• Read the precautions in this manual carefully before operating the unit.
• This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in light industry and on farms, or for commercial use
by lay persons.
• Sound pressure level is less than 70 dB (A).
• The precautions described herein are classied as WARNING and CAUTION. They both contain important information
regarding safety. Be sure to observe all precautions without fail.
WARNING
Failure to follow these instructions properly may result in
personal injury or loss of life.
Never attempt.
• After reading, keep this manual in a convenient place so that you can refer to it whenever necessary. If the equipment is
transferred to a new user, be sure also to hand over the manual.
WARNING
• In order to avoid re, explosion or injury, do not operate the unit when harmful gases (e.g. ammable or corrosive) are
detected near the unit.
• Be aware that prolonged, direct exposure to cool or warm air from the air conditioner, or to air that is too cool or too
warm can be harmful to your physical condition and health.
• Do not place objects, including rods, your ngers, etc., in the air inlet or outlet. Product damage or personal injury
may result due to contact with the air conditioner’s high-speed fan blades.
• Do not attempt to repair, dismantle, reinstall or modify the air conditioner yourself as this may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or re hazards.
• Do not use ammable spray near the air conditioner, or otherwise re may result.
• To avoid electric shocks, do not operate with wet hands.
• Beware of re in case of refrigerant leakage. If the air conditioner is not operating correctly, i.e. not generating cool or
warm air, refrigerant leakage could be the cause. Consult your dealer for assistance. The refrigerant within the air
conditioner is safe and normally does not leak.
However, in the event of a leakage, contact with a naked burner, heater or cooker may result in generation of noxious
gas. Do not use the air conditioner until a qualied service person conrms that the leakage has been repaired.
• Do not attempt to install or repair the air conditioner yourself. Improper workmanship may result in water leakage,
electric shocks or re hazards. Please contact your local dealer or qualied personnel for installation and
maintenance work.
• When the air conditioner is malfunctioning (giving off a burning odour, etc.) turn off power to the unit and contact your
local dealer. Continued operation under such circumstances may result in a failure, electric shocks or re hazards.
• Be sure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker. Failure to install the earth leakage circuit breaker may result in
electric shocks or re.
• Be sure to earth the unit. Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or telephone earth lead. Imperfect
earthing may result in electric shocks.
Be sure to follow the
instructions.
Failure to observe these instructions properly may result in
property damage or personal injury, which may be serious
depending on the circumstances.
CAUTION
Be sure to establish an earth
connection.
CAUTION
• Do not use the air conditioner for purposes other than those for which it is intended. Do not use the air conditioner
