• Do not place appliances that produce naked flames in places exposed to the air flow from the unit as this may impair combustion of the burner.
• Do not block air inlets nor outlets. Impaired air flow may result in insufficient performance or trouble.
• Do not sit on the outdoor unit, put things on the unit, or pull the unit. Doing so may cause accidents,
such as falling or toppling down, thus resulting in injury, product malfunctioning, or product damage.
• 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 filter dirt or drain
blockage may cause dripping, resulting in fouling or failure of the object concerned.
• After prolonged use, check the unit stand and its mounts for damage. If they are left in a damaged condition, the unit may fall and cause injury.
• To avoid injury, do not touch the air inlet or aluminum fins of the unit.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• 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 give impact to the indoor and outdoor units, or otherwise product damage may result.
• Do not place flammable items, such as spray cans, within 1 meter of the air outlet.
The spray cans may explode as a result of hot air from the indoor or outdoor units.
• Be careful not to let pets urinate on the air conditioner. Urination on the air conditioner may result in electric shocks or fire.
• To avoid oxygen depletion, ensure that the room is adequately ventilated if equipment such
as a burner is used together with the air conditioner.
• 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.
• Only connect the air conditioner to the specified power supply circuit. Power supplies other than the one specified may result in electric shocks, overheating and fires.
• Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage. Imperfect drainage may cause wetting of the building, furniture etc.
• 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 in the unit, such animals can cause malfunctions, smoke or fire when making contact with electrical parts.
• Do not place objects around the indoor unit. Doing so may have an adverse influence on the performance, product quality, and life of the air conditioner.
• To avoid electric shocks, do not operate with wet hands.
• Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may result in electric shocks or fire.
• Do not place water containers (vases, etc.) above the unit, as this may result in electric
shocks or fire hazards.
■
To install the air conditioner in the following types of environments, consult the dealer.
• Places with an oily ambient or where steam or soot occurs.
• Salty environment such as coastal areas.
• Places where sulfide gas occurs such as hot springs.
• Places where snow may block the outdoor unit.
• The indoor unit is at least 1 meter away from any television or radio set (unit may cause interference with the picture or sound).
• The drain from the outdoor unit must be discharged to a place of good drainage.
■
For installation, choose a place as described below.
• A place solid enough to bear the weight of the unit which does not amplify the operation noise or vibration.
• A place from where the air discharged from the outdoor unit or the operation noise will not annoy your neighbours.
• For power supply, be sure to use a separate power circuit dedicated to the air conditioner.
• Relocating the air conditioner requires specialized knowledge and skills. Please consult the dealer if relocation is necessary for moving or remodeling.
