Safety Considerations

Read these Safety Considerations for Operations carefully before operating an air conditioner or heat pump. Make sure that the unit operates properly during the startup operation. Instruct the user on how to operate and maintain the unit. Inform users 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
NOTE
• Do not install the unit in an area where ammable materials are present due to risk of explosion resulting in serious injury or death.
• Any abnormalities in the operation of the air conditioner or heat pump, such as smoke or re, could result in severe injury or death. Turn off the power and contact your dealer immediately.
• Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes into contact with re, such as from a fan heater, stove, or cooking device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or death.
• 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.
• If equipment utilizing a burner is used in the same room as the air conditioner or heat pump, there is the danger of oxygen deciency which could lead to an asphyxiation hazard resulting in serious injury or death. Be sure to ventilate the room suf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.

• Contact your dealer for repair and maintenance. Improper repair and maintenance may result in water leakage, electric shock, and re. Only use accessories made by Daikin that are specically designed for use with the equipment and have them installed by a professional.
• Contact your dealer to move and reinstall the air conditioner or heat pump. Incomplete installation may result in water leakage, electric shock, and re.
• Never let the indoor unit or the remote controller get wet. Water can cause an electric shock or a re.
• Never use ammable spray such as hair spray, lacquer, or paint near the unit. Flammable spray may cause a re.
• When a fuse blows out, never replace it with one of incorrect ampere ratings or different wires. Always replace any blown fuse with a fuse of the same specication.
• Never remove the fan guard of the unit. A fan rotating at high speed without the fan guard is very dangerous.
• Never inspect or service the unit by yourself. Contact a qualied service person to perform this work.
• Turn off all electrical power before doing any maintenance to avoid the risk of serious electric shock; never sprinkle or spill water or liquids on the unit.
• Do not touch the switch with wet ngers. Touching a switch with wet ngers can cause electric shock.
• Do not allow children to play on or around the unit to prevent injury.
The heat exchanger ns are sharp enough to cut. To avoid
• injury wear gloves or cover the ns while working around them.
Do not put a nger or other objects into the air inlet or air outlet. The fan is rotating at high speed and will cause injury.
• Check the unit foundation for damage on a continuous basis, especially if it has been in use for a long time. If left in a damaged condition the unit may fall and cause injury.
• Placing a ower vase or other containers with water or other liquids on the unit could cause a shock or re if a spill occurs.
• Do not touch the air outlet or horizontal blades while the swing ap is in operation because ngers could get caught and injured.
• Never touch the internal parts of the controller. Do not remove the front panel because some parts inside are dangerous to touch. To check and adjust internal parts, contact your dealer.
CAUTION
• Do not use the air conditioner or heat pump for any other purposes other than comfort cooling or heating. Do not use the unit for cooling precision instruments, food, plants, animals or works of art.
