About Wi-Fi Interface
This Wi-Fi interface communicates the status information and controls the
commands from the server by connecting to an indoor unit.
Safety Precautions
• Read all safety instructions before installation, setting up, or use of the Wi-Fi
interface.
• This installation manual contains important safety information. Be sure to
comply with the instructions.
• After installing the Wi-Fi interface, provide this installation manual for the user.
Instruct users to store it with their indoor unit instruction manual in a safe
location.
[Precautions for installation]
Warning
(Improper handling may have serious consequences, including serious injury or death.)
• Do not install the Wi-Fi interface by
yourself (user).
Improper installation may result in fire, electric
shock, injury due to fall of the Wi-Fi interface,
or water leaks. Consult the dealer from
whom you purchased the Wi-Fi interface or
professional installer.
• The Wi-Fi interface should be securely
installed in accordance with this
installation manual.
Improper installation may result in fire, electric
shock, or damage, or the Wi-Fi interface
falling.
• The Wi-Fi interface should be mounted in a
location that can support its weight.
If the Wi-Fi interface is installed in a location
that cannot support its weight, the Wi-Fi
interface could fall and cause damage.
• Connect and fasten the electric wires
securely so external force on the wires will
not apply on the terminals.
Improper connection and mounting may
result in breakdown, heat generation, smoke
generation, or fire.
• Mitsubishi Electric’s components or other
designated components must be used for
installation.
Improper component may result in fire,
electric shock, or damage/water leaks.
• Electric work must be performed by
authorized personnel in accordance with
the local regulations and the instructions
detailed in the installation manual.
Inadequate circuit capacity or improper
installation may result in electric shock or fire.
• Do not connect the Wi-Fi interface to earth
inside the indoor unit.
