1-1. THE FOLLOWING SHOULD ALWAYS BE OBSERVED FOR SAFETY
• Be sure to read "THE FOLLOWING
SHOULD ALWAYS
BE OBSERVED
FOR SAFETY" before installing the air conditioner.
• Be sure to observe the warnings and cautions specified
here as they include important items related to safety.
• After reading this manual, be sure to keep it together with the OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
for future reference.
Please report to your supply authority or obtain their consent before connecting this equipment to the power supply system.
[] Do not install the unit by yourself
(user).
Incomplete
installation
could cause fire or electric shock, injury due to the unit fall-
ing, or leakage of water. Consult the dealer from whom you purchased the unit or
a qualified installer.
[] Perform
the installation
securely
referring to the installation
manual.
Incomplete
installation
could cause fire or electric shock, injury due to the unit fall-
ing, or leakage of water.
[] Install the unit securely
in a place which can bear the weight of the unit.
If the installation
location cannot bear the weight of the unit, the unit could fall
causing injury.
[] Perform
electrical work according
to the installation
manual and be sure to use
an exclusive
circuit.
Do not connect
other electrical
appliances to the circuit.
If the capacity of the power circuit is insufficient or there is incomplete
electrical
work, it could result in a fire or an electric shock.
[] Ground the unit correctly.
Do not conned
the ground to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod or telephone
ground. Defective grounding
could cause electric shock.
[] Do not damage
the wires
by applying
excessive
pressure
with parts
or
SCreWS.
Damaged wires could cause fire.
[] Be sure to cut off the main power in case of setting
up the indoor P.C. board
or wiring works.
Failure to do so could cause electric shock.
[] Use the specified
wires to connect the indoor and outdoor
units
securely
and
attach the wires firmly
to the terminal block connecting
sections
so the stress
of the wires is not applied to the sections.
Incomplete
connecting and securing could cause fire.
[] Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable
gas may leak.
If gas leaks and accumulates
in the area around the unit, it could cause an explo-
sion.
[] Do not use intermediate
connection
of the power cord or the extension
cord
and do not connect many devices to one AC outlet.
It could cause a fire or an electric shock due to defective contact, defective insula-
tion, exceeding the permissible
current, etc.
[] Be sure to use the parts provided or specified parts for the installation work.
The use of defective parts could cause an injury or leakage of water due to a fire, an
electric shock, the unit falling, etc.
[] When plugging the power supply
plug into the outlet, make sure that there is
no dust, clogging,
or loose parts in both the outlet and the plug. Make sure
that the power supply
plug is pushed completely
into the outlet.
If there is dust, clogging, or loose parts on the power supply plug or the outlet, it could
cause electric shock or fire. If loose parts are found on the power supply plug, replace it.
[] Attach the electrical cover to the indoor unit and the service panel to the outdoor
unit securely.
If the electrical cover of the indoor unit and/or the service panel of the outdoor unit are
not attached securely, it could result in a fire or an electric shock due to dust, water, etc.
[] When installing or relocating
the unit, make sure that no substance
other than
the specified
refrigerant
(R410A) enters the refrigerant circuit.
Any presence of foreign substance such as air can cause abnormal pressure rise
or an explosion.
[] Do not discharge
the refrigerant
into the atmosphere.
If refrigerant
leaks during
installation,
ventilate the room.
If refrigerant comes in contact with a fire, harmful gas could be generated.
[] Check that the refrigerant
gas does not leak after installation
has been com-
pleted.
If refrigerant gas leaks indoors, and comes into contact with the flame of a fan
heater, space heater, stove, etc., harmful substances will be generated.
[] Use appropriate
tools and piping materials for installation.
The pressure of R410A is 1.6 times more than R22. Not using appropriate
tools or
materials and incomplete installation could cause the pipes to burst or injury.
[] When pumping down the refrigerant,
stop the compressor
before disconnecting
the refrigerant
pipes.
If the refrigerant
pipes are disconnected
while the compressor
is running and the
stop valve is open, air could be drawn in and the pressure in the refrigeration
cycle
could become abnormally
high. This could cause the pipes to burst or injury.
[] When installing the unit, securely
connect
the refrigerant
pipes before starting
the compressor.
If the compressor
is started before the refrigerant pipes are connected
and when
the stop valve is open, air could be drawn in and the pressure in the refrigeration
cycle could become abnormally
high. This could cause the pipes to burst or injury.
[] Fasten a flare nut with a torque wrench as specified
in this manual.
If fastened too tight, a flare nut may break after a long period and cause refrigerant
leakage.
[] The unit shall be installed in accordance
with national wiring regulations.
[] Install
a Ground
Fault Interrupt
(GFI) circuit breaker
depending
on the instal-
lation
place.
If the Ground Fault Interrupt (GFI) circuit breaker is not installed, it could cause
electric shock.
[] Perform
the drainage/piping
work
securely
according
to the installation
manual.
If there is defect in the drainage/piping
work, water could drop from the unit, soak-
ing and damaging household
goods.
[] Do not touch
the air inlet or the aluminum
fins of the outdoor
unit.
This could cause injury.
[] Do not instamlthe outdoor
unit where smaml animals
may live.
If small animals enter and touch the electric parts inside the unit, it could cause a
malfunction,
smoke emission, or fire. Also, advise user to keep the area around
the unit clean.
