Daikin FMA50RVMA Operation Manual page 17

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.
• The appliance is not intended for use by unattended young children or infirm persons. Impairment of bodily
functions and harm to health may result.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the unit or its remote controller.
Accidental operation by a child may result in impairment of bodily functions and harm health.
• Avoid impacts to the indoor and outdoor units, or otherwise product damage may result.
• Do not place flammable items, such as spray cans, within 1m of the air outlet.
The spray cans may explode as a result of hot air from the indoor or outdoor units.
• Be careful not to let pets urinate on the air conditioner. Urination on the air conditioner may result in electric shock or fire.
• Do not wash the air conditioner with water, as this may result in electric shock or fire.
• Do not place water containers (vases, etc.) above the unit, as this may result in electric shock or fire
hazards if they should topple over.
• Do not insert the batteries in the wrong polarity (+/-) orientation as this may result in short circuiting, fire, or
battery leakage.
• To avoid oxygen depletion, ensure that the room is adequately ventilated if equipment such as a burner is
used together with the air conditioner.
• Before cleaning, be sure to stop unit operation and turn off the circuit breaker. Otherwise, an electric shock and injury may result.
• Only connect the air conditioner to the specified power supply circuit. Power supplies other than the one
specified may result in electric shock, overheating and fires.
• Arrange the drain hose to ensure smooth drainage. Imperfect drainage may cause wetting of the building, furniture, etc.
• Do not place objects in direct proximity of the outdoor unit and do not let leaves and other debris
accumulate around the unit. Leaves are a hotbed for small animals which can enter the unit. Once inside
the unit, such animals can cause malfunctions, smoke or fire if they come into contact with electrical parts.
• Do not place objects around the indoor unit.
Doing so may have an adverse influence on the performance, product quality, and life of the air conditioner.
• This appliance is not intended to be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or with lack of operation knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the
appliance use by person responsible for their safety. Keep out of children's reach to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
