2.4. Suspension structure (Give site of suspension
(inch)
strong structure) (Fig. 2-4)
• The ceiling work diff ers according to the construction of the building. Building
constructors and interior decorators should be consulted for details.
(1) Extent of ceiling removal: The ceiling must be kept completely horizontal and the
ceiling foundation (framework: wooden slats and slat holders) must be reinforced
in order to protect the ceiling from vibration.
(2) Cut and remove the ceiling foundation.
(3) Reinforce the ends of the ceiling foundation where it has been cut and add ceiling
foundation for securing the ends of the ceiling board.
(4) When installing the indoor unit on a slanted ceiling, attach a pillar between the
ceiling and the grille and set so that the unit is installed horizontally.

Wooden structures
• Use tie beams (single storied houses) or second fl oor beams (2 story houses) as
reinforcing members.
• Wooden beams for suspending air conditioners must be sturdy and their sides must
be at least 60 mm, 2-3/8 inch long if the beams are separated by not more than
900 mm, 35-7/16 inch and their sides must be at least 90 mm, 3-9/16 inch long if
the beams are separated by as much as 1800 mm, 70-7/18 inch. The size of the
suspension bolts should be ø10 (3/8"). (The bolts do not come with the unit.)

Ferro-concrete structures
Secure the suspension bolts using the method shown, or use steel or wooden hangers,
etc. to install the suspension bolts.
2.5. Unit suspension procedures (Fig. 2-5)
(inch)
Suspend the main unit as shown in the diagram.
Figures given in parentheses represent the dimensions in case of installing optional
multi function casement.
1. In advance, set the parts onto the suspension bolts in the order of the washers
(with insulation), washers (without insulation) and nuts (double).
• Fit the washer with cushion so that the insulation faces downward.
• In case of using upper washers to suspend the main unit, the lower washers (with
insulation) and nuts (double) are to be set later.
2. Lift the unit to the proper height of the suspension bolts to insert the mounting
plate between washers and then fasten it securely.
3. When the main unit cannot be aligned against the mounting hole on the ceiling, it
is adjustable owing to a slot provided on the mounting plate.
• Make sure that A is performed within 17-22 mm, 11/16-7/8 inch. Damage could
result by failing to adhere to this range. (Fig. 2-6)
Caution:
Use the top half of the box as a protective cover to prevent dust or debris from
getting inside the unit prior to installation of the decorative cover or when
applying ceiling materials.
2.6. Confi rming the position of main unit and
tightening the suspension bolts (Fig. 2-7)
• Using the gauge attached to the grille, ensure that the bottom of the main unit is
properly aligned with the opening of the ceiling. Be sure to confi rm this, otherwise
condensation may form and drip due to air leakage, etc.
• Confi rm that the main unit is horizontally levelled, using a level or a vinyl tube fi lled
with water.
• After checking the position of the main unit, tighten the nuts of the suspension bolts
securely to fasten the main unit.
• The installation template (top of the package) can be used as a protective sheet
to prevent dust from entering the main unit when the grilles are left unattached for
a while or when the ceiling materials are to be lined after installation of the unit is
fi nished.
Note:
As for the details of fi tting, refer to the instructions given on the Installation template.
