1. The following should always be observed for safety
• After reading this manual, be sure to keep it together with the instruction
manual in a handy place on the customer’s site.
: Indicates a part which must be grounded.
Warning:
Carefully read the labels afxed to the main unit.
◎ : Indicates warnings and cautions when using R32 refrigerant.
Warning:
• Do not install it by yourself (customer).
Incomplete installation could cause injury due to re, electric shock, the
unit falling or leakage of water. Consult the dealer from whom you pur-
chased the unit or special installer.
• Servicing shall be performed only as recommended by the manufacturer.
• For installation and relocation work, follow the instructions in the Installa-
tion Manual and use tools and pipe components specically made for use
with R32 refrigerant. If pipe components not designed for R32 refrigerant
are used and the unit is not installed correctly, the pipes may burst and
cause damage or injuries.
In addition, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result.
•
Do not alter the unit. It may cause re, electric shock, injury or water leakage.
• This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in
light industry and on farms, or for commercial use by lay persons.
• Install the unit securely in a place which can bear the weight of the unit.
When installed in an insufcient strong place, the unit could fall causing in-
jured.
• Use the specied wires to connect the indoor and outdoor units securely
and attach the wires rmly to the terminal board connecting sections so the
stress of the wires is not applied to the sections.
Incomplete connecting and xing could cause re.
• Do not use intermediate connection of the power cord or the extension cord
and do not connect many devices to one AC outlet.
It could cause a re or an electric shock due to defective contact, defective
insulation, exceeding the permissible current, etc.
•
Check that the refrigerant gas does not leak after installation has completed.
• Perform the installation securely referring to the installation manual.
Incomplete installation could cause a personal injury due to re, electric
shock, the unit falling or leakage of water.
• Use only specied cables for wiring. The wiring connections must be made
securely with no tension applied on the terminal connections. Also, never
splice the cables for wiring (unless otherwise indicated in this document).
Failure to observe these instructions may result in overheating or a re.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid hazard.
• The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regula-
tions.
• Perform electrical work according to the installation manual and be sure to
use an exclusive circuit.
If the capacity of the power circuit is insufcient or there is incomplete elec-
trical work, it could result in a re or an electric shock.
• Attach the electrical part cover to the indoor unit and the service panel to
the outdoor unit securely.
If the electrical part cover in the indoor unit and/or the service panel in the
outdoor unit are not attached securely, it could result in a re or an electric
shock due to dust, water, etc.
• Be sure to use the part provided or specied parts for the installation work.
The use of defective parts could cause an injury or leakage of water due to
a re, an electric shock, the unit falling, etc.
• Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during operation.
If the refrigerant comes in contact with a ame, poisonous gases will be
released.
•
When pumping down the refrigerant, stop the compressor before disconnect-
ing the refrigerant pipes. The compressor may burst if air etc. get into it.
• When installing or relocating, or servicing the air conditioner, use only the
specied refrigerant (R32) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not mix it with
any other refrigerant and do not allow air to remain in the lines.
If air is mixed with the refrigerant, then it can be the cause of abnormal high
pressure in the refrigerant line, and may result in an explosion and other
hazards.
The use of any refrigerant other than that specied for the system will cause
mechanical failure or system malfunction or unit breakdown. In the worst
case, this could lead to a serious impediment to securing product safety.
• Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other
than those recommended by the manufacturer.
• The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ig-
nition sources (for example: open ames, an operating gas appliance or an
operating electric heater).
• Do not pierce or burn.
• Be aware that refrigerants may not contain an odour.
◎ Pipe-work shall be protected from physical damage.
• The installation of pipe-work shall be kept to a minimum.
• Compliance with national gas regulations shall be observed.
• Keep any required ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
◎ Do not use low temperature solder alloy in case of brazing the refrigerant
pipes.
◎ When performing brazing work, be sure to ventilate the room sufciently.
Make sure that there are no hazardous or ammable materials nearby.
When performing the work in a closed room, small room, or similar loca-
tion, make sure that there are no refrigerant leaks before performing the
work.
If refrigerant leaks and accumulates, it may ignite or poisonous gases may
be released.
◎ The appliance shall be stored in a well-ventilated area where the room size
corresponds to the room area as specied for operation.
◎ Keep gas-burning appliances, electric heaters, and other re sources (igni-
tion sources) away from the location where installation, repair, and other air
conditioner work will be performed.
If refrigerant comes into contact with a ame, poisonous gases will be released.
◎ Do not smoke during work and transportation.
• Please provide an exclusive circuit for the air conditioner and do not con-
nect other electrical appliances to it.
• Be sure to read “The following should always be observed for safety” be-
fore installing the air conditioner.
• Be sure to observe the cautions specied here as they include important
items related to safety.
•
The indications and meanings are as follows.
Warning:
Could lead to death, serious injury, etc.
Caution:
Could lead to serious injury in particular environments when operated incor-
rectly.

MEANINGS OF SYMBOLS DISPLAYED ON THE UNIT
WARNING
(Risk of re)
This mark is for R32 refrigerant only. Refrigerant type is written on nameplate of outdoor unit.
In case that refrigerant type is R32, this unit uses a ammable refrigerant.
If refrigerant leaks and comes in contact with re or heating part, it will create harmful gas and there is risk of re.
Read the OPERATION MANUAL carefully before operation.
Service personnel are required to carefully read the OPERATION MANUAL and INSTALLATION MANUAL before operation.
Further information is available in the OPERATION MANUAL, INSTALLATION MANUAL, and the like.
