WARNING
Read these SAFETY PRECAUTIONS carefully to ensure correct installation.
Precautions are classified as WARNING and CAUTION. Ensure all precautions are
observed as they are important to ensure your safety.
Failure to observe precautions may cause grave consequences.
Failure to follow any WARNING is likely to result in grave consequences such as death or serious injury.
The following symbol used in this manual should be strictly oserved:
NEVER ATTEMPT
.
CAUTION
Failure to follow any CAUTION may result in grave consequences in some cases.
WARNING
1) Installation should be carried out by a technically competent person, the dealer or specialist professional
Improper installation may cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
2) Installation should be according to instructions given in this manual. Incomplete installation may cause
water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
3) Only use the accessories, parts supplied and specified. Use of other parts may cause failure, water
leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
4) Install the air conditioner on a solid and firm base that can withstand the weight of the unit. An inadequate
base or incorrect installation may cause injury and damage if the unit falls off the base.
,
5) Electrical work must be carried out in accordance with the installation manual and the national electrical
wiring standards, regulations and code of conduct. A dedicated circuit must be used and never share the
power supply with another appliance. Insufficient capacity or incorrect electrical work may cause electrical
shock, or fire.
6) Use the specified cables for electrical connections between indoor and outdoor units. Firmly clamp the
cables so that no external stress is placed on the terminal. Incorrect connection or clamping may cause
terminal heating, electric shock or fire.
7) After connecting the interconnecting cables, properly arrange the cables and the cable covers so that there
is no undue pressure on the electrical covers or panels. Incorrect cover installation may cause terminal
overheating, electrical shock or fire.
8) When carrying out piping connection, take care not to let air substances other than the specified
refrigerant into refrigeration cycle. Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant
circuit causes abnormal pressure rise or rupture, resulting in injury.
9) An earth and an earth leakage breaker must be installed. Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, arrester
or telephone earth. Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock or fire. A high surge current from
lightning or other sources may cause damage to the air conditioner.
CAUTION
3) Ensure measures are taken so to prevent the outdoor unit from being used as a shelter by small animals
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can cause malfunction, smoke or fire.
1) Do not install the unit in a place where there is any likely exposure to flammable gas leakage. If the
gas leaks and builds up around the unit, it may catch fire.
2) Carry out drainage piping according to the instructions of this manual. Inadequate piping may cause
flooding and leakage.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
10) After the installation is completed, check to make sure that no refrigerant is leaking out. The refrigerant
is toxic gas if exposed to flames.
