8-1. Safety Cautions
DANGER
•
FOR USE BY QUALIFIED PERSONS ONLY.
•
TURN OFF MAIN POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. MAKE SURE
ALL POWER SWITCHES ARE OFF. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.
•
CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE CORRECTLY. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS CONNECTED
WRONGLY, ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE DAMAGED.
•
CHECK THE EARTH WIRE THAT IT IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE INSTALLATION.
•
DO NOT INSTALL NEAR CONCENTRATIONS OF COMBUSTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
•
TO PREVENT OVERHEATING THE INDOOR UNIT AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE THE UNIT
WELL AWAY (MORE THAN 2 M) FROM HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEATORS,
FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.
•
WHEN MOVING THE AIR-CONDITIONER FOR INSTALLING IT IN ANOTHER PLACE AGAIN, BE VERY
CAREFUL NOT TO GET THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R-22) WITH ANY OTHER GASEOUS BODY
INTO THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS MIXED IN THE REFRIGERANT,
THE GAS PRESSURE IN THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE BECOMES ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT
RESULTINGLY CAUSES BURST OF THE PIPE AND INJURIES ON PERSONS.
•
IN THE EVENT THAT THE REFRIGERANT GAS LEAKS OUT OF THE PIPE DURING THE
INSTALLATION WORK, IMMEDIATELY LET FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM. IF THE REFRIGERANT GAS
IS HEATED BY FIRE OR SOMETHING ELSE, IT CAUSES GENERATION OF POISONOUS GAS.
