Installation

Prior to installation

It is advisable to place the unit as close as possible to the installation site
before removing it from the packaging. The grille panel and the control
are separately packed for maximum protection.

IMPORTANT:
Do not lift the unit by the condensate drain discharge pipe;
hold it by its four corners only.

Unit installation will be facilitated using a stacker.






Mark the position of the hangers, connection lines and condensate
drain pipe, power supply cables and remote control cable (see
dimensions); the cardboard template (supplied with the kit) may
be of assistance for this operation. Depending on the type of
ceiling the hangers can be fixed as shown in the drawing.

Installation

If plaster board ceiling panels are installed the maximum
dimensions of the unit housing must not exceed 660 x 660 mm
(mod. 004 - 008 - 010) and 900 x 900 mm (mod. 012 - 016 - 020).

In rooms with high humidity, brackets should be insulated by self
adhesive insulation supplied.

Max. 2 louvres closed

Warning: To close one or two air outlets use the special kit

• Install the unit as centrally as possible in the room, the air flow

direction can be controlled by manually regulating the louvres
position, according to the operating mode (cooling or heating): this
will ensure optimum distribution of the air in the room.

• During cooling mode operation the best position for the deflecting

louvres is one which allows air diffusion close to the ceiling
(Coanda effect). In heating mode, the louvres should be
positioned so that the air is directed towards the floor, in order to
prevent layers of hot air forming in the upper part of the room.

• In order to allow easy and rapid installation and maintenance,

make sure that in the selected position it is possible to remove
the ceiling panels or, if the ceiling is constructed of masonry,
that access to the unit is guaranteed.

ATTENTION:
Only restrict the air outlets as indicated in the drawing.
