there is a risk of water leakage or
breakdown.
Never open the panel while the inter-
nal fan is rotating.
If there are objects or leaves around

may enter unit and contact electri-
cal parts and may cause a break-
down, smoke or fire.
The use of a non-approved detergent
or improper washing method may
damage the unit’s plastic compo-
nents and cause leaks. Damage,
smoke, or fire may also happen if the
detergent comes in contact with
electrical parts or the unit’s motor.

Consult your dealer for repairs.
If you notice anything abnormal (smell of
burning, etc.), stop the system, turn off

In case the air-conditioner is relocated
elsewhere, contact your dealer or a
professional fitter.
If the air-conditioner fails to cool or warm the room, it may have a refrigerant
leakage. 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 gases could
be generated.
Do not control the system with main
