DANGER
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxy-
gen.
A massive leak can lead to oxygen depletion, espe-
cially in basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could
occur leading to serious injury or death.
Do not ground units to water pipes, gas pipes, tele-
phone wires, or lightning rods as incomplete ground-
ing can cause a severe shock hazard resulting in
severe injury or death. Additionally, grounding to gas
pipes could cause a gas leak and potential explosion
causing severe injury or death.
If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate
the area immediately. Refrigerant gas may produce
this gas could cause severe injury or death.
After completing the installation work, check that the
refrigerant gas does not leak throughout the system.

cause serious injury or death.
Safely dispose all packing and transportation mate-
rials in accordance with federal/state/local laws or
ordinances. Packing materials such as nails and other
metal or wood parts, including plastic packing ma-
terials used for transportation may cause injuries or
death by suffocation.

of the control box cover may result in electric shocks,
Before touching electrical parts, turn off the unit.
This equipment can be installed with a Ground-Fault
Circuit Breaker (GFCI). Although this is a recognized
measure for additional protection, with the earthing
system in North America, a dedicated GFCI is not
necessary.
Securely fasten the outdoor unit terminal cover (pan-
el). If the terminal cover/panel is not installed properly,
or electric shock.
When installing or relocating the system, keep the
refrigerant circuit free from substances other than the
ence of air or other foreign substance in the refriger-
ant circuit can cause an abnormal pressure rise or
rupture, resulting in injury.
Do not change the setting of the protection devices. If
the pressure switch, thermal switch, or other protec-
tion device is shorted and operated forcibly, or parts

explosion may occur.
CAUTION
Do not allow children to play on or around the unit to
