Safety Precautions for Installing and Relocating the Unit:
Warnings
To ensure safety, please be mindful of the following precautions.
1. When installing or relocating the unit, be sure to keep the refrigerant circuit free from air or substances other than the
specified refrigerant.
Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit will cause system pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in
injury.
2.When installing or moving this unit, do not charge the refrigerant which is not comply with that on the nameplate or
unqualified refrigerant.
Otherwise, it may cause abnormal operation, wrong action, mechanical malfunction or even series safety accident.
3.When refrigerant needs to be recovered during relocating or repairing the unit, be sure that the unit is running in cooling
mode.Then, fully close the valve at high pressure side (liquid valve).About 30-40 seconds later, fully close the valve at low
pressure side (gas valve), immediately stop the unit and disconnect power. Please note that the time for refrigerant recovery
should not exceed 1 minute.
If refrigerant recovery takes too much time, air may be sucked in and cause pressure rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
4.During refrigerant recovery, make sure that liquid valve and gas valve are fully closed and power is disconnected before
detaching the connection pipe.
If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet connected, air will be sucked in and cause pressure
rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
5.When installing the unit, make sure that connection pipe is securely connected before the compressor starts running.
If compressor starts running when stop valve is open and connection pipe is not yet connected, air will be sucked in and cause pressure
rise or compressor rupture, resulting in injury.
6.Prohibit installing the unit at the place where there may be leaked corrosive gas or flammable gas.
If there leaked gas around the unit, it may cause explosion and other accidents.
7.Do not use extension cords for electrical connections. If the electric wire is not long enough, please contact a local service
center authorized and ask for a proper electric wire.
Poor connections may lead to electric shock or fire.
8.Use the specified types of wires for electrical connections between the indoor and outdoor units. Firmly clamp the wires so
that their terminals receive no external stresses.
Electric wires with insufficient capacity, wrong wire connections and insecure wire terminals may cause electric shock or fire.
Safety Precautions for Refrigerant
●To realize the function of the air conditioner unit, a special refrigerant circulates in the system. The used refrigerant is the
fluoride R32,which is specially cleaned. The refrigerant is flammable and inodorous. Furthermore, it can leads to explosion
under certain conditions. But the flammability of the refrigerant is very low. It can be ignited only by fire.
●Compared to common refrigerants, R32 is a nonpolluting refrigerant with no harm to the ozonosphere. The influence upon
the greenhouse effect is also lower. R32 has got very good thermodynamic features which lead to a really high energy
efficiency. The units therefore need a less filling.
WARNING:
●Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those recommended by the manufacture.
Should repair be necessary,contact your nearest authorized Service Centre. Any repairs carried out by unqualified
personnel may be dangerous. The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources. (for
example:open flames , an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater.)
●Do not pierce or burn.
●Appliance shall be installed, operated and stored in a room with a floor area larger than X m
2
. (Please refer to table "a" in
section of " Safety Operation of Inflammable Refrigerant" for Space X.).
●Appliance filled with flammable gas R32. For repairs, strictly follow manufacturers instructions only.Be aware that refrigrants
not contain odour.
●Read specialists manual.
