1. Safety precautions
►
Before installing the unit, make sure you read all the “Safety precau-
tions”.
After installation, perform the test run to ensure normal operation. Then explain to
your customer the “Safety Precautions,” use, and maintenance of the unit based
on the information in the Operation Manual. Both the Installation Manual and the
Operation Manual must be given to the user. These manuals must always be kept
by the actual users.

Warning:
• The unit must not be installed by the user. Ask an installer or an authorized
technician to install the unit. If the unit is installed improperly, water leak-
age, electric shock, or fire may be caused.
• The unit must be installed according to the instructions in order to minimize
the risk of damages by earthquakes, typhoons, or strong winds. An improp
-
erly installed unit may fall down and cause damages or injuries.
• The unit must be securely installed on a structure that can sustain its
weight. If the unit is mounted on an unstable structure, it may fall down and
cause damages or injuries.
• If the air to water heat pump is installed in an enclosed area, measures must
be taken to prevent the refrigerant concentration in the room in the event
of refrigerant leakage. Consult an installer regarding the appropriate meas-
ures. Should the refrigerant leak and cause the concentration oxygen in the
room may lack.
• All electric work must be performed by a qualified technician according to
local regulations and the instructions given in this manual. The units must
be powered by dedicated power lines and the correct voltage and circuit
breakers must be used. Power lines with insufficient capacity or incorrect
electrical work may result in electric shock or fire.
• Use only specified cables for wiring. The wiring connections must be made
securely with no tension applied on the terminal connections. Also, never
splice the cables for wiring (unless otherwise indicated in this document).
Failure to observe these instructions may result in overheating or a fire.
• Terminal block cover panel of the outdoor unit must be firmly fixed. If the
cover panel is mounted improperly, dust and moisture may enter the unit,
and it may cause electric shock or fire.
•
When installing or moving the air to water heat pump, make sure to use the
specified refrigerant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not either mix it
with any other refrigerant or allow air to remain within the pipes. Air enclosed in
the pipes can cause pressure peaks resulting in a rupture and other hazards.
• Make sure to use accessories authorized by Mitsubishi Electric and ask
an installer or an authorized technician to install them. If accessories are
improperly installed, it may cause water leakage, electric shock, or fire.
• Do not remodel the unit. Consult an installer for repairs. If alterations or
repairs are not performed correctly, it may cause water leakage, electric
shock, or fire.
• The user should never attempt to repair the unit or transfer it to another
location. If the unit is installed improperly, it may cause water leakage, elec-
tric shock, or fire. If the air to water heat pump needs to be repaired or
moved, ask an installer or an authorized technician.
• After installation has been completed, make sure that refrigerant does not
leak. If refrigerant leaks into the room and comes into contact with the flame
of a heater or portable cooking range, poisonous gases will be released.
• Use clean enough water which meets water quality standards. The dete
-
rioration of water quality may result in the system breakdown or the water
leakage.
• Never use anything other than water as a medium. It may cause a fire or an
explosion.
• Do not directly use heated or cooled water that is produced by the air to wa
-
ter heat pump as drinking and cooking water, or swimming pool. There is a
risk to damage your health. There is also a risk that installing the water heat
exchanger may corrode if the necessary water quality for the air to water
heat pump system cannot be maintained. If you wish to use the heated or
cooled water from the heat pump for these purposes, take measure such as
to isolate the second heat exchanger within the water piping system.
• When installing or relocating, or servicing the air conditioner, use only the
specified refrigerant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not mix it
with any other refrigerant and do not allow air to remain in the lines.
If air is mixed with the refrigerant, then it can be the cause of abnormal high
pressure in the refrigerant line, and may result in an explosion and other
hazards.
The use of any refrigerant other than that specified for the system will cause
mechanical failure or system malfunction or unit breakdown. In the worst
case, this could lead to a serious impediment to securing product safety.
1.1. Before installation
Caution:
• Do not use the unit in an unusual environment. If the air to water heat pump
is installed exposed to steam, volatile oil (including machine oil), or sulfuric
gas, or exposed to briny air, or covered with snow, the performance can be
significantly reduced and the internal parts can be damaged.
• Do not install the unit where combustible gases may leak, be produced,
flow, or accumulate. If combustible gas accumulates around the unit, it may
cause fire or explosion.
• The outdoor unit produces condensate during the heating operation. Make
sure to provide drainage around the outdoor unit if such condensate is
likely to cause damage.
• When installing the unit in a hospital or in a building where communication
equipment is installed, you may need to take measures to reduce noise and
electronic interference. Inverters, home appliances, high-frequency medical
equipment, and radio communications equipment can cause the air to water
heat pump to malfunction or to breakdown. At the same time, the noise and
electronic interference from the air to water heat pump unit may disturb the
proper operation of medical equipment, and communications equipment.
