and insert the plug securely.
Accumulation of dust, clogging on the socket, or looseness of plugging can cause electric shocks and fire.
Be sure not to reuse existing refrigerant pipes
Conventional refrigerant oil or chlorine contained in the conventional refrigerant which is remaining in the existing refrigerant
pipes can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil of new unit. And 1.6 times higher pressure of R32 refrigerant than
conventional one can cause burst of existing pipe, personal injury or serious accident.
Do not perform brazing work in the airtight room
It can cause lack of oxygen.
Use the prescribed pipes, flare nuts and tools for R32.
Using existing parts (for R22 or R407C) can cause the unit failure and serious accidents due to burst of the refrigerant circuit.
Tighten the flare nut by using double spanners and torque wrench according to prescribed method. Be sure not to tighten
the flare nut too much.
Loose flare connection or damage on the flare part by tightening with excess torque can cause burst or refrigerant leaks
which may result in lack of oxygen.
Do not open the service valves for liquid line and gas line until completed refrigerant piping work, air tightness test and
evacuation.
If the compressor is operated in state of opening service valves before completed connection of refrigerant piping work, you
may incur frost bite or injury from an abrupt refrigerant outflow and air can be sucked into refrigerant circuit, which can
cause burst or personal injury due to anomalously high pressure in the refrigerant.
Do not put the drainage pipe directly into drainage channels where poisonous gases such as sulphide gas can occur.
Poisonous gases will flow into the room through drainage pipe and seriously affect the user's health and safety. It can also
cause the corrosion of the indoor unit and resultant unit failure or refrigerant leak.
Only use prescribed option parts. The installation must be carried out by the qualified installer.
If you install the system by yourself, it can cause serious trouble such as water leaks, electric shocks, fire.
Do not perform any change of protective device itself or its setup condition
The forced operation by short-circuiting protective device of pressure switch and temperature control or the use of non
specified component can cause fire or burst.
Be sure to switch off the power source in the event of installation, inspection or servicing.
If the power source is not shut off, there is a risk of electric shocks, unit failure or personal injury due to the unexpected start
of fan.
Consult the dealer or an expert regarding removal of the unit.
Incorrect installation can cause water leaks, electric shocks or fire.
Stop the compressor before closing valve and disconnecting refrigerant pipes in case of pump down operation.
If disconnecting refrigerant pipes in state of opening service valves before compressor stopping, you may incur frost bite or
injury from an abrupt refrigerant outflow and air can be sucked, which can cause burst or personal injury due to
anomalously high pressure in the refrigerant circuit.
Ensure that no air enters in the refrigerant circuit when the unit is installed and removed.
If air enters in the refrigerant circuit, the pressure in the refrigerant circuit becomes too high, which can cause burst and
personal injury.
Do not run the unit with removed panels or protections
Touching rotating equipments, hot surfaces or high voltage parts can cause personal injury due to entrapment, burn or
electric shocks.
Be sure to fix up the service panels.
Incorrect fixing can cause electric shocks or fire due to intrusion of dust or water.
Do not perform any repairs or modifications by yourself. Consult the dealer if the unit requires repair.
If you repair or modify the unit, it can cause water leaks, electric shocks or fire.
Notabilia as a unit designed for R32
Do not use any refrigerant other than R32. R32 will rise to pressure about 1.6 times higher than that of a conventional refrigerant.
A unit designed for R32 has adopted a different size outdoor unit service valve charge port and a different size check joint provided in the unit to
prevent the charging of a wrong refrigerant by mistake. The processed dimension of the flared part of a refrigerant pipe and a flare nut's parallel
side measurement have also been altered to raise strength against pressure. Accordingly, you are required to arrange dedicated R32 tools listed
in the table on the right before installing or servicing this unit.
Do not use a charge cylinder. The use of a charge cylinder will cause the refrigerant composition to change, which results in performance
degradation.
In charging refrigerant, always take it out from a cylinder in the liquid phase.
All indoor units must be models designed exclusively for R32. Please check connectable indoor unit models in a catalog, etc.
