• After reading, keep this manual in a convenient place so that you can refer to it whenever necessary. If the equipment is
transferred to a new user, be sure also to hand over the manual.
WARNING
• The appliance must be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources (for example: open
fl
ames,
an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
• In order to avoid
fi
re, explosion or injury, do not operate the unit when harmful gases (e.g.
fl
ammable or corrosive)
are detected near the unit.
• Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to cool or warm air from the unit, or to air that is too cool or too warm can
be harmful to your physical condition and health.
• Do not place objects, including rods, your
fi
ngers, etc., in the air inlet or outlet. Product malfunctioning, product or
injury damage may result due to contact with the unit’s high-speed fan blades.
• Do not attempt to repair, dismantle, reinstall or modify the unit yourself as this may result in water leakage, electric
shocks or
fi
re hazards.
• Do not use
fl
ammable spray near the unit, or otherwise
fi
re may result.
• Do not use refrigerant other than the one indicated on the outdoor unit (R32) when installing, moving or repairing.
Using other refrigerants may cause trouble or damage to the unit, and personal injury.
• To avoid electric shocks, do not operate with wet hands.
• Do not wash the unit with water, as this may result in electric shocks or
fi
re.
• Do not place water containers (vases etc.) above the unit, as this may result in electric shocks or
fi
re hazards.
• Beware of
fi
re in case of refrigerant leakage. If the unit 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 unit 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 unit until a quali
fi
ed service person con
fi
rms that the leakage has been repaired.
• Do not attempt to install or repair the unit yourself. Improper workmanship may result in water leakage, electric
shocks or
fi
re hazards. Please contact your local dealer or quali
fi
ed personnel for installation and maintenance work.
• When the unit 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
fi
re hazards.
• Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker. Failure to install the earth leakage breaker may result in electric shocks or
fi
re.
• 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.
