Installation Guide
Tools Needed:
- Drill with hole saw attachment
- Level
- Screwdrivers (flat and Phillips)
- Adjustable wrench
- Tape measure
- Vacuum pump and gauge manifold
Step-by-Step Installation
- Choose Installation Location: Select a location with proper wall support, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, with adequate clearance for airflow.
- Mount Indoor Unit Bracket: Securely mount the indoor unit bracket to the wall using appropriate anchors and ensure it is perfectly level.
- Install Outdoor Unit: Place outdoor unit on a stable, level surface with proper vibration pads and adequate clearance for airflow and service access.
- Connect Refrigerant Lines: Connect copper refrigerant lines between indoor and outdoor units, ensuring proper insulation and leak-free connections.
- Electrical Connection: Connect to a dedicated 220V, 50Hz circuit with proper grounding. Follow local electrical codes and regulations.
- Drainage Connection: Install drain pipe with proper slope away from the unit to ensure condensate water drains effectively.
- Vacuum and Charge System: Evacuate air and moisture from refrigerant lines using a vacuum pump, then charge with specified refrigerant amount.
- Test Run: Run the air conditioner through complete cooling and heating cycles to check for proper operation and temperature performance.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Unit won't start | Power issue, remote control batteries dead, circuit breaker tripped | Check power supply, replace remote batteries, reset circuit breaker |
| Poor cooling/heating | Dirty filters, blocked airflow, refrigerant leak, outdoor unit obstructed | Clean filters, clear obstructions, check for leaks, ensure outdoor unit clearance |
| Water leakage | Clogged drain pipe, improper installation slope, frozen evaporator | Clear drain pipe, ensure proper slope, check for ice buildup |
| Unusual noises | Loose parts, debris in fan, vibrating pipes, compressor issues | Tighten mounting hardware, clear debris, secure refrigerant lines |
| Foul odors | Dirty filters, mold growth in drain pan, stagnant water | Clean/replace filters, use self-cleaning function, ensure proper drainage |
| Remote not working | Dead batteries, signal obstruction, remote sensor issue | Replace batteries, ensure line of sight, check indoor unit sensor |
Error Codes
- E1: Room temperature sensor failure - Check sensor connection
