• Securely install the cover of control box and the panel.
- If the cover and panel are not installed securely, dust or water may enter the outdoor unit and
fire or electric shock may result.
• If the air conditioner is installed in a small room, measures must be taken to prevent the
refrigerant concentration from exceeding the safety limit when the refrigerant leaks.
- Consult the dealer regarding the appropriate measures to prevent the safety limit from being
exceeded. Should the refrigerant leak and cause the safety limit to be exceeded, harzards due
to lack of oxygen in the room could result.
• Means for disconnection must be incorporated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the
wiring rules
• This equipment shall be provided with a supply conductor complying with the national
regulation
Operation
• Do not damage or use an unspecified power cord.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
• Use a dedicated outlet for this appliance.
- There is risk of fire or electrical shock.
• Be cautious that water could not enter the product.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, or product damage.
• Do not touch the power switch with wet hands.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
• When the product is soaked (flooded or submerged), contact an Authorized Service Center.
- There is risk of fire or electric shock.
• Be cautious not to touch the sharp edges when installing.
- It may cause injury.
• Take care to ensure that nobody could step on or fall onto the outdoor unit.
- This could result in personal injury and product damage.
• Do not open the inlet grille of the product during operation. (Do not touch the electrostatic filter, if the unit
is so equipped.)
- There is risk of physical injury, electric shock, or product failure.
CAUTION
!
Installation
• Always check for gas (refrigerant) leakage after installation or repair of product.
- Low refrigerant levels may cause failure of product.
• Do not install the product where the noise or hot air from the outdoor unit could damage the
neighborhoods.
- It may cause a problem for your neighbors.
• Keep level even when installing the product.
- To avoid vibration or water leakage.
• Do not install the unit where combustible gas may leak.
- If the gas leaks and accumulates around the unit, an explosion may result.
• Use power cables of sufficient current carrying capacity and rating.
- Cables that are too small may leak, generate heat, and cause a fire.
• Do not use the product for special purposes, such as preserving foods, works of art, etc. It is a consumer
air conditioner, not a precision refrigeration system.
- There is risk of damage or loss of property.
• Keep the unit away from children. The heat exchanger is very sharp.
- It can cause the injury, such as cutting the finger. Also the damaged fin may result in degradation of
capacity.
• When installting the unit in a hospital, communication station, or similar place, provide sufficient
protection against noise.
- The inverter equipment, private power generator, high-frequency medical equipment, or radio
communication equipment may cause the air conditioner to operate erroneously, or fail to operate.
On the other hand, the air conditioner may affect such equipment by creating noise that disturbs
medical treatment or image broadcasting.
• Do not install the product where it is exposed to sea wind (salt spray) directly.
- It may cause corrosion on the product. Corrosion, particularly on the condenser and evaporator fins,
could cause product malfunction or inefficient operation.
