SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION

Do not operate the unit at low outside temperature (less than 14°F) in the cooling mode.

In the cooling mode, if the unit is operated at low outside temperature (less than 14°F), water con- densed in the air conditioner may drop and wet or damage furniture, etc.

Do not use the unit for special purposes.

Do not use this air conditioner to preserve precision devices, food, animals, plants and art objects.

This may cause deterioration of quality, etc.

Do not put a stove, etc. where they are exposed to direct airflow.

This may cause imperfect combustion.

When the unit is to be cleaned, switch it off and turn off the breaker.

• Since the fan rotates at high speed during operation, this may cause an injury.

When the unit is not going to be used for a long time, turn off the breaker.

Otherwise, dirt may collect and this may cause a fire.

Replace the 2 batteries of the remote controller with new ones of same type.

Using an old battery together with a new one may result in heat generation, leakage or an explosion.

If liquid from the batteries gets onto your skin or clothes, wash it well with clean water.

If liquid from the batteries gets into your eyes, wash them well with clean water and consult a doctor at once.

Ventilate well in using the unit with a stove, etc.

An oxygen shortage may occur.

Do not operate switches with wet hands.

This may cause an electric shock.

Do not clean the air conditioner with water or put a vase or glass on it.

Water may enter the unit and degrade the insulation. This may cause an electric shock.

Do not step or put anything on the indoor/outdoor unit.

• This may cause an injury, etc. if you or something falls down.

For installation

WARNING

Consult your dealer for installation of the air conditioner. Since special techniques and work are required, installation should not be done by the customer. If this is done incorrecty, it may cause a fire, an electric shock, injury or water leaking.

Do not install the unit where flammable gas could leak.

If gas leaks and collects around the unit, it may cause an explosion.

CAUTION

Ground the unit.

• Do not connect the ground to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod or the ground of a telephone. If the grounding is incorrect, it may cause an electric shock.

Install a Ground Fault Interrupt (GFI) circuit breaker depending on the place where the air conditioner is to be installed (humid places, etc.).

If the Ground Fault Interrupt (GFI) circuit breaker is not installed, it may cause an electric shock.

Drain should be fully drained.

If the drainage route is incomplete, water may drop from the unit. This may wet and damage the furniture.
