9-2. Selection of Installation Place WARNINGS • Install the air conditioner where there is sufficient strength to withstand the weight of the unit. If the strength is not sufficient, the unit may fall down resulting in injury. • Install the air conditioner at a position keeping the height by 2.5m or more from the floor. If you insert your hands or others directly into the unit during running of the air conditioner, it is dangerous because you may contact with revolving fan or active electricity.
9-3. Installation of Indoor Unit WARNING Install the air conditioner certainly at a place to sufficiently withstand the weight. If the strength is insufficient, the unit may fall down resulting in human injury. Perform a specified installation work to guard against an earthquake. An incomplete installation can cause accidents by the units falling and dropping.
