Safety Precautions
• Do not install the product on a defective installa-
tion stand.
- It may cause injury, accident, or damage to the
product.
• Use a vacuum pump or Inert(nitrogen) gas when
doing leakage test or air purge. Do not compress
air or Oxygen and do not use Flammable gases.
Otherwise, it may cause fire or explosion.
- There is the risk of death, injury, fire or explo-
sion.
• When installing and moving the air conditioner to
another site, do not charge it with a different
refrigerant from the refrigerant specified on the
unit.
- If a different refrigerant or air is mixed with the
original refrigerant, the refrigerant cycle may
malfunction and the unit may be damaged.
• Do not reconstruct to change the settings of the
protection devices.
- If the pressure switch, thermal switch, or other
protection device is shorted and operated
forcibly, or parts other than those specified by
LGE are used, fire or explosion may result.
• 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 outside 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 refriger-
ant concentration from exceeding the safety limit
when the refrigerant leaks.
- Consult the dealer regarding the appropriate
measures to prevent the safety limit from being
exceeded. Should the refrigerant leak and
cause the safety limit to be exceeded, harzards
due to lack of oxygen in the room could result.
Operation
• Do not damage or use an unspecified power
cord.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or
injury.
• Use a dedicated outlet for this appliance.
- There is risk of fire or electrical shock.
• Be cautious that water could not enter the prod-
uct.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, or product
damage.
• Do not touch the power switch with wet hands.
- There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or
injury.
• When the product is soaked (flooded or sub-
merged), contact an Authorized Service Center.
- There is risk of fire or electric shock.
• Be cautious not to touch the sharp edges when
installing.
- It may cause injury.
• Take care to ensure that nobody could step on or
fall onto the outside unit .
- This could result in personal injury and product
damage.
• Do not open the inlet grille of the product during
operation. (Do not touch the electrostatic filter, if
the unit is so equipped.)
- There is risk of physical injury, electric shock, or
product failure.
Installation
• Always check for gas (refrigerant) leakage
after installation or repair of product.
- Low refrigerant levels may cause failure of
product.
• Do not install the product where the noise or
hot air from the outside unit could damage
the neighborhoods.
- It may cause a problem for your neighbors.
• Keep level even when installing the product.
- To avoid vibration or water leakage.
• Do not install the unit where combustible gas
may leak.
- If the gas leaks and accumulates around the
unit, an explosion may result.
• Use power cables of sufficient current carrying
capacity and rating.
- Cables that are too small may leak, generate
heat, and cause a fire.
