PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION
Never damage (break, process, get access to a heat equipment, bend forcedly, twist, pluck,
weight, bind) the power supply cord or power supply plug. A broken power supply cord or
power supply plug may cause electric shock, short circuit or fire.
Remove the dust on the power supply plug periodically. The dust on the power supply plug may
cause insulation failure by the moisture and results in the fire. Disconnect the power supply plug and
wipe it with a dry cloth.
Insert the power supply plug completely. A faulty insertion may cause electric shock or fire by
heat generation. Never use a damaged power supply plug or loose outlet.
Never connect or disconnect the power supply plug with a wet hand. This may cause electric
shock.
Always use a outlet with rated voltage and amperage exclusively. A combined use with other
equipment may cause fire by heat generation.
Do not use the unit outdoors. Exposure to rain may cause leakage and/or electric shock.
Only qualified engineers or service personnel should install the unit. The installation by
unqualified personnel may cause water leakage, electric shock or fire.
Install the unit at the location capable of bearing the total combined weight (product + optional
accessories + storage items). After installing the unit, be absolutely sure to take steps to
prevent the unit from toppling over. If the unit is installed in a location which is not strong enough
or if the proper steps to prevent toppling are not taken, the unit may topple over, possibly causing
injury.
Do not install the unit in a location where flammable or volatile substances are present.
Installing the unit in a location where flammable or volatile substances are present may cause
explosions and/or a fire.
Do not install the unit where there is a high level of moisture or where it may be splashed with
water. Installing the unit where there is a high level of moisture or where it may be splashed with
water may cause the insulation to deteriorate and give rise to leakage and/or electric shock.
Be absolutely sure to connect the unit to ground in order to prevent electric shock. Failure to
connect the product to ground may give rise to electric shock. If the unit cannot be connected to
ground, ask a qualified contractor to do the grounding work.
Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, water pipe or lightning rod in carrying
out the grounding work. Connecting the unit to ground improperly may give rise to electric shock.
WARNING

PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION
Never store volatile or flammable substances in this unit if the container cannot be sealed.
Such substances may cause explosion or fire if they leak.
Never insert metal objects such as a pin or a wire into any vent, gap or any outlet on the unit.
This may cause electric shock or injury by accidental contact with moving parts.
When handling harmful samples (which consist of toxic, pathogenic or radioactive substances,
for example), install the unit inside a designated isolation facility. If the unit is installed in a
location which is not an isolation facility, there may be detrimental effects on both people and the
natural environment.
Before proceeding with maintenance or checking the unit, set the power switch to the OFF
position, and disconnect the power supply plug. Performing the work while power is still flowing
to the product or while the power supply plug is still connected may give rise to electric shock and/or
injury.
Put on the gloves and mask at the time of maintenance. The contact with or inhale of medication
or aerosols from around the unit may be harmful to your health.
Never splash water directly onto the unit as this may cause electric shock or short circuit.
Never put containers with liquid on the unit as this may cause electric shock or short circuit when
the liquid is spilled.
Never disassemble, repair, or modify the unit yourself. The high voltage area is located inside of
the unit. Any such work carried out by an unauthorized person may result in electric shock. Contact
our sales representative or agent at the time of maintenance or repair of inside component.
Disconnect the power supply plug if there is something wrong with the unit. Continued
abnormal operation may cause electric shock or fire.
Grip the power supply plug when disconnecting the power supply cord from the outlet.
Plucking the power supply cord may cause electric shock or short circuit.
Disconnect the power supply cord when the unit is not used for long periods. Keeping the
connection may cause electric shock, leakage, or fire due to the deterioration of insulation.
If the unit is to be stored unused in an unsupervised area for an extended period, ensure that
children do not have access and that doors cannot be closed completely.
Ask a qualified contractor to disassemble and dispose of the unit. Leaving the unit in a location
which can be accessed by third parties may result in unexpected accidents (small children may
become locked inside, for example).
WARNING

7
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION
Do not leave the plastic bags used for packing in a location where they can be reached by
small children and minors. Leaving the plastic bags used for packing in a location where they can
be accessed by small children and minors may result in unexpected accidents (if, for example, a bag
is placed over the head of a child, its mouth and nose may be blocked, possibly resulting in
suffocation).
When moving the unit, take steps to prevent it from toppling over. Moving the unit using too
much force may cause it to topple over, possibly resulting in injury. An individual whose job it is to
supervise the movement must be put in place and the unit moved while ensuring safety.
Never replace the battery for power failure alarm. Only qualified engineers or service personnel
should replace the battery.
Do not install the unit in a location where corrosive gas such as acid is present. Installing the
unit in a location where corrosive substances are present may cause leakage and/or electric shock by
the deterioration of insulation resulting from the corrosion of electric components.
Do not place this unit in a location where it is difficult to disconnect the power supply plug.
Failure to disconnect the power supply plug may cause fire in the event of a problem or malfunction.
WARNING

8
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE OPERATION
This unit must be plugged into a dedicated circuit protected by branch circuit breaker.
Use a dedicated power source as indicated on the rating label attached to the unit. A
multiple-tap may cause fire resulting from abnormal heating.
Do not climb onto the unit or put any articles on the unit. Injury may be caused by toppling or
damage of the unit or if the articles fall.
Never install the unit in a location where the corrosive material such as sulfur compound is
likely to be generated (near a drainage facilities, etc). Corrosion of the copper pipe may result in
deterioration of cooling unit and consequently the failure.
Do not touch the evaporating pipe directly. The evaporating pipe is hot. Touching the
evaporating pipe during operation of the unit or immediately after stopping of the operation may cause
injury.
Always store the items in the drawers. The storage at outside of the drawers may degrade the
quality of storage items.
Before resuming operation after a stoppage, be absolutely sure to check the settings. The
settings may have changed as a result of the stoppage. When operation is resumed with the settings
changed, the storage item inside the unit may be adversely affected.
Never store corrosive substances such as acid or alkali in this unit if the container cannot be
sealed. These may be harmful to your health and may cause corrosion of inner components or
electric components.
Submit a safety check sheet with the required items filled out so that the safety of the service
engineer is maintained. The safety check sheet is provided as the “Safety Check Sheet (page to be
copied) in this operating instructions.
