Safety Precautions

Make the connections securely so that the
outside force of the cable may not be applied
to the terminals.

• Inadequate connection and fastening may gen-

erate heat and cause a fire.

Be sure the installation area does not deteri-
orate with age.

• If the base collapses, the air conditioner could

fall with it, causing property damage, product
failure, or personal injury.

Install and insulate the drain hose to ensure
that water is drained away properly based on
the installation manual.

• A bad connection may cause water leakage.

Be very careful about product transportation.

• Only one person should not carry the product if it

weighs more than 20kg.

• Some products use PP bands for packaging.

Do not use any PP bands for a means of trans-
portation. It is dangerous.

• Do not touch the heat exchanger fins.

Doing so may cut your fingers.

• When transporting the outside unit, suspending

it at the specified positions on the unit base.
Also support the outside unit at four points so
that it cannot slip sideways.

Safely dispose of the packing materials.

• Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries.
• Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children may not play with them. If children play with

a plastic bag which was not torn apart, they face the risk of suffocation.
