Safety precautions
• Keep this manual where the operator can easily find it.
• Read the precautions in this manual carefully before operating the unit.
• This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in light industry and on
farms, or for commercial and household use by lay persons.
• Sound pressure level is less than 70 dB (A).
• The precautions described herein are classified as WARNING and CAUTION. They both contain
important information regarding safety. Be sure to observe all precautions without fail.
WARNING
• The appliance must be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources (for
example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
• In order to avoid fire, explosion or injury, do not operate the unit when harmful gases (e.g.
flammable or corrosive) are detected near the unit.
• Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to cool or warm air from the air conditioner, or to air that is
too cool or too warm can be harmful to your physical condition and health.
• Do not place objects, including rods, your fingers, etc., in the air inlet or outlet. Product damage or
personal injury may result due to contact with the air conditioner’s high-speed fan blades.
• Do not attempt to repair, dismantle, reinstall or modify the air conditioner yourself as this may result
in water leakage, electric shocks or fire hazards.
• Do not use flammable gasses (hairsprays, insecticides etc.) near the unit. Do not use benzine or
thinner to wipe the unit.
It could cause cracking, electric shocks or fire. (only for R32 refrigerant)
• Do not use refrigerant other than the one indicated on the outdoor unit (R410A/R32) when installing,
moving or repairing. Using other refrigerants may cause trouble or damage to the unit, and personal
injury.
• To avoid electric shocks, do not operate with wet hands.
• Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may result in electric shocks or fi re.
• Do not place water containers (vases etc.) above the unit, as this may result in electric shocks or fire
hazards.
• Beware of fire in case of refrigerant leakage. If the air conditioner is not operating correctly,
i.e. not generating cool or warm air, refrigerant leakage could be the cause. Consult your
dealer for assistance. The refrigerant within the air conditioner is safe and normally does
not leak. However, in the event of a leakage, contact with a naked burner, heater or cooker
may result in generation of noxious gas. Do not longer use the air conditioner until a qualified ser-
vice person confirms that the leakage has been repaired.
