other purposes other than comfort cooling or heating.
Do not use the unit for cooling precision instruments,
food, plants, animals or works of art.
• Do not place items under the indoor unit it could result
in damage by condensates that may form if the humidity
is above 80% or if the drain outlet gets blocked.
• Before cleaning, stop the operation of the unit by
turning the power off or by pulling the supply cord out
from its receptacle. Otherwise, an electric shock and
injury could result.
• Do not wash the air conditioner or heat pump with
excessive water. An electric shock or fire could result.
• Avoid placing the controller in a spot splashed with
water. Water entering the controller could result in an
electric shock or damage the internal electronic parts.
• Do not operate the air conditioner or heat pump when
using a room fumigation type of insecticide. Failure to
observe this could result in the chemicals to be
deposited in the unit and can endanger the health of
those who are hypersensitive to chemicals.
• Do not disconnect the power immediately after
stopping operation. Stop the operation first by using
remote controller prior to disconnecting the power.

• Incorrect cleaning of the inside of the air conditioner
or heat pump could result in the plastics parts break
resulting in water leakage or electric shock.
• Do not touch the air inlet or aluminum fin of the air
conditioner or heat pump as they can cut and could
result in injury.
• Do not place objects in direct proximity of the outdoor
unit. 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, animals
result in the unit malfunctioning, and could result in
smoke or fire when they make contact with electrical
parts.
