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, lightning
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 condi-
tioner.
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 sub-
merges 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.
Start or stop the air conditioner with the
remote controller. Never use the power cir-
cuit breaker for this purpose.
Otherwise, it may cause fire or water leakage.
Furthermore, if an automatic reset control is pro-
vided against power failure and the power is
recovered, the fan will rotate suddenly and may
cause injury.
Do not use the product in the atmosphere
contaminated with oil vapor, such as cooking
oil or machine oil vapor.
Oil vapor may cause crack damage, electric
shocks, or fire.
Do not use the product in places with exces-
sive oily smoke, such as cooking rooms, or
in places with flammable gas, corrosive gas,
or metal dust.
Using the product in such places may cause fire
or product failures.
Do not use flammable materials (e.g., hair-
spray or insecticide) near the product.
Do not clean the product with organic sol-
vents such as paint thinner.
The use of organic solvents may cause crack
damage to the product, electric shocks, or fire.
Be sure to use a dedicated power supply for
the air conditioner.
The use of any other power supply may cause
heat generation, fire, or product failures.
Consult your dealer regarding cleaning the
inside of the air conditioner.
Improper cleaning may cause breakage of plas-
tic parts, water leakage and other damage as
well as electric shocks.
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 preci-
sion instruments, food, plants, animals or works
of art as this may adversely affect the perfor-
mance, 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.
To avoid oxygen deficiency, ensure that the
room is adequately ventilated if equipment
such as a burner is used together with the air
conditioner.
Do not place flammable sprays or operate
spray containers near the unit as this may
result in fire.
Do not put flammable containers, such as
spray cans, within 1 m from the air outlet.
The containers may explode because the warm
air output of the indoor or outdoor unit will affect
them.
Before cleaning, be sure to stop unit opera-
tion, turn the power circuit 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 objects that are susceptible to
moisture directly beneath the indoor or out-
door units.
Under certain conditions, condensation on the
main unit or refrigerant pipes, air filter dirt or
drain blockage may cause dripping, resulting in
fouling or failure of the object concerned.
Do not place appliances that produce naked
flames in places exposed to the airflow 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.
Be sure that children, plants or animals are
not exposed directly to airflow from the unit,
as adverse effects may ensue.
Do not wash the air conditioner with water,
as this may result in electric shocks or fire.
Do not place water containers (flower vases,
etc.) on the unit, as this may result in electric
shocks or fire.
