Safety Precautions
To gain full advantage of the air conditioner's functions and
to avoid malfunction due to mishandling, we recommend
that you read this instruction manual carefully before use.
This air conditioner is classified under "appliances not
accessible to the general public".
The precautions described herein are classified as
WARNING and CAUTION. They both contain important
information regarding safety. Be sure to observe all
precautions without fail.
Failure to follow these instructions
properly may result in personal injury or
loss of life.
Failure to observe these instructions
properly may result in property damage
or personal injury, which may be serious
depending on the circumstances.
Indicates situation that may result in
equipment or property-damage-
only accidents.
After reading, keep this manual in a convenient place
so that you can refer to it whenever necessary. If the
equipment is transferred to a new user, be sure also
to hand over the manual.
Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to cool or
warm air from the air conditioner, or to air that is too
cool or too warm can be harmful to your physical
condition and health.
When the air conditioner is malfunctioning (giving off
a burning odour, etc.) turn off power to the unit and
contact your local dealer.
Continued operation under such circumstances may result
in a failure, electric shocks or fire hazards.
Consult your local dealer about installation work.
Doing the work yourself may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or fire hazards.
Consult your local dealer regarding modification,
repair and maintenance of the air conditioner or the
remote controller.
Improper workmanship may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or fire hazards.
Do not place objects, including rods, your fingers, etc.,
in the air inlet or outlet.
Injury may result due to contact with the air conditioner's
highspeed fan blades.
Beware of fire in case of refrigerant leakage.
If the air conditioner is not operating correctly, i.e. not
generating cool or warm air, refrigerant leakage could be
the cause. Consult your dealer for assistance. The
refrigerant within the air conditioner is safe and normally
does not leak. However, in the event of a leakage, contact
with a naked burner, heater or cooker may result in
generation of noxious gas. Do not longer use the air
conditioner until a qualified service person confirms that
the leakage has been repaired.
Consult your local dealer regarding what to do in case
of refrigerant leakage.
When the air conditioner is to be installed in a small room,
it is necessary to take proper measures so that the amount
of any leaked refrigerant does not exceed the
concentration limit in the event of a leakage. Otherwise,
this may lead to an accident due to oxygen depletion.
Contact professional personnel about attachment of
accessories and be sure to use only accessories
specified by the manufacturer.
If a defect results from your own workmanship, it may
result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
Consult your local dealer regarding relocation and
reinstallation of the air conditioner or the remote
controller.
Improper installation work may result in leakage, electric
shocks or fire hazards.
Be sure to use fuses with the correct ampere reading.
Do not use improper fuses, copper or other wires as a
substitute, as this may result in electric shock, fire, injury or
damage to the unit.
Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker.
Failure to install an earth leakage breaker may result in
electric shocks or fire.
Be sure to earth the unit.
Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or
telephone earth lead. Imperfect earthing may result in
electric shocks or fire.
A high surge current from lightning or other sources may
cause damage to the air conditioner.
Consult the dealer if the air conditioner submerges
owing to a natural disaster, such as a flood or typhoon.
Do not operate the air conditioner in that case, or
otherwise a malfunction, electric shock, or fire may result.
Do not start or stop operating the air conditioner with
the power supply breaker turned ON or OFF.
Otherwise, fire or water leakage may result. Furthermore,
the fan will rotate abruptly if power failure compensation is
enabled, which may result in injury.
Do not use the product in the atmosphere
contaminated with oil vapor, such as cooking oil or
machine oil vapor.
Oil vapor may cause crack damage, electric shocks, or fire.
Do not use the product in places with excessive oily
smoke, such as cooking rooms, or in places with
flammable gas, corrosive gas, or metal dust.
Using the product in such places may cause fire or
product failures.
Do not use flammable materials (e.g., hairspray or
insecticide) near the product.
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as
paint thinner.
The use of organic solvents may cause crack damage to
the product, electric shocks, or fire.
Be sure to use a dedicated power supply for the air
conditioner.
The use of any other power supply may cause heat
generation, fire, or product failures.
CISPR 22 Class A Warning:
