Abstract

When a front panel moves away from a front surface of a casing, a central part of the front panel is warped. An indoor unit of the present invention includes a casing, a front panel provided forward of the casing, and a drive mechanism moving the front panel away from the front surface of the casing. The front panel is curved so that its central part protrudes forward. The drive mechanism moves the front panel in a substantially horizontal direction.
