Safety precautions
•Before starting to use the system, please read these “Safety precautions” carefully to ensure proper operation of the system.
•The safety precautions are classified as “ DANGER” and “ CAUTION”. Precautions as shown in the column “ DANGER” indicate that
improper handling could have dramatic consequences like death, serious injury, etc. Nevertheless, even precautions as shown in the column
“CAUTION” might pose a serious problem, depending on the circumstances. Please observe these precautions with great care, since they are
essential to your safety.
•Symbols which appear frequently in the text have the following meaning:
•When you have read the instruction manual, please keep it near at hand for consultation. If someone else takes over as operator, make certain that the
manual is also passed on to the new operator.
Strictly prohibited Provide positive earthing
Do not expose yourself to the cooling
air for prolonged periods.
This could affect your physical condition and cause
health problems.
Make sure that the system has been properly earthed.
Earth cables should never be connected to a gas pipe, municipal water pipe, light-
ning conductor or telephone earth cable. Incorrect installation of the earth cable
may produce an electric shock.
Depending on the place of installation, a circuit breaker may
be necessary.
If you don’t fit a circuit breaker, you may cause an electric shock.
Do not install near places where inflammable gas may leak.
Gas leaks may cause fire.
Make sure that you drain the hose properly, so that all the
water has dripped out.
Negligence may cause flooding in the room resulting in wet furniture.
Observe instructions with
great care
❚INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
DANGER
CAUTION
❚OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
DANGER
LPG
The system is meant for domestic, residential etc. use.
If used in inferior environments, such as an engineering workplace, the equipment
may function poorly.
The system must be installed by your dealer or a qualified pro-
fessional.
It is not advisable to install the system yourself, as faulty handling may cause leak-
age of water, electric shock or fire.
Store the remote controller out of
reach of infants.
Failure to observe this may result in the batteries
being swallowed or other accidents.
Don’t swing from the system.
If the system falls down,
you may get injured.
Only use approved fuses.
Use of steel or copper wire instead of an approved
fuse is strictly forbidden, as it may cause a breakdown
or fire.
CAUTION
Do not handle the switches with wet
hands.
This may cause an electric shock.
Do not insert anything into the air inlet.
This may cause injury, as the internal fan rotates at
high speed.
RKT012A754_En.p65 05.9.14, 1:42 PM2

–3–
Stand firmly on a stepladder or other
stable object when removing the inlet
panel and filters.
Failure to observe this may result in injury through
insecure objects toppling over.
Consult your dealer for repairs to the
system.
Wrong repairs could cause an electric shock, fire, etc.
If you notice anything abnormal (smell of
burning, etc.), stop the system, turn off the
power switch and consult your dealer.
Continued use of the system in abnormal circum-
stances may result in malfunctioning, electric shock,
fire, etc.
If the air-conditioner is moved else-
where, contact your dealer or a pro-
fessional fitter.
Faulty installation may cause water leakage, elec-
tric shock, fire, etc.
❚PRECAUTIONS FOR TRANSFER OR REPAIRS
DANGER
Safety precautions
CAUTION
Do not place objects near the outdoor
unit or allow leaves to gather around the
unit.
If there are objects or leaves around the outdoor unit,
small animals may enter unit and contact electrical
parts resulting in break down, emission of smoke or
flame.
Do not wash the air-conditioner with wa-
ter.
This could cause an electric shock.
You should not expose any combus-
tion appliance directly to the air
stream of the air-conditioner.
The appliance may then work inadequately.
Do not place a combustible insecticide
or paint spray near the blower, nor aim it
directly at the system.
This may result in a fire.
Do not place anything containing wa-
ter, like vases, on top of the unit.
Water entering the unit could damage the insula-
tion and therefore cause an electric shock.
The system should only be used for its original purpose
and not for anything else like, for instance, preservation of
food, plants or animals, precision devices or works of art.
The system is only intended for use in ordinary domestic rooms.
Any other use of the system may damage the quality of food, etc.
Do not install the system at a place
where the air stream of the blower is
aimed directly at plants or animals.
This will damage their health.
Do not sit on the outdoor unit nor put
anything on it.
If the unit falls down or things drop off it, people
could get hurt.
After a long period of use, check the unit's
support structure from time to time.
If you don't repair any damage straightaway, the
unit may fall down and cause personal injury.
Do not touch the aluminum fins on the
air heat exchanger.
Failure to observe this may result in injury.
If you operate the system together with
a combustion appliance, you must regu-
larly ventilate the indoor air.
Insufficient ventilation may cause accidents due to
oxygen deficiency.
When you clean the system, stop the
unit and turn off the power switch.
Never clean the unit while the internal fan is rotating.
