For proper operation, please read and keep this manual carefully.

Annual energy efficiency perfomance ratio is
calculated byoverall capacity and average
operaing time (apr 500 hours) multiplication in
full-load coling mode operation.
Cooling capacity
is device cooling capaciy (demanded in kWh) in
full-load cooling modeoperation. ERR energy
label index is ratio of cooling capacity to its
electric energy input attainment. Energy label
depends on ERR index rate.
