DANGER
• Do not install the unit in an area where fl am-
mable materials are present due to risk of
explosion resulting in serious injury or death.
• Any abnormalities in the operation of the air
conditioner or heat pump such as smoke or
fi re, could result in severe injury or death.
Turn off the power and contact your dealer
immediately.
• Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it
come in contact with fi re, such as from a fan,
heater, stove, or cooking device. Exposure to
this gas could cause severe injury or death.
• Consult your local dealer regarding modifi ca-
tion, repair and maintenance of the air condi-
tioner.
Improper workmanship may result in water
leakage, electric shocks or fi re hazards.
• For refrigerant leakage, consult your dealer.
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and re-
places oxygen. A massive leak could lead to
oxygen depletion, especially in basements,
and an asphyxiation hazard could occur lead-
ing to serious injury or death.
English
• If equipment utilizing a burner is used in the
same room as the air conditioner or heat
pump, there is the danger of oxygen defi cien-
cy which could lead to an asphyxiation haz-
ard resulting in serious injury or death. Be
sure to ventilate the room suffi ciently 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.
• Do not install the air conditioner at any place
where there is a danger of fl ammable gas
leakage.
In the event of a gas leakage, build-up of gas
near the air conditioner may result in fi re haz-
ards.
WARNING
• Contact your dealer for repair and mainte-
nance. Improper repair and maintenance may
result in water leakage, electric shock, and
fi re. Only use accessories made by Daikin
that are specifi cally designed for use with the
equipment and have them installed by a pro-
fessional.
• Contact your dealer to move and reinstall the
air conditioner or heat pump. Incomplete
installation may result in water leakage, elec-
tric shock, and fi re.
• Never let the indoor unit or the remote con-
troller get wet. Water can cause an electric
shock or a fi re.
• Never use fl ammable spray such as hair
spray, lacquer, or paint near the unit. Flam-
mable spray may cause a fi re.
• When a fuse blows out, never replace it with
one of incorrect ampere ratings or different
wires. Always replace any blown fuse with a
fuse of the same specifi cation.
• Never remove the fan guard of the unit. A fan
rotating at high speed without the fan guard
is very dangerous.
• Never inspect or service the unit by yourself.
Contact a qualifi ed service person to perform
this work.
