WARNING • Beware of fire in case of refrigerant leakage. If the air conditioner is not operating correctly, i.e. not generating cool or warm air, refrigerant leakage could be the cause. Consult your dealer for assistance. The refrigerant within the air conditioner is safe and normally does not leak. However, in the event of a leakage, contact with a naked burner, heater or cooker may result in generation of noxious gas. Do not use the air conditioner until a qualified service person confirms that the leakage has been repaired. • Do not attempt to install or repair the air conditioner yourself. Improper workmanship may result in water leakage, electric shock or fire hazards. Please contact your local dealer or qualified personnel for installation and maintenance work. • If the air conditioner is malfunctioning (giving off a burning odour, etc.), turn off power to the unit and contact your local dealer. Continued operation under such circumstances may result in a failure, electric shock or fire hazards. • Be sure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker. Failure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker may result in electric shock or fire. • Be sure to earth the unit. Do not earth the unit to a utility pipe, lightning conductor or telephone earth lead. Imperfect earthing may result in electric shock. CAUTION • Do not use the air conditioner for purposes other than those for which it is intended. Do not use the air conditioner for cooling precision instruments, food, plants, animals or works of art as this may adversely affect the performance, quality and/or longevity of the object concerned. • Do not expose plants or animals directly to the airflow from the unit as this may cause adverse effects. • Do not place appliances that produce naked flames in places exposed to the airflow from the unit as this may impair combustion of the burner. • Do not block the air inlets nor outlets. Impaired airflow may result in insufficient performance or trouble. • Do not sit on the outdoor unit, put things on the unit, or pull the unit. Doing so may cause accidents, such as falling or toppling down, thus resulting in injury, product malfunctioning, or product damage. • Do not place objects that are susceptible to moisture directly beneath the indoor or outdoor units. Under certain conditions, condensation on the main unit or refrigerant pipes, air filter dirt or drain blockage may cause dripping, resulting in fouling or failure of the object concerned. • After prolonged use, check the unit stand and its mounts for damage. If they are left in a damaged condition, the unit may fall and cause injury. • To avoid injury, do not touch the air inlet or aluminium fins of the indoor or outdoor units.
