CAUTION
Do not use the air conditioner for purposes other than those for which it is intended.
•
Do not use the air conditioner for cooling precision instruments, food, plants, animals or works of art as this
may adversely affect the performance, quality and/or longevity of the object concerned.
Do not remove the outdoor unit’s fan guard.
•
The guard protects against the unit’s high speed fan, which may cause injury.
Do not place objects that are susceptible to moisture directly beneath the indoor or outdoor units.
•
Under certain conditions, condensation on the main unit or refrigerant pipes, air fi lter dirt or drain blockage
may cause dripping, resulting in fouling or failure of the object concerned.
To avoid oxygen depletion, ensure that the room is adequately ventilated if equipment such as a burner is
•
used together with the air conditioner.
After prolonged use, check the unit stand and its mounting situation.
•
If left in a damaged condition, the unit may fall and cause injury.
Do not place fl ammable sprays or operate spray containers near the unit as this may result in fi re.
•
Before cleaning, be sure to stop unit operation, turn the breaker off or remove the power cord.
•
Otherwise, an electric shock and injury may result.
To avoid electric shocks, do not operate with wet hands.
•
Do not place appliances that produce naked fl ames in places exposed to the air fl ow from the unit as this
•
may impair combustion of the burner.
Do not place heaters directly below the unit, as resulting heat can cause deformation.
•
Do not allow a child to mount on the outdoor unit or avoid placing any object on it.
•
Falling or tumbling may result in injury.
Do not block air inlets or outlets.
•
Impaired air fl ow may result in insuffi cient performance or trouble.
Be sure that children, plants or animals are not exposed directly to airfl ow from the unit, as adverse effects
•
may ensue.
Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may result in electric shocks or fi re.
•
Do not install the air conditioner at any place where there is a danger of fl ammable gas leakage.
•
In the event of a gas leakage, build-up of gas near the air conditioner may result in fi re hazards.
Do not put fl ammable containers, such as spray cans, within 1m from the air outlet.
•
The containers may explode because the warm air output of the indoor or outdoor unit will affect them.
Arrange the drain to ensure complete drainage.
•
If proper drainage from the outdoor drain pipe does not occur during air conditioner operation, there could
be a blockage due to dirt and debris build-up in the pipe.
This may result in a water leakage from the indoor unit.
Under these circumstances, stop air conditioner operation and consult our dealer for assistance.
The appliance is not intended for use by unattended young children or infi rm persons.
•
Impairment of bodily functions and harm to health may result.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the unit or its remote controller.
•
Accidental operation by a child may result in impairment of bodily functions and harm health.
Do not let children play on or around the outdoor unit.
•
If they touch the unit carelessly, injury may be caused.
Consult our dealer regarding cleaning the inside of the air conditioner.
•
Improper cleaning may cause breakage of plastic parts, water leakage and other damage as well as
electric shocks.
To avoid injury, do not touch the air inlet or aluminium fi ns of the unit.
•
Do not place objects in direct proximity of the outdoor unit and do not let leaves and other debris accumulate
•
around the unit.
Leaves are a hotbed for small animals which can enter the unit. Once get in the unit, such animals can
cause malfunctions, smoke or fi re when making contact with electrical parts.
Never touch the internal parts of the controller.
•
Do not remove the front panel. Touching certain internal parts will cause electric shocks and damage to the
unit. Please consult our dealer about checking and adjustment of internal parts.
Do not leave the remote controller wherever there is a risk of wetting.
•
If water gets into the remote controller there is a risk of electrical leakage and damage to electronic components.
