CAUTION
Read these Safety Precautions carefully to ensure correct installation
This manual classifies the precautions into WARNING and CAUTION
Be sure to follow all the precautions bellow: they are all important for ensuring safety
Failure to follow any of WARING is likely to result in such grave consequences as death or serious injury
Failure to follow any of CAUTION may in some cases result in grave consequences
The following safety symbols are used throughout this manual:
Be sure to observe this instruction Be sure to establish an earth connection Never attempt
After completing installation, test the unit to check for installation errors Give the user adequate instructions concerning the use and cleaning
of the unit according to the Operation Manual
Installation should be left to the dealer or another professional
Improper installation may cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire
Install the air conditioner according to the instructions given in this manual
Incomplete installation may cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire
Be sure to use the suplied or specified installation parts
Use of other parts may cause the unit to come lose, water leakage, electrical shock, or fire
Install the air conditioner on a solid base that can support the unit's weight
An inadequate base or incomplete installation may cause injury in the event the unit falls off the base
Electrical work should be carried out in accordance with the installation manual and the national electrical wiring rules or code of practice
Insufficient capacity or incomplete electrical work may cause electrical shock or fire
Be sure to use a dedicated power circuit Never use a power supply shared by another appliance
For wiring, use a cable long enough to cover the entire distance with no connection
Do not use an extension cord Do not put other loads on the power supply, use a dedicated power circuit
(Failure to do so may cause abnormal heat, electric shock or fire )
Use the specified types of wires for electrical connections between the indoor and outdoor units
Firmly clamp the interconnecting wires so their terminals terminals receive no external stresses Incomplete connections or clamping may cause terminal overheating or fire
After connectiong interconnecting and supply wiring be sure to shape the cables so that they do not put undue force on the electrical
covers or panels
Install covers over the wires Incomplete cover installation may cause terminal overheating, electrical shock, or fire
If any refrigerant has leaked out during the installation work, ventilate the room
(The refrigerant produces a toxic gas if exposed to flames )
After all installation is complete, check to make sure that no refrigerant is leaking out
(The refrigerant produces a toxic gas if exposed to flames )
When installing or relocating the system, be sure to keep the refrigerant circuit free from substances other than the specified
refrigerant(R410A), such as air
(Any presence of air or other foreign substance in the refrigerant circuit causes an abnormal pressure rise or rupture, resulting in injury )
During pump-down, stop the compressor before removing the refrigerant piping
If the compressor is still running and the stop valve is open during pump-down, air will be sucked in while the compressor is running, causing abnormal pressure and no
condense-able added to the system
Be sure to establish a ground Do not ground the unit to a utility pipe, arrester, or telephone earth
In complete earth may cause electrical shock, or fire A high surge current from lightning or other sources may cause damage to the air conditioner
Do not install the air conditioner in a place where there is danger of exposure to inflammable gas leakage
If the gas leaks and builds up around the unit, it may catch fire
Establish drain piping according to the instructions of this manual
Inadequate piping may cause flooding
Tighten the flare nut according to the specified method such as with a torque wrench
If the flare nut is tightened too hard, the flare nut may crack after a long time and cause refrigerant leakage
Make sure to provide for adequate measures in order to prevent that the outdoor unit be used as a shelter by small animals
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can cause malfunctions, smoke or fire Please instruct the customer to keep the area around the unit clean
