Safety Precautions

Read these safety considerations for operations carefully before installing air conditioning equipment. After completing the installation, make sure that the unit operates properly during the startup operation. Instruct the customer on how to operate and maintain the unit. Inform customers that they should store this operation manual with the installation manual for future reference. Meanings of DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE Symbols:
DANGER WARNING CAUTION
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
Never do.
Be sure to ground the air conditioner. Never touch the air conditioner (including the remote
controller) with a wet hand.
DANGER
For refrigerant leakage, consult your dealer.• Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen. A massive leak could lead to oxygen depletion, especially in basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur leading to serious injury or death. Refrigerant gas may produce a 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 cause severe injury or death. Any abnormalities in the operation of the air conditioner such as smoke or fi re could result in severe injury or death. Turn off the power and contact your dealer immediately for instructions. Do not install the unit in an area where fl ammable materials are present due to risk of explosion resulting in serious injury or death. If equipment utilizing a burner is used in the same room as the air conditioner, there is the danger of oxygen defi ciency which could lead to an asphyxiation hazard resulting in serious injury or death. Be sure to ventilate the room suffi ciently to avoid this hazard. 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.
WARNING
It is not good for health to expose your body to the air fl ow for a long time. Do not put your fi nger or other objects into the air outlet or inlet as the fan is rotating at high speed and could cause injury. Always keep small children away from the unit during operation. Do not attempt to repair, relocate, modify or reinstall the air conditioner by yourself. Incorrect work or modifi cations could cause electric shocks, fi re or other damage. For repairs and reinstallation, consult your Daikin dealer for advice and information.
If the air conditioner is not cooling (heating) properly, the refrigerant may be leaking, contact your authorized dealer or qualifi ed service repairman. When making repairs which requires adding refrigerant, consult with your authorized dealer or qualifi ed service repairman. Do not attempt to install the air conditioner by yourself. Improper installation could result in water leakage, electric shocks or fi re. For installation, consult your authorized dealer or a qualifi ed technician.
Be sure to follow the instructions.
Never allow the air conditioner or remote controller to get wet.

CAUTION
The air conditioner must be grounded. Improper grounding may result in electric shocks. Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas • pipe, water pipe, lightning rod, or a telephone ground line. Follow all local and state electrical codes.
Do not use this unit for cooling precision instruments, food, plants, animals or works of art.• Never expose little children, plants or animals directly to the air fl ow. Do not block air inlets nor outlets. Impaired air fl ow may result in poor performance or equipment problems. Do not stand, sit, or place objects on the outdoor unit. To avoid injury, do not remove the fan guard.

CAUTION
Do not place anything under the indoor or outdoor unit that must be kept away from moisture, such as electrical or electronic • equipment. In certain conditions, moisture in the air may condense and drip. Check the unit stand and fi ttings for damage annually. Do not touch the air inlet and aluminum fi ns of outdoor unit. It may cause injury and/or damage the heat transfer surface. This appliance is NOT intended for use by young children or impaired persons without proper supervision.• Young children should be supervised to ensure that they DO NOT play with or near the air fl ow of this appliance. Do not pull at the conduit or hang anything on it. Otherwise it will cause fi re or electric shock. Do not touch the heat exchanger fi ns. Improper handling may result in injury. Do not turn off the power immediately after stopping operation. Always wait at least 5 minutes before turning off the power to avoid • water leakage or other problems.
To avoid personal injury or equipment damage be sure to stop the operation, turn the breaker off or pull out the supply cord before • cleaning or servicing the unit. NOTE: More than one disconnect may be required to shut off all power. Do not connect the air conditioner to a power supply different from the one specifi ed. It may cause improper operation or fi re. Depending on the environment, state and local electrical codes, a ground fault circuit interrupter may be required. Improper • grounding or lack of a ground fault circuit interrupter may result in electrical shock, injuries, or death. It is recommended to install a ground fault circuit interrupter if one is not already available. • This helps prevent electrical shocks or fi re. Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage. Improper drainage may cause water damage to the building, or its furnishing.• Depending on the usage environment, water may leak from the air conditioner. If this happens, contact your Daikin Dealer.• The remote controller should be installed in such away that children cannot play with it.• Do not place objects in direct proximity of the outdoor unit and do not let leaves and other debris accumulate around the unit.• Leaves are a hotbed for small animals which can enter the unit. Once in the unit, such animals can cause malfunctions, smoke or re when making contact with electrical parts.
Do not operate the air conditioner with wet hands.
Do not wash the indoor unit with excessive water, only use a slightly wet cloth.• Do not place things such as vessels containing water or anything else on top of the unit. Water may penetrate into the unit and • degrade electrical insulations, resulting in an electric shock.
Installation site.
Operate the air conditioner in a suffi ciently ventilated area and not surrounded by obstacles. Do not use the air conditioner in the following places.
Places with a mist of mineral oil, such as cutting oil.a. Locations such as coastal areas where there is a lot of salt in the air.b. Locations such as hot springs where there is a lot of sulfur in the air.c. Locations such as factories where the power voltage varies a lot.d. In cars, boats, and other vehicles.e. Locations such as kitchens where oil may splatter or where there is steam in the air.f. Locations where equipment produces electromagnetic waves.g. Places with an acid or alkaline mist.h. Places where fallen leaves can accumulate or where weeds can grow.i.
Consider the nuisance of noise to your neighbors.
Pay Attention to Operating Sound. Be sure to use the following places:
Places that can suffi ciently withstand the weight of the air conditioner yet can suppress the operating sound and vibration of the air a. conditioner. Places where warm air from the air outlet of the outside unit or the operating sound of the outside unit does not annoy neighbors.b. Make sure that there are no obstacles close to the outside unit. Obstacles close to the outside unit may drop the performance of the outside unit or increase the operating sound of the outside unit. Consult your dealer if the air conditioner in operation generates unusual noise.
Electrical work.
For power supply, be sure to use a separate power circuit dedicated to the air conditioner.
System relocation.
Relocating the air conditioner requires specialized knowledge and skills. Please consult the dealer if relocation is necessary for moving or remodeling.
