present.
2. Do not install the product where it could be exposed to sea wind (salty wind) directly. As a result, the
product is corroded. Corrosion, particularly on the condenser and evaporator fins, could cause product
malfunction or inefficient performance.
3. If outdoor or indoor unit is installed close to the seaside, it should avoid direct exposure to the sea wind.
Otherwise it needs additional corrosion resistance treatment on the heat exchanger.
