1 Safety Precaution

Please take note of the safety item as followings before and after installation process:

1．．．．1 Preparation before Installation

● To check the electrical power supply condition, electrical power supply shall meet the requirement of local concerned rule and regulation;

● The tolerance of voltage shall be less than ±10% based on the nominal voltage, It is not allowed to share the same power cable for

welding, which will cause the vibration of power supply;

● To install the equipment , it is a must to have professional technician or Engineer to conduct the installation, otherwise, If installation is completely improperly, will cause units leakage of water, electric power and cause fire accident etc;

● Please follow up the installation instruction of this manual to avoid any leakage of water, electric power and cause fire

● To set up an independent electrical power supply cable and meet the local concerned rule and regulation;

● Before installation of outdoor units, it shall build a solid base in the ground, also to take some measure to prevent the typhoon, earthquake

etc;

● The floor or base for installation of units shall be strong enough to support the weight of outdoor units; If intensity is not enough will cause unnecessary damage of units and loss;

● To prepare the installation kits and protection kits , such as glove, uniform to avoid any kind of injury;

1．．．．2 Safety Notice on processing of installation

● Do not touch the fins of heat exchanger; Improper installation will cause body injury and fins damage to cause low heat exchange

efficiency;

● Do fix the outdoor unit tightly, to avoid any vibration; The cover panel of controller box shall be fixed tightly to avoid any dirt, water to enter to cause some failure and damage;

● When installing the indoors units, please be sure the use the air filter and electrical heater provided by the supplier;

● When installing the units, in case the leakage of refrigerant, please open the window and door for good ventilation; to avoid any fire

because of the poisonous gas may occurred;

● If the indoor unit is installed in a confined limited space, it shall take prevent measure to avoid leakage of refrigerant;

● Cable of electrical power shall be far away from water, humidity, to avoid leakage of power and fire accidence;

● Do not change any protector setting, otherwise it will cause units failure , fire or explosion;

● Do not use the addition to check leakage of refrigerant;

● Please do not pull the cable of electrical power too tight, otherwise it will cause the breakage of cable;

● To ensure the cable can support sufficient ampere and power consumption;

● Units earthling is a must, to avoid any leakage of electrical power ; do not to connect earth line with telephone line;

● Indoor condensing water shall be drainage in proper way, to avoid dripping of condensing water, it shall have the insulation material to

wrap the outside layer of piping;

● Products shall be handled and carried very carefully, to find the profession people and right equipment for package and transportation of units;

● After proper installation, it shall check the air tightness, to make sure no leakage of piping;

1．．．．3 Notice of test operation

● Before running the units, it shall to start the main switch for 12 hours, if not do in this way, it will cause the damage of components; The

power shall be in standby condition if units are required to operation frequently;

● Do not to contact the main power switch if the hand is wet to avoid leakage of electrical power;

● Do not to remove the front panel or protection guard when units is on operation; the high speed running part of the operation units will

cause unnecessary damage and injury;

● Do not the touch the refrigerant piping when units is running or just stop running, to avoid unnecessary hurt for hand because the piping maybe too hot or too cold;

● Do not switch off the power when units stop running, wait for 5 minutes to shut off the electrical power;

Warning
