PIPING AND CONNECTIONS

WARNING:
- Do not drink the condensation water (personal injury from
poisoning).
- Position the condensation drain pipe in such a way as to al-
low for the correct downfl ow of water in dedicated areas, and
to prevent any inconvenience or damage to people, things,
animals, plants and structures.
- Use manual tools and equipment that are suitable for the in-
tended use.

2.1 Connecting the refrigeration piping

The piping can be positioned in 3 different directions as indicated
with numbers 1, 2 and 3 in the adjacent fi gure. When the pipes are
positioned in directions 1 or 3, the special groove designed on the
side of the internal unit should be cut using a suitable tool. Turn the
pipes in the direction of the hole in the wall (2), taking care not to
constrict them in any way, and tape the cooling piping, condensa-
tion drain pipe and electrical wiring together with electric (insulat-
ing) tape, keeping the condensation drain pipe at the bottom so that
the water can fl ow freely.
2.2 Draining the condensation from the internal
unit
The proper draining of condensation from the internal unit is fun-
damental for a good installation.
1. Keep the condensation drain pipe (Ø 18,2 mm) at the bottom of
the hole in the wall.
2. Make sure the condensation drain pipe has a continuous gradi-
ent of approximately 3 cm per metre.
3. Do not include any traps in the condensation discharge piping.
4. Do not immerse the free end of the condensation drain pipe in
water and do not leave it in the vicinity of places emanating un-
pleasant odours.
5. When the installation is complete, before turning on the appli-
ance, make sure the condensation drain pipe works properly by
pouring some water into the condensation drip water tray situ-
ated inside the internal unit.
2.3 Draining the condensation from the external
unit
The condensation or water that forms in the external unit during
operation in heating mode can be removed via the drain pipe fi tting.
Installation: fasten the drain pipe (Ø 15 mm) fi tting to the hole on
the bottom of the unit, as illustrated in the diagram on the right.
Connect the condensation drain pipe to the drain pipe fi tting and
ensure the other end of the pipe is ducted into a suitable drain.
WARNING:
- Only use specially designed piping for ACR type air conditioning units
- Protect all connection cables and pipes in order to prevent them being damaged.
- Never use pipes that have a thickness which is less than 0,8 mm.
- The appliance must be installed in full compliance with national system regulations.
- During the installation process, the refrigerator should be connected fi rst, followed by the electricity supply. In
the event of replacement, proceed in the reverse order.
