
codes.  
• Every wire must be connected firmly. Loose wir-  
ing may cause the terminal to overheat or result  
in unit malfunction. A fire hazard may also exsist.  
NOTE: To prevent wire from loosening, secure  
wires and/or cords under cord clamp.
