DANGER
Do not ground the unit to water pipes, telephone wires or lightning rods as incomplete grounding •
could cause a severe shock hazard resulting in severe injury or death, and to gas pipes because a
gas leak could result in an explosion which could lead to severe injury or death.
Do not install unit in an area where fl ammable materials are present due to risk of explosion result- •
ing in serious injury or death.
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and displaces oxygen. A massive leak could lead to oxygen deple- •
tion, especially in basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur leading to serious injury or death.
If the refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the area immediately. •
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact with fi re such as from a fan, heater, stove or
cooking device. Exposure to this gas could result in severe injury or death.
After completing the installation work, check that the refrigerant gas does not leak. •
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in contact with fi re such as from a fan, heater, stove or
cooking device. Exposure to this gas could result in severe injury or death.
Safely dispose of the packing materials. •
Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries. Tear
apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children will not play with them. Children playing
with plastic bags face the danger of death by suffocation.

temperature or, if you must touch them, be sure to wear proper gloves.
CAUTION
While following the instructions in this installation manual, insulate piping in order to prevent con- •
densation.
Improper piping insulation may result in water leakage and property damage.
Be very careful about product transportation. •
Some products use PP bands for packaging. Do not use any PP bands for a means of transportation. It
is dangerous.
Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping operation. •
Always wait at least fi ve minutes before turning off the power. Otherwise, water leakage and trouble may occur.
Make sure to provide for adequate measures in order to prevent that the outdoor unit be used as a •
shelter by small animals.
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can cause malfunctions, smoke or fi re. Please instruct
the customer to keep the area around the unit clean.
NOTE
Install the indoor and outdoor units, power supply wiring and connecting wires at least 3.5ft. away •
from televisions or radios in order to prevent image interference or noise.
(Depending on the radio waves, a distance of 3.5ft. may not be suffi cient enough to eliminate the noise.)
Remote controller (wireless kit) transmitting distance can result shorter than expected in rooms •
with electronic fl uorescent lamps. (inverter or rapid start types)
Install the indoor unit as far away from fl uorescent lamps as possible.
Dismantling of the unit, treatment of the refrigerant, oil and eventual other parts, should be done in •
accordance with the relevant local and national regulations.
BEFORE INSTALLATION2.
When moving the unit while removing it from the packing case, be sure to lift it by the four hanger •
brackets. Aboid putting any pressure on other parts, especially, holizontal fl aps, the refrigerant piping, drain piping, and other resin parts.
Be sure to remove a cushion (corrugated paper) located between the heat exchanger and the right air fi lter. •
Be sure to check the type of R410A refrigerant to be used before installing the unit. (Using an incorrect •
refrigerant will prevent normal operation of the unit.)
The accessories needed for installation must be retained in your custody until the installation work is •
completed. Do not discard them!
Decide upon a line of transport. •
Leave the unit inside its packaging while moving, until reaching the installation site. Where unpacking is •
unavoidable, use a sling of soft material or protective plates together with a rope when lifting, to avoid
damage or scratches to the unit.
