Safety Precautions
Safety Precautions
To prevent injury to the user or other people and property damage, the following instructions must be followed.
■Incorrect operation due to ignoring instruction will cause harm or damage. The seriousness is classified by
the following indications.
This symbol indicates the possibility of death or serious injury.
This symbol indicates the possibility of injury or damage to properties only.
Have all electric work done by a licensed electrician according
to "Electric Facility Engineering Standard" and "Interior Wire
Regulations" and the instructions given in this manual and
always use a special circuit.
• If the power source capacity is inadequate or electric work is per-
formed improperly, electric shock or fire may result.
Ask the dealer or an authorized technician to install the HR
unit.
• Improper installation by the user may result in water leakage, elec-
tric shock, or fire.
Always ground the product.
• There is risk of fire or electric shock.
Make the connections securely so that the outside force of the
cable may not be applied to the terminals.
• Inadequate connection and fastening may generate heat and
cause a fire.
For re-installation of the installed product, always contact a
dealer or an Authorized Service Center.
• There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
Do not install, remove, or re-install the unit by yourself (cus-
tomer).
• There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
Do not damage or use an unspecified power cord.
• There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
Do not touch the power switch with wet hands.
• There is risk of fire, electric shock, explosion, or injury.
Avoid a place where rain may enter since the HR unit is
for indoor.
• There is risk of property damage, failure of product, or elec-
tric shock.
Install the HR unit at a place in which it is not affected
by operation mode changing noise.
• Installation within cell such as meeting room etc. may dis-
turb business due to noise.
Always check for gas (refrigerant) leakage after installa-
tion or repair of product.
• Low refrigerant levels may cause failure of product.
Keep level even when installing the product.
•
To avoid vibration or water leakage.
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 HR unit and fire or electric shock may result.
Be cautious when unpacking and installing the product.
• Sharp edges could cause injury. Be especially careful of the case
edges.
Safely dispose of the packing materials.
• Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries.
• Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children may not play with them. If children play with a plastic bag which was
not torn apart, they face the risk of suffocation.
Do not store or use flammable gas or combustibles near the
HR Unit.
• There is risk of fire or failure of product.
Use the correctly rated breaker or fuse.
• There is risk of fire or electric shock.

Installation
■ Select installation location of the HR unit suitable for following conditions
•Avoid a place where rain may enter since the HR unit is for indoor.
•Sufficient service space must be obtained.
•Refrigerant pipe must not exceed limited length.
•Avoid a place subject to a strong radiation heat from other heat source.
•Avoid a place where oil spattering, vapor spray or high frequency electric noise is expected.
•Install the unit at a place in which it is not affected by operation noise. (Installation within cell such as meeting
room etc. may disturb business due to noise.)
•Place where refrigerant piping, drain piping and electrical wiring works are easy.
NOTES
* Be sure to install the inspection door at the electric control side.
** If reducers are used, servicing space must be increased equal to reducer's dimension.

CAUTION:
•Whenever connecting the indoor units with the HR unit, install the indoor units in numerical order
from No.1.
Ex) In case of installing 3 indoor units : No. 1, 2, 3 (O), No. 1, 2, 4 (X), No.1, 3, 4 (X), No.2, 3, 4 (X).
•Take care of no thermal damage on the valves of the HR uint.
(Especially packing part of valve) Wrap the valve with a wet towel when brazing it.
