Installation Manual
This unit contains refrigerant inside. The quantity of refrigerant is adequate for pipes up to 30m long. If longer pipes are
needed, add refrigerant onsite as necessary. As the quantity of refrigerant varies due to pipe length and model differences,
please refer to the piping instructions for details.
■ Make sure to hand over this manual to workers of the next stage and finally to the customer.
(Transportation and Handling)
Introduction
● This product is a general air-conditioner. Do not use for special purposes, such as food, animal and plant, precision
machinery, and artwork storage.
● Do not install at the following locations:
○ Locations where there is flammable gas and airborne grease. There is a risk of fire and machine deformation, cor rosion,
and damage.
○ Locations containing airborne grease (including grease from engine oil) and flammable gases.
○ Locations containing sulfur gas, such as hot springs.
● Do not install at the following locations to prevent corrosion:
○ Coastal areas and locations with higher salinity.
○ Locations with high acidity or alkalinity.
● When installing at locations where medical instruments may generate electromagnetic wave, avoid causing malfunction of
the air-conditioner.
○ To prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI), do not point the electromagnetic wave emitting surface of medical
instruments toward the electrical control panel, remote controller, and remote controller cable of the air-conditioner.
○ To avoid EMI in the air, keep machinery generating electromagnetic wave, such as radios, at least 3 meters away from
the air-conditioner.
● Do not place plants or animals directly under the airflow, as it is bad for them.
● As light will affect signal receiving of the remote control, keep the signal receiver at least one meter away from lights to
ensure signal receiving of the wireless remote control.

  • Page 2: Safety Precautions

    ● Do not climb on the air-conditioner or put objects on it to prevent collapse or overturning, which may cause injury. ● Make sure that no refrigerant leaks. Although Hitachi uses non-flammable, non-toxic, and odorless safety refrigerant (HFC), when HFC leaks and comes in contact with sparks, toxic gas produces. Also, as HFC has a higher mass than air, it will cause oxygen insufficiency near the floor.

Handling When handling an outdoor unit, carry it to the installation location in its original packing, if possible. (1) Before Installation This unit uses HFC refrigerant (R410A) that does not damage the ozone layer. 1) As the pressure of new refrigerant R410A is 1.4 times higher than ordinary refrigerants, it is more easily affected by water, oxides, grease, and other impurities.
