When relocating the air conditioner, consult the
dealer or a specialist.
•Improper installation may result in water leak,
electric shock, or fire.
•Consult the dealer for necessary measures to take.
After completing the service work, check for a
refrigerant gas leak.
•If leaked gas refrigerant is exposed to a heart
source such as fan heater, stove, and electric grill,
noxious gases may form.
In the event of a refrigerant gas leak, provide
adequate ventilation to the room.
•If leaked refrigerant gas is exposed to a heat source,
noxious gases may form.
With All-Fresh type air conditioners, outdoor air
may be directly blown into the room upon thermo
off. Take this into consideration when installing the
unit.
•Direct exposure to outdoor air may present a health
hazard, and it may also cause food items to
deteriorate.
When installing the unit in a small room, safeguard
against hypoxia that results from leaked refrigerant
reaching the threshold level.
Do not touch the fins on the heat exchanger with
bare hands: they are sharp and dangerous.
Precautions for Handling Units for Use with R410A
Caution
Warning : Carefully read the labels affixed to the main unit.
Do not try to defeat the safety features of the
devices, and do not change the settings.
•Defeating the safety features on the unit such as the
pressure switch and temperature switch or using
parts other than those specified by Mitsubishi
Electric may result in fire or explosion.
Use refrigerant pipes made of C1220 phosphorus
deoxidized copper categorized under H3000
(Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless Pipes and
Tubes), a standard set by JIS. Keep the inner and
outer surfaces of the pipes clean and free of
contaminants such as sulfur, oxides, dust/dirt,
shaving particles, oils, and moisture.
•Contaminants inside the refrigerant piping will cause
the refrigerant oil to deteriorate.
Do not use the following tools that have been used
with the conventional refrigerants.Prepare tools
that are for exclusive use with R410A.
(Gauge manifold, charging hose, gas leak detector,
reverse-flow check valve, refrigerant charge base,
vacuum gauge, and refrigerant recovery
equipment.)
•If refrigerant and /or refrigerant oil left on these tools
are mixed in with R410A, or if water is mixed with
R410A, it will cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.
•Since R410A does not contain chlorine, gas-leak
detectors for conventional refrigerators will not work.
Only use specified parts.
•Have the unit professionally installed.
Improper installation may cause water leak, electric
shock, smoke, or fire.
Use a vacuum pump with a reverse-flow-check
valve.
•If other types of valves are used, the vacuum pump
oil will flow back into the refrigerant cycle and cause
the refrigerator oil to deteriorate.
Do not use the existing refrigerant piping
•The old refrigerant and refrigerator oil in the existing
piping contain a large amount of chlorine, which will
cause the refrigerator oil in the new unit to
deteriorate.
•R410A is a high-pressure refrigerant, and the use of
the existing piping may result in bursting.

may cause the oil in the unit to deteriorate or may
cause the compressor to malfunction.
Use a small amount of ester oil, ether oil, or
alkylbenzene to coat flares and flange connections.
•A large amount of mineral oil will cause the
refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.
Do not use a charging cylinder.
•The use of charging cylinder will change the
composition of the refrigerant and lead to power
loss.
Exercise special care when handling the tools.
•An introduction of foreign objects such as dust, dirt,
or water into the refrigerant cycle will cause the
refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.
Only use R410A refrigerant.
•The use of refrigerants containing chlorine (i.e. R22)
will cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.
Use liquid refrigerant to charge the system.
•Charging the unit with gas refrigerant will cause the
refrigerant in the cylinder to change its composition
and will lead to a drop in performance.
Do not install the unit in a place where there is a
possibility of flammable gas leak.
•Leaked gas accumulated around the unit may start a
fire.
Do not use the unit to preserve food, animals,
plants, artifacts, or for other special purposes.

Install a breaker for current leakage at the power
source to avoid the risk of electric shock.
•Without a breaker for current leakage, there is a risk
of electric shock, smoke, or fire.
Use wires that are specified in the installation
manual.
•The use of other types of wires presents a risk of
electrical current leak, electric shock, smoke, or fire.
Periodically check the platform on which the unit is
placed for damage to prevent the unit from falling.
•If the unit is left on a damaged platform, it may
topple over, causing injury.
Ground the unit.
•Do not connect the grounding on the unit to gas
pipes, water pipes, lightning rods, or the grounding
terminals of telephones. Improper grounding

noise caused by improper grounding may cause the
unit to malfunction.
Use breakers and fuses (electrical current breaker,
remote switch <switch + Type-B fuse>, molded
case circuit breaker) with a proper current
capacity.
•The use of large-capacity fuses, steel wire, or
copper wire may damage the unit or cause smoke or
fire.
When installing draining pipes, follow the
instructions in the manual, and make sure that they
properly drain water so as to avoid dew
condensation.
•If not installed properly, they may cause water leaks
and damage the furnishings.
Make sure the wires are not subject to tension.
•If the wires are too taut, they may break or generate
heat and/or smoke and cause fire.
Exercise caution when transporting products.
•Do not try to move equipments over 20kg (approx.
44 lbs.) alone.
•Do not use the PP bands used on some packages
for transportation.
•Wear protective gloves to avoid injury caused by
touching the fins on the heat exchanger with bare
hands.
•When using a suspension bolt to transport the heat-
source unit, use a four-point suspension. A three-
point suspension does not provide adequate stability
and presents a risk of accidents.
Properly dispose of the packing materials.
•Things such as nails and wood pieces may be
included in the package. Dispose of them properly to
prevent injury.
•Plastic bags present a choking hazard to children.
Tear up the plastic bags before disposing of them to
