Rooftop installation
If the outdoor unit is installed on a roof structure, be sure to level 
the unit.
Ensure the roof structure and anchoring method are adequate for 
the unit location.
If the outdoor unit is installed on roof structures or external walls, 
this may result in excessive noise and vibration, and may also be 
classed as non-serviceable installation.
caution
•   The outdoor unit is charged with the refrigerant for standard 
pipe length of 7.5m. 
•   When the connecting pipe length is longer than the standard 
length, additional refrigerant should be added into the unit 
according to the above table through the service port on 
3-way service valve on the outdoor unit.
•   Please maintain the shortest distance (3 to 5 metres) and 
shortest misalignment possible between the indoor and 
outdoor units.
•   The maximum allowance length and height is based  
on reliability. Exceeding the maximum may cause poor 
performance or malfunction. 
•   When the level difference between indoor and outdoor units 
is greater than the maximum height of 10 metres, or when 
the outdoor unit is installed above the indoor unit, an oil trap 
should be installed every 5-7 metres.
