3.2.2 Cautions

Do not install the unit in a place where there is a chance of flammable gas leaks: if there is a gas
leak and gas accumulates in the area surrounding the unit, it could cause an explosion.
Do not clean the unit when the power is 'ON': always shut 'OFF' the power when cleaning
or servicing the unit. If not, it could cause an injury due to the high speed running fan or an
electrical shock.
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply by removing the plug from the socket or, by
turning off the main switch if installed upstream of the unit.
Never remove the plug from the socket by pulling out the power cord.
Do not perform cleaning operations of the machine before turning off the unit, unplugging it or
turning off the external switch.
In case the unit is used without air ejection duct, verify that the installation room has got a
volume not less than 10m3, with adequate ventilation. Please note that the temperature of the
expelled air is 5-10°C lower than the inlet air, therefore if not channelled it can cause a significant
lowering of the temperature of the installation room.
Do not continue to run the unit when there is something wrong or there is a strange smell: the
power supply needs to be shut 'OFF' to stop the unit; otherwise this may cause an electrical
shock or fire.
Inside the unit, there are some moving parts. Be especially careful when working near them,
even if the unit is off.
Do not insert fingers or other objects into the fan and evaporator.
The temperatures of heads and exhaust piping of the compressor are usually high.
Therefore be careful when working near condensing coils.
The aluminum fins are very sharp and can cause serious injuries.

3.3 HANDLING OF THE UNIT

As a rule, the unit is to be stored and/or handled in its shipping packing box in upright position and should be empty
without water charge. During the transport (provided that it is done with care) and the storage, it's advisable to not
exceed an inclination angle of 30 degrees (45° for short time). Ambient temperatures for storing is from going -20 to
+70 degrees Celsius.

3.3.1 Handling of the unit with forklift

When using the forklift for handling, the unit must remain mounted on the
pallet. The lifting rate should be kept to a minimum. Due to its top-heaviness,
the unit must be secured against tipping over. To prevent any damage, the
unit must be placed on a level surface.

3.3.2 Manual handling of the unit

For the manual handling, the wooden pallet can be used. It's possible to
use ropes or carrying straps, taking care to avoid ioverturning the unit. The
maximum allowed inclination angle is 45°, the vertical position is advised.
If transport in inclined position (with maximum angle of inclination 45°
for shot period of time) cannot be avoided, the unit should be taken into
operation one hour after it has been moved into final position.
