Safety Precautions
Ventilate before operating air conditioner
when gas leaked out.
• It may cause explosion, fire, and burn.
Securely install the cover of control box and
the panel.
• If the cover and panel are not installed securely,
dust or water may enter the outdoor unit and fire
or electric shock may result.
If the air conditioner is installed in a small room, measures must be taken to prevent the
refrigerant concentration from exceeding the safety limit when the refrigerant leaks.
• Consult the dealer regarding the appropriate measures to prevent the safety limit from being exceed-
ed. Should the refrigerant leak and cause the safety limit to be exceeded, harzards due to lack of oxy-
gen in the room could result.
