INSTALL / CONNECT THE OUTDOOR UNIT
Installing outdoor unit
The outdoor unit should preferably be installed in the open in a cool place (shade), where the unit can suck in
air. Leave enough space around the unit to ensure proper air ow. If the air passing through the outdoor unit is
warmer, the capacity decreases. If the ambient air exceeds 40°C, an error E:16 occurs. The unit will simply
continue to work.
If the outdoor unit is placed near a wall, make sure that the fan blows away from the wall. The fan sucks air
through the outdoor unit.
Refrigerant hose connections
2 refrigerant hoses are included. A hose has a large diameter and is connected to the connector “steam” (abo-
ve) of the indoor unit. The other hose has a slightly smaller diameter and is connected to the “liquid” connector
(below).
On the outdoor unit, the hoses should be connected as indicated on the stickers.
Connecting a ve-core cable to the outdoor unit
The outdoor unit has a white waterproof terminal box. The ve-core cable coming from the indoor unit should
be connected in this.

Note: Refrigerant hoses may not be kinked or installed at an acute angle. If they are kinked even briey, they
must be thrown away, a 100% leak will occur at this kink. The hoses must be placed at and must not be pu-
lled. The hoses may not be shortened or extended self. The connections on both the indoor and the outdoor unit
should rst be tightened by hand. After this, the connections are tightened with two spanners, do not tighten too
hard. The hoses should be supported, they may not hang on the indoor or outdoor unit, if they hang they will
buckle under their own weight.
