DANGER
• Do not install the unit in an area where flammable mate-
rials are present due to risk of explosion resulting in
serious injury or death.
• Any abnormalities in the operation of the air conditioner
such as smoke or fire could result in severe injury or death.
Turn off the power and contact your dealer immediately for
instructions.
• Refrigerant gas may product toxic gas if it comes in con-
tact with fire such a from a fan, heater, stove, or cooking
device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury
or death.
• For refrigerant leakage, consult your dealer.
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen. A
massive leak could lead to oxygen depletion, especially in
basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur leading
to serious injury or death.
• If equipment utilizing a burner is used in the same room
as the air conditioner, there is the danger of oxygen defi-
ciency which could lead to an asphyxiation hazard
resulting in serious injury or death.
Be sure to ventilate the room sufficiently to avoid this hazard.
• Safely dispose of the packing materials.
Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden
parts, may cause stabs or other injuries.
Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that
children will not play with them. Children playing with plastic
bags face the danger of death by suffocation.

WARNING
• It is not good for your health to expose your body to the
air flow for a long time.
• Ask your dealer for installation of the air conditioner.
Incomplete installation performed by yourself may result in a
water leakage, electric shock, and fire.
• Ask your dealer for improvement, repair, and maintenance.
Incomplete improvement, repair, and maintenance may
result in a water leakage, electric shock, and fire.
• Improper installation or attachment of equipment or
accessories could result in electric shock, short-circuit,
leaks, fire or other damage to the equipment. Be sure
only to use accessories made by Daikin which are spe-
cifically designed for use with the equipment and have
them installed by a professional.
• Ask your dealer to move and reinstall the air conditioner.
Incomplete installation may result in a water leakage, electric
shock, and fire.
• Never let the indoor unit or the remote controller get wet.
It may cause an electric shock or a fire.
• Never use flammable spray such as hair spray, lacquer
or paint near the unit.
It may cause a fire.
• Never replace a fuse with that of wrong ampere ratings
or other wires when a fuse blows out.
Use of wire or copper wire may cause the unit to break down
or cause a fire.
• Never remove the fan guard of the unit.
A fan rotating at high speed without the fan guard is very dan-
gerous.

they could be injured.
• Placing a flower vase or other containers with water or
other liquids on the unit could result in a shock hazard or
fire if a spill occurs.
• Do not put a finger or other objects into the air inlet or air
outlet.
The fan is rotating at high speed and will cause injury.
• The heat exchanger fins are sharp enough to cut.
To avoid injury wear gloves or cover the fins while working
around them.
• Do not touch the air outlet or the horizontal flaps while
the swing flap is in operation as fingers may get caught
and injured.
• Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker.
Failure to install an earth leakage breaker may result in elec-
tric shocks, or fire.

Do not remove the front panel because some parts inside are
dangerous to touch. In addition, some parts may be damaged.
For checking and adjusting internal parts, contact your dealer.
