WARNING------------
• Consult your local dealer about installation work.
Doing the work yourself may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or fire hazards.
• Consult your local dealer regarding modification,
repair and maintenance of the air conditioner.
Improper workmanship may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or fire hazards.
• Beware of fire in case of refrigerant leakage.
If the air conditioner is not operating correctly, i.e. not
generating cool or warm air, refrigerant leakage could be
the cause. Consult your dealer for assistance.
The refrigerant within the air conditioner is safe and
normally does not leak. However, in the event of a leakage,
contact with a naked burner, heater or cooker may result in
generation of noxious gas.
Do not use the air conditioner until a qualified service
person confirms that the leakage has been repaired.
• Consult your local dealer regarding relocation and
reinstallation of the air conditioner.
Improper installation work may result in leakage, electric
shocks or fire hazards.
• Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to
cool air from the air conditioner, or to air that is too
cool can be harmful to your physical condition
and health.
• When the air conditioner is malfunctioning
(giving off a burning odour, etc.) turn off power to the
unit and contact your local dealer.
Continued operation under such circumstances may result
in a failure, electric shocks or fire hazards.
• Do not place objects, including rods, your fingers, etc.,
in the air inlet or outlet.
Injury may result due to contact with the air conditioner's
high speed fan blades.
• Consult your local dealer regarding what to
do in case of refrigerant leakage.
When the air conditioner is to be installed in a small room,
it is necessary to take proper measures so that the
amount of any leaked refrigerant does not exceed
the concentration limit in the event of a leakage.
Otherwise, this may lead to an accident due to
oxygen depletion.
• Contact professional personnel about attachment
of accessories and be sure to use only accessories
specified by the manufacturer.
If a defect results from your own workmanship, it
may result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
• Be sure to use fuses with the correct ampere reading.
Do not use improper fuses, copper or other wires
as a substitute, as this may result in electric shock,fire,injury
or damage to the unit.
• Be sure to earth the unit.
Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lighting conductor
or telephone earth lead. Imperfect earthing may result in
electric shocks or fire.
A high surge current from lightning or other sources may
cause damage to the air conditioner.
• Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker.
Failure to install an earth leakage breaker may
result in electric shocks or fire.
• Consult the dealer if the air conditioner submerges
owing to a natural disaster, such as a flood or typhoon.
Do not operate the air conditioner in that case,or otherwise
a malfunction, electric shock, or fire may result.
• Do not start or stop operating the air conditioner with
the power supply breaker turned ON or OFF.
Otherwise, fire or water leakage may result.
Furthermore, the fan will rotate abruptly if power failure
compensation is enabled, which may result in injury.
• Do not operate with the control panel lid open.
If water gets inside the panel, it may result in equipment
failure or electric shock.
• Do not place flammable sprays near the unit
as this can cause explosions.
