SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equipment
can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical components,
and equipment location.
This appliance is not to be used by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervi-
sion or instruction. Children shall be supervised not to play with
the appliance.
Only trained, qualified installers and service mechanics should
install, start up, and service this equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions,
such as cleaning coils. All other operations should be performed
by trained service personnel. Qualified installers and service
technicians are required to have been trained on the following
topics when installing and servicing air-conditioning equipment
with A2L refrigerant such as R-32:
1.
Explosive potential of A2L refrigerants
2.
Potential ignition sources
3.
Safety measures for unventilated and ventilated rooms or
enclosures
4.
Refrigerant detectors
5.
Concept of sealed components and sealed enclosures
according to IEC 60079-15:2010
6.
Correct work procedures for the following:
a. Commissioning
b. Maintenance
c. Repair
d. Decommissioning
e. Disposal
When working on the equipment, observe precautions in the
literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the
equipment.
1.
Follow all safety codes.
2.
Keep quenching cloth and fire extinguisher nearby when
brazing.
3.
Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
4.
Use care in handling, rigging, and setting bulky equipment.
It is important to recognize safety information. This is the
safety-alert symbol
