After-sales service and warranty
After-sales service:
WARNING
• Do not modify the unit.
This may cause electric shock or fire.
• Do not disassemble or repair the unit.
This may cause electric shock or fire.
Contact your dealer.
• If the refrigerant leaks, keep out of fire.
The refrigerant used in this unit is safe.
Although the refrigerant does not usually leak, if the refriger-
ant leaks out into a room and comes in contact with the com-
bustible air in the equipment such as fan heater, stove, oil
(gas) cooker, etc., it will cause toxic gas to be generated.
When a refrigerant leakage failure has been repaired, con-
firm a service person that the leakage point has been cor-
rected surely before restarting operation.
• Do not remove or reinstall the unit by yourself.
Incomplete installation may cause a water leakage electric
shock and fire.
Contact your dealer.

Minimum storage period of important parts
Even after a certain type of air conditioner is discontinued,
we have the related important parts in stock for 6 years at
least.
The important parts indicate parts essential to operate the air
conditioner.
Recommendations for maintenance and inspec-
tion
Since dust collects after using the unit for several years, the
performance will be deteriorated to some extent.
Taking apart and cleaning inside require technical expertise,
so we recommend entering a maintenance and inspection
contract (at a cost) separate from normal maintenance.
Recommended inspection and maintenance
cycles
[Note: The maintenance cycle is not the same as
the warranty period.]
Table 1 assumes the following usage conditions.
• Normal use without frequent starting and stopping of the
machine.
(Although it varies with the model, we recommend not start-
ing and stopping the machine more than 6 times/hour for
normal use.)
• Operation of the product is assumed to be 10 hours/day,
2500 hours/year.
