Warning---------------
• Always ask the sales agency or specialized personnel to
carry out the installation work. Do not attempt to install the
unit by yourself.
Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric
shocks or fire hazards.
• Install the air conditioner following the instructions
contained in this manual.
Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric
shocks or fire hazards.
• When installing in a small room, it is necessary to take
proper measures to ensure the amount of any leaked
refrigerant under the concentration limit in the event of a
leakage. Contact your sales agency for appropriate
measures. Excessive refrigerant concentration in a closed
ambient space may result in oxygen deficiency.
• Be sure to use the specified accessories and parts for
installation.
Failure to use the specified accessories and parts may
result in the unit falling, water leakage, electric shocks, fire
hazards or the unit failing to operate normally.
• Install the unit on a solid foundation which can withstand
the weight of the unit.
A foundation of insufficient strength may result in the unit
falling and causing damage and injuries.
• Reinforcement may be necessary for installation by taking
into consideration strong winds, typhoons and earthquakes.
Improper installation may result in the unit falling and
causing accidents.
• Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is provided
for the unit and that all electrical work is carried out by
qualified electricians in accordance with your local laws
and regulations as well as this manual.

An insufficient power supply capacity or improper electrical
operation may lead to electric shocks or fire hazards.
• Use the specified wires and attach them securely, with no
external forces acting on the terminal connections or
wires.
Improper wiring or installation may cause fire hazards.
• When connecting the power supply wiring, remote
controller wiring and transmission wiring, lay the wires in a
smooth and regular way so that the electrical component
box cover can be securely fastened.
Improper fastening of the cover may result in electric
shocks, fire hazards or the electrical component box
abnormal heating.
• If refrigerant leakage occurs during installation,
immediately open the windows and doors for ventilation.
Gaseous refrigerant will produce toxic gas if it comes into
contact with fire.
• After completing all installation work, check for refrigerant
leakage.
Toxic gas may be produced if the refrigerant gas leaks into
the room and comes into contact with a source of fire, such
as an air heater, stove or furnace.
• Do not touch the electrical parts when the unit is powered
on.
• Do not touch the switches with the wet hands.
Failure to do so may result in electric shocks.
• Be sure to earth the unit.
Do not connect the earth wire to the gas pipes, water pipes,
lightning rods or telephone earth wires.
Improper earthing may result in electric shocks.
• Be sure to install the earth leakage circuit breaker.
Failure to do so may result in electric shocks or fire hazards.
• The indoor unit should be installed at the place out of the
reach of children. (At least 2.5m above the ground}
• Do not directly touch refrigerant that has leaked from
refrigerant pipes or other areas, as there is a danger of
frostbite.
-&
Caution----------------
• Do not allow children to climb on the outdoor unit and
avoid placing objects on the unit.
Injury may result if the unit becomes loose and falls.
• Make sure to provide for adequate measures in order to
prevent that the outdoor unit be used as a shelter by
small animals.
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can
cause malfunctions, smoke or fire. Please instruct the
customer to keep the area around the unit clean.
• Install in a machine room that is free of moisture. The unit
is designed for indoor use.
• Remote controller (wireless kit) transmitting distance can
be shorter than expected in rooms with electronic
fluorescent lamps (inverter or rapid start types). Install the
indoor unit as far away from fluorescent lamps as possible.
• Install the drain pipe according to the manual to ensure
proper drainage, and insulate the pipe to prevent
condensation.
Improper drain pipe installation may result in water
leakage and household items being wetted.
• Install the indoor unit, outdoor unit, power wiring and
connecting wire at least 1 m away from televisions or
radios to prevent electromagnetic Interference and noise.
(A distance of 1 m or more may not be sufficient to
eliminate the noise for certain waveband of the radios.)
