destroy the insulation, leading to possible
electric shock.
•When cleaning the unit, first make sure
that the power and circuit breaker are
turned off.
WARNING
FOR FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANT
• Do not use means to accelerate the
defrosting process or to clean, other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not pierce or burn.
• Be aware that the refrigerants may not
contain an odour.
• Compliance with national gas regulations
shall be observed.
• Keep ventilation openings clear of
obstruction.

5IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• The appliance shall be stored in a room
without continuously operating ignition
sources (for example: open flames, an
operating gas appliance) and ignition
sourcesor (for example:an operating
electric heater) close to the appliance. The
appliance shall be stored in a room
without continuously operating ignition
sources (for example: open flames, an
operating gas appliance or an operating
electric heater).
• The appliance shall be stored so as to
prevent mechanical damage from
occurring.
• A warning that the appliance shall be
stored in a well-ventilated area where the
room size corresponds to the room area
as specified for operation.
• Any person who is involved with working
on or breaking into a refrigerant circuit
should hold a current valid certificate from
an industry-accredited assessment
authority, which authorises their
competence to handle refrigerants safely
in accordance with an industry recognised
assessment specification.
• Servicing shall only be performed as
recommended by the equipment
manufacturer. Maintenance and repair
requiring the assistance of other skilled
personnel shall be carried out under the
supervision of the person competent in
the use of flammable refrigerants.
• DO NOT modify the length of the power
cord or use an extension cord to power
the unit.
• DO NOT share a single outlet with other
electrical appliances. Improper power
supply can cause fire or electrical shock.
• Please follow the instruction carefully to
handle, install, clear, service the air
conditioner to avoid any damage or
hazard. Flammable Refrigerant R32 is used
within air conditioner. When maintaining
or disposing the air conditioner, the
refrigerant (R32 or R290) shall be
recovered properly, shall not discharge to
air directly.
• No any open fire or device like switch
which may generate spark/arcing shall be
around air conditioner to avoid causing
ignition of the flammable refrigerant used.
Please follow the instruction carefully
tostore or maintain the air conditioner to
prevent mechanical damage from
occurring.
• Flammable refrigerant - R32 is used in air
conditioner. Please follow the instruction
carefully to avoid any hazard.
• The refrigerating system should not
receive maintenance, service, or repair by
any person.
• Ensure that the area is in the open or that
it is adequately ventilated before breaking
into the system or conducting any hot
work. A degree of ventilation shall
continue during the period that the work
is carried out. The ventilation should
safely disperse any released refrigerant
and preferably expel it externally into the
atmosphere.
• Check that cabling will not be subject to
wear, corrosion, excessive pressure,
vibration, sharp edges or any other
adverse environmental effects. The check
shall also take into account the effects of
aging or continual vibration from sources
such as compressors or fans.
• Under no circumstances shall potential
sources of ignition be used in the
searching for or detection of refrigerant
leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be
used. The following leak detection
methods are deemed acceptable for all
refrigerant systems. Electronic leak
detectors may be used to detect
refrigerant leaks but, in the case of
FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS, the
sensitivity may not be adequate, or may
need re-calibration. (Detection equipment
shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free
area.) Ensure that the detector is not a
potential source of ignition and is suitable
for the refrigerant used. Leak detection
equipment shall be set at a percentage of

6
the LFL of the refrigerant and shall be
calibrated to the refrigerant employed,
and the appropriate percentage of gas
(25% maximum) is confirmed. Leak
detection fluids are also suitable for use
with most refrigerants but the use of
detergents containing chlorine shall be
avoided as the chlorine may react with
the refrigerant and corrode the copper
pipe-work.
NOTE Examples of leak detection fluids are
– bubble method,
– fluorescent method agents.
If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall
be removed/extinguished.
If a leakage of refrigerant is found contact
local manufacter to replace unit.

15CARE AND CLEANING & ENERGY SAVING IDEAS
Tab
Air Filter
Clean your air conditioner occasionally to
keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug the
unit before cleaning to prevent shock or
fire hazards.
The air filter should be checked at least once
a month to see if cleaning is necessary.
Trapped particles in the filter can build up
and cause an accumulation of frost on the
cooling coils.
NOTE: When replacing the air filter after
cleaning, make sure the tabs on the air filter
are on the upper part of filter, and placed
outward as shown in the drawing on the left
side.
Air Filter Cleaning
Cabinet Cleaning
•Push the vent handle to the Vent Closed
position(where applicable).
•Open the front panel.
•Grasp the filter by the center and pull up
and out.
•Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing
detergent and warm water. Rinse filter
thoroughly. Gently shake excess water
from the filter. Be sure filter is thoroughly
dry before replacing.
•Or instead of washing, you may vacuum
the filter clean.
•Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to
prevent shock or fire hazard. The cabinet
and front may be dusted with an oil-free
cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in
a solution of warm water and mild liquid
dishwashing detergent. Rinse thoroughly
and wipe dry.
•Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on
the cabinet front.
•Be sure to wring excess water from the
cloth before wiping around the controls.
Excess water in or around the controls
may cause damage to the air conditioner.
•Plug in air conditioner.
•Do not block air flow inside with blinds,
curtains or furniture; or outside with
shrubs, enclosures, or other buildings.
•The capacity of the room air conditioner
must fit the room size for efficient and
satisfactory operation.
•Install the room air conditioner on the
shady side of your home. A window that
faces north is best because it is shaded
most of the day.
•Close the fireplace damper, floor and wall
registers so cool air does not escape up
the chimney and into the duct work.
•Keep blinds and drapes in other windows
closed during the sunniest part of the day.
•Clean the air filter as recommended in the
section “Care and Cleaning”.
•Proper insulation and weather stripping in
your home will help keep warm air out and
cool air in.
•External house shading with trees, plants
or awnings will help reduce the air
conditioner’s work load.
•Operate heat producing appliances such
as ranges, washers, dryers and
dishwashers during the coolest part of the
day.
Winter Storage
If you plan to store the air conditioner
during the winter, remove it carefully from
the window according to the installation
instructions. Cover it with plastic or return it
to the original carton.
