Safety Precautions
WARNING
•
Be sure to earth the air conditioner.
Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or telephone earth lead. Imperfect earthing may result in electric
shocks.
•
Be sure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker.
Failure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker may result in electric shocks or fi re.
•
Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those recommended by the
manufacturer.
• 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).

.
•
Comply with national gas regulations.
CAUTION
• Do not install the air conditioner at any place where there is a danger of fl ammable gas leakage.
In the event of a gas leakage, build-up of gas near the air conditioner may cause a fi re to break out.
•
While following the instructions in this installation manual, install drain piping to ensure proper drainage and insulate
piping to prevent condensation.
Improper drain piping may result in indoor water leakage and property damage.
• Tighten the fl are nut according to the specifi ed method such as with a torque wrench.
If the fl are nut is too tight, it may crack after prolonged use, causing refrigerant leakage.
•
Take adequate steps to prevent the outdoor unit being used as a shelter by small animals.
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can cause malfunctions, smoke or fi re. Please instruct the customer to keep
the area around the unit clean.
•
The temperature of refrigerant circuit will be high, please keep the inter-unit wire away from copper pipes that are not
thermally insulated.
• Only qualifi ed personnel can handle, fi ll, purge and dispose of the refrigerant.
