stable object when removing the inlet
panel and filters.
Do not place objects near the outdoor
unit or allow leaves to gather around
the unit.
Do not place anything containing wa-
ter, like vases, on top of the unit.
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.
Do not install the system at a place
where the air stream of the blower is
aimed directly at plants or animals.
Do not sit on the outdoor unit nor put
anything on it.
After a long period of use, check the unit's
support structure from time to time.
Do not touch the aluminum fins on the
air heat exchanger.
If you operate the system together
with a combustion appliance, you
must regularly ventilate the indoor air.
When you clean the system, stop the
unit and turn off the power switch.
Do not place household electrical appli-
ances or household items beneath the
indoor or outdoor units.
Contact your dealer to clean inside
the indoor unit, do not attempt to do
so yourself.
Stop the unit and turn off power if you
hear thunder or there is a danger of
lightning.
The system is only intended for use in
ordinary domestic rooms. Any other
use of the system may damage the
quality of food, etc.
Water entering the unit could dam-
age the insulation and therefore
cause an electric shock.
This will damage their health.
If the unit falls down or things drop
off it, people could get hurt.
If you don't repair any damage
straightaway, the unit may fall
down and cause personal injury.
Failure to observe this may result in
injury.
Condensation falling from the unit
can stain objects and cause accidents
or electrical shock.
Insufficient ventilation may cause
accidents due to oxygen deficiency.
Failure to observe this may result in
injury through insecure objects top-
pling over.
Never clean the unit while the internal
fan is rotating.
If there are objects or leaves around
the outdoor unit, small animals
may enter unit and contact electri-
cal parts resulting in break down,
emission of smoke or flame.
The use of a non-approved detergent
or improper washing method can
damage the unit’s plastic compo-
nents and cause leaks. Damage,
smoke, or fire can also result if the
detergent comes in contact with
electrical parts or the unit’s motor.
Electrical storms can damage the unit.
Consult your dealer for repairs to the
system.
If you notice anything abnormal (smell of
burning, etc.), stop the system, turn off the
power switch and consult your dealer.
If the air-conditioner is moved else-
where, contact your dealer or a pro-
fessional fitter.
If the air-conditioner fails to cool or warm, it may have a refrigerant leak. Contact
your dealer.
If refrigerant needs to be added, check with your dealer for proper instructions.
Wrong repairs could cause an electric
shock, fire, etc.
Faulty installation may cause water
leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.
Continued use of the system in ab-
normal circumstances may result in
malfunctioning, electric shock, fire,
etc.
The refrigerant used in your air-conditioner is safe. However, if refrigerant unexpectedly leaks
from the unit onto a fan heater, stove, hotplate or other heat source, harmful products could be
released.
