Safety precautions
CAUTION
•
Do not touch the aluminum fins on the
heat exchanger.
It may result in injury.
•
Do not place household electrical
appliances or household items under-
neath the indoor or outdoor units.
Condensation falling from the unit may
stain objects and cause accidents or
electrical shock.
•
Do not operate the system without the
air filter.
It can cause malfunction of the system
due to clogging of the heat exchanger.
•
Do not shut off the power source
immediately after stopping the
operation.
Wait at least 5 minutes, otherwise there is
a risk of water leakage or breakdown.
•
Do not control the system with main
power switch.
It can cause fire or water leakage. In
addition, the fan can start unexpectedly,
which can cause personal injury.
•
Do not pour liquid into the unit and do
not put water container on the unit.
Water entering the unit could damage the
insulation and therefore cause an electric
shock.
•
If you operate air-conditioner together
with a combustion appliance, you must
regularly ventilate the indoor air.
Insufficient ventilation may cause
accidents due to oxygen deficiency.
•
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.
•
When you clean air-conditioner, stop
the unit and turn off the power source.
Never open the panel while the internal
fan is rotating.
•
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 and may
cause a break-down, smoke or fire.
•
Contact your dealer to clean inside the
indoor unit, do not attempt to do by
yourself.
The use of a non-approved detergent or
improper washing method may damage
the unit’s plastic components and cause
leaks. Damage, smoke, or fire may also
happen if the detergent comes in contact
with electrical parts or the unit’s motor.
•
Stop the unit and turn off the power if
you hear thunder or there is a danger
of lightning.
It may damage the unit.
•
If the power cable becomes damaged,
contact your dealer or a qualified
installer.
If it is not replaced, it may cause a
breakdown or fire.
