Hitachi airHome RAC-DJ18WHAE Installationsanleitung

WARNING
Please request your sales agent or qualified technician to install your unit. Water leakage,
short circuit or fire may occur if you do the installation work yourself.
Please observe the installation stated in the installation manual during the process of
installation. Improper installation may cause water leakage, electric shock and fire.
Make sure that the units are mounted at locations which are able to provide full support to the
weight of the units. If not, the units may collapse and impose danger.
Observe the rules and regulations of the electrical installation and the methods described in the
installation manual when dealing with the electrical work. Use cables which are approved official
in your country. Be sure to use the specified circuit. A short circuit and fire may occur due to the
use of low quality wire or improper work.
Be sure to use the specified cables for connecting the indoor and outdoor units. Please ensure
that the connections are tight after the conductors of the wire are inserted into the terminals to
prevent the external force is being applied to the connection section of the terminal base.
Improper insertion and loose contact may cause over-heating and fire.
Please use the specified components for installation work. Otherwise, the unit may collapse or
water leakage, electric shock, fire or stronger vibration may occur.
Be sure to use the specified piping set for R32. Otherwise, this may result in broken copper
pipes or faults.
RAC-DJ18WHAE When installing or transferring an air conditioner to another location, make sure that air other
RAC-DJ25WHAE than the specified refrigerant (R32) does not enter the refrigeration cycle. If other air should
enter, the pressure level of the refrigeration cycle may increase abnormally which could

result in a rupture and injury.
RAC-DJ50WHAE
Never install a drier to this R32 unit in order to guarantee its lifetime.

Be sure to ventilate fully if a refrigerant gas leak while at work. If the refrigerant gas comes into
contact with fire, a poisonous gas may occur.
After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas
Carefully read through the leakage. If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, coming into contact with fire in the
fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.

WARNING
Be sure to connect the earth line from the power supply wire to the outdoor unit and between the outdoor and indoor unit.
Do not connect the earth line to the gas tube, water pipe, lighting rod or the earth line of the telephone unit. Improper
earthing may cause electric shocks.
When installing the unit, be sure to install the refrigerant pipe before starting the compressor.
If the refrigerant pipe is not installed and the compressor is operated with the service valve released, air is sucked and the pressure level
of the refrigeration cycle may increase abnormally which could result in a rupture and injury.
The electric cables should neither be reworked nor added. Make sure to use an exclusive circuit breaker.
Otherwise fire or electric shock might occur by connection failure, isolation failure or over current.
Make sure to connect cables to terminal properly and terminal cover should close firmly.
Otherwise, over heating at terminal contact, fire or electric shock might occur.
Make sure that there is no dust on any connected points of electric cables and fix firmly.
Otherwise, fire or electric shock might occur.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
Read the safety precautions carefully before operating the unit. This appliance is filled with R32.
The contents of this section are vital to ensure safety. Please pay special attention to the following sign.
WARNING .......... Incorrect methods of installation may cause death or serious injury.
CAUTION .......... Improper installation may result in serious consequence.
Make sure to connect earth line.
This sign in the figures indicates prohibition.
Be sure that the unit operates in proper condition after installation. Explain to customer the proper operation and maintenance of the unit
as described in the user' s guide. Ask a customer to keep this installation manual together with the instruction manual.
Please mount the Outdoor unit of stable ground to prevent vibration and increase of noise level.
Decide the location for piping after sorting out the different types of pipe available.

CONDENSED WATER DISPOSAL OF OUTDOOR UNIT
There is holes on the base of Outdoor unit for condensed water to exhaust.
In order to flow condensed water to the drain, the unit is installed on a stand or a block so that the unit is 100mm above the
ground as shown figure. Join the dr ain pipe to one hole.

the ground is 250 mm or more.
CAUTION
A circuit breaker must be installed in the house distribution box for the direct
connected power supply cables to the outdoor unit. In case of other
installations a main switch with a contact gap or more than 3mm has to be
installed. Without a circuit breaker, the danger of electric shock exists.
Do not install the unit near a location where there is flammable gas.
The outdoor unit may catch fire if flammable gas leaks around it.
Please ensure smooth flow of water when installing the drain hose. Improper
installing may wet your furniture.
An IEC approved power cord should be used. Power cord type: NYM.
THE CHOICE OF MOUNTING SITE
(Please note the following matters and obtain permission from customer before installation.)
WARNING
The Outdoor unit must be mounted at a location which can support heavy weight.
Otherwise, noise and vibration will increase.
When finishing the refrigerant collection (pumping down), stop the compressor
and then remove the coolant pipe. If you remove the refrigerant pipe while the
compressor is operating and the service valve is released, air is sucked and
a pressure in the freezing cycle system will build up steeply, causing an
explosion or injury.
CAUTION
Selecting the installation location: Suitable location that will reduce the impact
from rain and direct sun that may affect the unit performance.
Besides,ventilation must be good and clear of obstruction .
The air blown out of the unit should not point directly to animals or
The clearances of the unit from top, left, right and front are specified in figure
below . At least three of the above sides must be open air .
Be sure that the hot air blown out of the unit and noise do not disturb the
neighbourhood.
Do not install at a location where there is flammable gas,steam, oil and smoke.
The location must be convenient for water drainage.
Place the Outdoor unit and its connecting cord at least 1 m away from the antenna
or signal line of television, radio or telephone. This is to avoid noise interference.

WARNING
RAC-DJ18/25/35WHAE
Investigate the power supply capacity and other electrical conditions at the installing location.
Depending on the model of room air conditioner to be installed, request the customer to make
arrangements for the necessary electrical work etc. The electrical work includes the wiring work
up the outdoor unit. In localities where electrical conditions are poor, use of a voltage regulation
is recommended.
Install outdoor for the room air conditioner within the reaching range of the line cord.
