contain important information regarding
safety. Be sure to observe all precautions
without fail.
WARNING .. Failure to follow these instructions

new user, be sure also to hand over the man-
ual.
WARNING
Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to
cool or warm air from the air conditioner, or
to air that is too cool or too warm 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 haz-
ards.
Consult your local dealer about installation
work.
Doing the work yourself may result in water leak-
age, electric shocks or fire hazards.
Consult your local dealer regarding modifi-
cation, repair and maintenance of the air con-
ditioner.
Improper workmanship may result in water leak-
age, 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 con-
ditioner’s highspeed fan blades.
2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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 longer use the air conditioner until a qual-
ified service person confirms that the leakage
has been repaired.
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 mea-
sures so that the amount of any leaked refriger-
ant 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 manu-
facturer.
If a defect results from your own workmanship, it
may result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
Consult your local dealer regarding reloca-
tion and reinstallation of the air conditioner.
Improper installation work may result in leakage,
electric shocks or fire hazards.
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.
Do not start or stop operating the air condi-
tioner 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 inlury.
