• Install the air conditioner on a foundation strong enough to withstand the weight of the unit.
A foundation of insufficient strength may result in the equipment falling and causing injury.
• Carry out the specified installation work after taking into account strong winds, typhoons or earthquakes.
Failure to do so during installation work may result in the unit falling and causing accidents.
• Make sure that a separate power supply circuit is provided for this unit and that all electrical work is carried
out by qualified personnel according to local laws and regulations and this installation manual.
An insufficient power supply capacity or improper electrical construction may lead to electric shocks or fire.
• Be sure to earth the air conditioner.
Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or telephone earth lead.
Imperfect earthing may result in electric shocks or fire.
A high surge current from lightning or other sources may cause damage to the air conditioner.
• Be sure to install the earth leakage breaker.
Failure to install the earth leakage breaker may result in electric shocks or fire.
• Be sure to switch off the unit before touching any electrical parts.
Touching a live part may result in electric shock.
• Make sure that all wiring is secured, the specified wires are used, and that there is no strain on the terminal
connections or wires.
Improper connections or securing of wires may result in abnormal heat build-up or fire.
• When wiring the power supply and connecting the wiring between the indoor and outdoor units, position the
wires so that the control box lid can be securely fastened.
Improper positioning of the control box lid may result in electric shocks, fire or overheating terminals.
• If refrigerant gas leaks during installation, ventilate the area immediately.
Toxic gas may be produced if the refrigerant comes into contact with fire.
• After completing installation, check for refrigerant gas leakage.
Toxic gas may be produced if the refrigerant gas leaks into the room and comes into contact with a source
of fire, such as a fan heater, stove or cooker.
• Do not touch any refrigerant that leaks out of refrigerant piping joints or connections.
Touching it may cause frostbite.
• Consult your local dealer regarding what to do in case of refrigerant leakage, when the air coditioner is to
be installed in a small room, it is necessary to take proper measures so that the amount of any leaked
refrigerant does not exceed the concentration limit in the event of leakage. Otherwise, this may lead to
an accident due to oxygen depletion.
CAUTION
• While following the instructions in this installation manual, install drain piping to ensure proper drainage and
insulate piping to prevent condensation.
Improper drain piping may result in indoor water leakage and property damage.
• Install the indoor and outdoor units, power cord and connecting wires at least 1 meter away from televisions
or radios to prevent picture interference and noise.
(Depending on the incoming signal strength, a distance of 1 meter may not be sufficient to eliminate noise.)
• Install the indoor unit as far away from fluorescent lamps as possible.
Remote controller (wireless kit) transmitting distance can be shorter than expected in rooms with electronic
fluorescent lamps (inverter or rapid start types).
• In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be
required to take adequate measures.
•
Do not allow children to climb on the outdoor unit and avoid placing objects on the unit.
Injury may result if the unit becomes loose and falls.
•
Make sure to provide for adequate measure in order to prevent that the outdoor unit be used as a
shelter by small animals.
Small animals making contact with electrical parts can cause malfunctions, smoke or fire. Please instruct
the customer to keep the area around the unit clean.
• Install in a machine room that is free of moisture. The unit is designed for indoor use.
• Disposal requirements
Dismantling of the unit, treatment of the refrigerant, of oil and of other parts must be done in
accordance with relevant local and national legislation.
