Safety precautions
CAUTION
instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for
the recovery of flammable refrigerants.
In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good
working order.
Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good
condition.
Before using the recovery machine, check that it is in satisfactory working
order, has been properly maintained and that any associated electrical
components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant release.
Consult manufacturer if in doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the
correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant Waste Transfer Note arranged.
Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have
been evacuated to an acceptable level to make certain that flammable
refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant.
The evacuation process shall be carried out prior to returning the compressor
to the suppliers.
Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed to accelerate
this process.
When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely.
CAUTION
When moving or relocating the air conditioner, consult experienced service
technicians for disconnection and reinstallation of the unit.
Do not place any other electrical products or household belongings under
indoor unit or outdoor unit. Condensation dripping from the unit might get them
wet, and may cause damage or malfunction of your property.
Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition
sources(for example, open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating
electric heater).
Do not pierce or burn.
Be aware that refrigerants may not contain an odor.
To keep ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
The appliance shall be stored in a well-ventilated area where the room size
corresponds to the room area as specified for operation.
