Installation of the Housing
Step 1
Remove the air conditioner from it's packaging, remove fixing
screws and slide the air conditioner out of it's housing (Refer to
Installation Steps).
Step 2
Prepare the hole in the wall so that the bottom of the housing
is well supported, the top has minimum clearance and the
air inlet louvers have clearance as shown below in options A
and B. 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.
Installation of the unit into the Housing
1. Slide the unit into the housing until it is firmly against
the rear of the housing. Care is required to ensure the
foam sealing strips on the housing remain in position.
2. Connect the air conditioner to the power and position
excess cord length beneath the air conditioner base.
3. Engage the chassis fixing brackets into the bottom
housing rail and secure to the base with the screw
provided.
4. Remove the front panel from it's carton and plastic bag
and fit as per the Installation lnstruction.
5. Switch unit on. Check for operation of the unit and
check for vibration in the installation.
6. Fit the drain pan to the housing and run a drain line to a suitable location if required.
