SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Please read these “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before installing air conditioning unit and be sure to install it correctly.

After completing installation, conduct a trial operation to check for faults and explain to the customer how to operate the air conditioner and take care of it with the aid of the operation manual. Ask the customer to store the installation manual along with the operation manual for future reference.

This air conditioner comes under the term “appliances not accessible to the general public”.

Meaning of WARNING and CAUTION notices

WARNING.......................	Failure to follow these instructions properly may result in personal injury or loss of life.
CAUTION ........................	Failure to observe these instructions properly may result in property damage or per-
	sonal injury, which may be serious depending on the circumstances.

WARNING

•Ask your dealer or qualified personnel to carry out installation work.

Do not attempt to install the air conditioner yourself. Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric shocks or fire.

•Install the air conditioner in accordance with the instructions in this installation manual. Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric shocks or fire.

•Consult your local dealer regarding what to do in case of refrigerant leakage. When the air conditioner is to be installed in a small room, it is necessary to take proper measures so that the amount of any leaked refrigerant does not exceed the concentration limit in the event of a leakage.

Otherwise, this may lead to an accident due to oxygen depletion.

•Be sure to use only the specified accessories and parts for installation work.

Failure to use the specified parts may result in the unit falling, water leakage, electric shocks or fire.

•Install the air conditioner on a foundation strong enough to withstand the weight of the unit. A foundation of insufficient strength may result in the equipment falling and causing injury.

•Carry out the specified installation work after taking into account strong winds, typhoons or earthquakes. Failure to do so during installation work may result in the unit falling and causing accidents.

•Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is provided for this unit and that all electrical work is carried out by qualified personnel according to local laws and regulations and this installation manual.

An insufficient power supply capacity or improper electrical construction may lead to electric shocks or fire.

•Make sure that all wiring is secured, the specified wires are used, and that there is no strain on the terminal connections or wires.

Improper connections or securing of wires may result in abnormal heat build-up or fire.

•When wiring the power supply and connecting the remote controller wiring and transmission wiring, position the wires so that the control box lid can be securely fastened.

Improper positioning of the control box lid may result in electric shocks, fire or the terminals overheating.

•If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the area immediately. Toxic gas may be produced if the refrigerant comes into contact with fire.

•After completing installation, check for refrigerant gas leakage.

Toxic gas may be produced if the refrigerant gas leaks into the room and comes into contact with a source of fire, such as a fan heater, stove or cooker.

•Be sure to switch off the unit before touching any electrical parts.

•Do not touch the switch with wet hands.

Touching the switch with wet hands can cause electric shock.

•Be sure to earth the air conditioner.

Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or telephone earth lead. Imperfect earthing may result in electric shocks or fire.

A high surge current from lightning or other sources may cause damage to the air conditioner.

•Make sure to charge the specified refrigerant into the refrigerant piping. Do not mix with air or other gases; otherwise it may cause abnormally high pressure or explosion.

•Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker.

Failure to install an earth leakage breaker may result in electric shocks or fire.

CAUTION

•While following the instructions in this installation manual, install drain piping to ensure proper drainage and insulate piping to prevent condensation.

Improper drain piping may result in indoor water leakage and property damage.

•Install the indoor and outdoor units, power cord and connecting wires at least 1 meter away from televisions or radios to prevent picture interference and noise.

(Depending on the incoming signal strength, a distance of 1 meter may not be sufficient to eliminate noise.)

•Remote controller (wireless kit) transmitting distance can be shorter than expected in rooms with electronic fluorescent lamps (inverter or rapid start types).

Install the indoor unit as far away from fluorescent lamps as possible.

•Do not install the air conditioner in the following locations:

1.Where there is a high concentration of mineral oil spray or vapour (e.g. a kitchen). Plastic parts will deteriorate, parts may fall off and water leakage could result.

2.Where corrosive gas, such as sulphurous acid gas, is produced.

Corroding of copper pipes or soldered parts may result in refrigerant leakage.

3.Near machinery emitting electromagnetic radiation.

Electromagnetic radiation may disturb the operation of the control system and result in a malfunction of the unit.

4.Where flammable gas may leak, where there is carbon fibre or ignitable dust suspensions in the air, or where volatile flammables such as paint thinner or gasoline are handled.

Operating the unit in such conditions may result in fire.

•Be sure to attach the air filters (field supply) inside the suction passage. Failure to attach them may result in a malfunction of the equipment.

•Do not touch the heat exchanger fins. Improper handling may result in injury.

•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.

•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. If children play with a plastic bag which was not torn apart, they face the risk of suffocation.

•Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping operation. Always wait at least 5 minutes before turning off the power. Otherwise, water leakage and trouble may occur.

•Please take necessary measures to prevent this product from electromagnetic interference.

•The air conditioner is not intended for use in a potentially explosive atmosphere.

BEFORE INSTALLATION

•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.)

•This unit is for indoor use only.

•The accessories needed for installation must be retained in your custody until the installation work is completed. Do not discard them!

•Decide upon the transportation route.

•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.

•This unit is connected to two outdoor units.

•When carrying or opening the package of the indoor unit, hold the suspension supports (×4) of the indoor unit. Do not apply force to the refrigerant piping, drain piping or plastic parts.

•Do not install or operate the unit in rooms mentioned below.

•Laden with mineral oil, or filled with oil vapor or spray like in kitchens. (Plastic parts may deteriorate which could eventually cause the unit to fall out of place, or could lead to leaks.)

•Where corrosive gas like sulfurous gas exists. (Copper tubing and brazed spots may corrode which could eventually lead to refrigerant leaks.)

•Where exposed to combustible gases and where volatile flammable gas like thinner or gasoline is used. (Gas in the vicinity of the unit could ignite.)

•Where machines can generate electromagnetic waves. (Control system may malfunction.)

•Where the air contains high levels of salt such as that near the ocean and where voltage fluctuates greatly such as that in factories.
