Safety Warnings

Safety Information on In-

stallation of the Air Condi-

tioner

WARNING: The air condition-

er must deﬁnitely be grounded.

Insucientgroundingmaycause

electric shocks. Do not connect

the grounding wire to gas pipes,

water pipes, lightning conduc-

tors or telephone grounding

wire. After mounting, the appli-

ance should be powered up in

order to determine grounding

leak check. If you neglect, it may

cause electric shocks and dam-

ages in the product.

WARNING: The appliance

should be mounted in accor-

dance with "Mounting Instruc-

tions" by FINLUX Authorised

Service. Persons other than

the authorised service provid-

ers must not install the product.

done by an expert electrician ac-

cording to national regulations

on electrical wiring.

WARNING: In the event that

your air conditioner is connect-

ed permanently to a ﬁxed har-

ness system and has a leakage

current that may exceed 10 mA,

a leakage preventer relay with an

operating current not more than

30 mA should be installed on

the ﬁxed cable.

WARNING: Your air condi-

tioner should be wired up to the

mains at appropriate current

with a lagged V-switch.

WARNING: Do not install the

air conditioner near inﬂammable

gases or liquids to avoid situa-

tions such as the risk of ﬁre.

WARNING: In order to avoid

extraordinary noise and vibra-

tion, request from the autho-

rised service personnel a proper

ﬁxation of the air conditioner.

7

tioner, check that the voltage

rating of your mains is com-

patible with the value speci-

ﬁed on the product label.

WARNING: Connect and op-

erate your air conditioner neces-

sarily to a grounded energy line

via a fuse.

near the air conditioner and

the power cable. Excess heat

that might be radiated from

these devices may melt the

plastic parts of the air condi-

tioner.

• Do not touch or run the air

conditioner with wet or moist

hands.

• If the air conditioner will not

be used for a long time, dis-

connect the power supply

from the fuse.

12

should not be mounted on the

stairs, exits or hallways of the

building.

The stable pressure by which the

air conditioner is experienced is

100 Kpa.

The fuse that should be used in

the electrical connection of the

air conditioner is type C 16 A for

9,000 and 12,000 btu and type

C 20 A for 18,000 and 24,000

btu.

Care should be given to the

wire diameter cross-section in

the electrical wiring of the place

where the air condition will be

installed.

Only the outdoor unit of your

air conditioner is proper for use

outside the building.

Choosing the Mounting

Position

Indoor Unit

• There should not be any va-

pour or heat source near the

air conditioner.

• There should not be any ob-

stacle preventing air circula-

tion at the mounting posi-

tion.

• Air circulation should be suf-

ﬁcient.

• Discharge should be easily

executable.

• It should not be close to the

door entrance.

• There should be enough dis-

tance between the air con-

ditioner and the wall, ceiling,

decorations and other ob-

stacles.

• The mounting position

should be about 30 centime-

tres below the ceiling.

Outdoor Unit

• If there is an awning protect-

ing the outdoor unit from

sunlight or rain, make sure

that it does not prevent con-

denser from distributing the

heat.
