IT IS FORBIDDEN to disperse the packaging material in the environment or leave it within reach of children, as it may be potentially dangerous. The appliance must be lifted exclusively using suitable lifting equipment, such as, for example, hoists or forklift trucks with adequate load-bearing capacity in relation to the weight to be lifted. 3.3 Installing the outdoor unit 3.3.1 Place of installation 1 Packaging label 2 Indoor unit 1 1 Fig. 19 – Install the outdoor unit outdoors only. – Avoid positioning the outdoor unit in places which are difficult to access for subsequent installation and maintenance operations. – Avoid positioning the units close to heat sources. – Do not position the outdoor unit in places subject to continuous vibrations. – Do not position the outdoor unit on load-bearing structures that are not designed to withstand its weight. – Avoid positioning the appliance close to combustible gas tanks or pipes. – Avoid positions exposed to oil vapours. – Choose a position where the noise and air emitted by the outdoor unit will not disturb the neighbours. – Choose a position sheltered from wind. – Choose a position that guarantees the necessary installation distances. – Avoid positioning the appliance in a spot preventing access to doors and/or corridors. – The floor supporting the appliance must be able to sustain the outdoor unit’s weight and minimise all possible vibrations. – If the outdoor unit is installed in a location normally subject to heavy snowfall, it must be positioned at least 200 mm above the usual level of snowfall, or else an adequate supporting structure must be mounted. 1 Packaging label Fig. 20 18 / EN

Ensure an adequate distance between the front part of the appliance and any nearby walls The height of any barriers or walls must be lower than the height of the outdoor unit. We recommend paying careful attention to where the product is installed, so as to avoid causing inconveniences to the user and to the neighbours. It is necessary to take into account the distance from the property’s boundaries, the presence of any windows and the proximity to the bedroom area. 3.3.2 Noise level To limit noise pollution and the transmission of vibrations: – Install the outdoor unit on a metal frame or on a vibration-damping base. Vibration dampers must be mounted to reduce the transmission of vibrations. – Install a wall-mounted vibration absorber on the wall behind the unit; – Install a sound shield. The shield must have a surface area larger than the outdoor unit, it must be positioned as close as possible to the unit itself, while ensuring that air can nonetheless circulate freely, and must be made of suitable material (acoustic bricks or cement blocks lined with sound-absorbing material). 3.3.3 Handling Once the packaging has been removed, the outdoor unit can be handled with suitable equipment in relation to the unit’s weight. a a Observe the maximum weight that can be lifted per person. Handling operations may potentially cause personal injuries or damages to the appliance or to the surrounding area. Identify the risky area and check that it is free of people or objects during lifting operations. 19 / EN
