R32 Refrigerant Warnings
• The maximum refrigerant charge amount: 690g for 6K, 400g for 8K, and 900g for 10K.
• If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the area immediately. Toxic gas may be produced
if the refrigerant comes into contact with fire.
• After completing installation, check for refrigerant gas leakage. Toxic gas may be produced if the
refrigerant gas leaks into the room and comes into contact with a source of fire, such as a fan
heater, stove, or cooker.
•
This air conditioner should be installed by qualified personnel to eliminate static electricity during
installation.
• When installing or relocating the air conditioner, be sure to bleed the refrigerant circuit to ensure it
is free of air, and use only the specified refrigerant (R32). The presence of air or other foreign matter
in the refrigerant circuit will cause an abnormal rise in pressure, which may result in equipment
damage and even injury.
• Keep any required ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
• Servicing shall be performed only as recommended by the manufacturer.
• The appliance shall be stored in a well-ventilated area where the room size corresponds to the room
area as specified for operation.
•
The appliance should be stored in a room without open flames e.g. a continuously operating gas
appliance and without ignition sources e.g. an electric heater.
• The appliance shall be stored properly so as to prevent mechanical damage from occurring.
Specific information regarding appliances with R32 refrigerant gas
• Thoroughly read all of the warnings.
• When defrosting and cleaning the appliance, do not use any tools other than those recommended by
