INSTALLATION LOCATION

We recommend that this wired remote controller be installed properly by qualified installation technicians in accordance with the Installation Instructions provided with the unit.

• Do not install this wired remote controller where there are fumes or flammable gases, or in an extremely humid space such as a greenhouse.

Do not install the wired remote controller where excessively high heat-generating objects are placed.

Avoid:

To protect the air conditioner from heavy corrosion, avoid installing the outdoor unit where salty sea water can splash directly onto it or in sulphurous air near a spa.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

1.All wiring must conform to the local electrical codes. Consult your dealer or a qualified electrician for details.

2.Each unit must be properly grounded with a ground (or earth) wire or through the supply wiring.

3.Wiring must be done by a qualified electrician.

NOTE

Pull off the power plug from a receptacle, or switch off the breaker, or switch off the power disconnecting mean to isolate the air conditioner from the main power supply when not in use for a long time.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read this Instruction Manual carefully before using this air conditioner. If you still have any difficulties or problems, consult your dealer for help.

This air conditioner is designed to give you comfortable room conditions. Use this only for its intended purpose as described in this Instruction Manual.

Confirm to authorized dealer or specialist on usage of specified refrigerant type.

Using of refrigerant other than the specified type may cause product damage, burst and injury etc.

Never touch the unit with wet hands.

Never use or store gasoline or other flammable vapor or liquid near the air conditioner — it is very dangerous.

Do not use this appliance in a potentially explosive atmosphere.

This air conditioner has no ventilator for intaking fresh air from outdoors. You must open doors or windows frequently when you use gas or oil heating appliances in the same room, which consume a lot of oxygen from the air. Otherwise there is a risk of suffocation in an extreme case.

Do not swallow the battery.

After removing the battery from remote controller, keep it away from the reach of children. The battery can cause death by suffocation if swallowed.

To prevent possible hazards from insulation failure, the unit must be grounded.

Do not clean inside the indoor and outdoor units by users. Engage authorized dealer or specialist for cleaning.

In case of malfunction of this appliance, do not repair by yourself. Contact to the sales dealer or service dealer for a repair.

Refrigerant gas leakage may cause fire.

For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and

also to disconnect the power before cleaning.

Pull off the power plug from a receptacle, or switch off the breaker, or switch off the power disconnecting mean to isolate the air conditioner from the main power supply in case of emergency.

CAUTION

Do not turn the air conditioner on and off from the power mains switch. Use the ON/OFF operation button.

Do not stick anything into the air outlet of the outdoor unit. This is dangerous because the fan is rotating at high

speed.

• Do not touch the air inlet or the sharp aluminum fins of the outdoor unit. You may get injured.

Keep the fire alarm and the air outlet at least 1.5m away from the unit.

Do not let children play with the air conditioner.

Do not cool or heat the room too much if babies or invalids are present.

• Do not sit or step on the unit. You may fall down accidentally.

• Do not stick any object into the FAN CASE.

You may be injured and the unit may be damaged.

NOTICE

Panasonic R410A service manual Installation Location

R410A specifications

Panasonic R410A is a refrigerant that has gained significant popularity in the air conditioning and refrigeration industry due to its favorable environmental properties and performance characteristics. Specifically designed to replace the harmful R22 refrigerant, which is being phased out due to its ozone-depleting potential, R410A offers a more eco-friendly alternative without compromising on efficiency or power.

One of the main features of R410A is its high energy efficiency. It operates at a higher pressure than R22, resulting in better heat transfer capabilities. This increased efficiency translates to lower energy consumption, making units using R410A more cost-effective in the long run. Additionally, R410A is known for its ability to provide excellent cooling performance even in high-temperature environments, making it suitable for a variety of applications, from residential air conditioning systems to commercial refrigeration units.

In terms of composition, R410A is a blend of two hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), namely R32 and R125. This combination not only minimizes ozone depletion potential (ODP) but also reduces global warming potential (GWP) compared to older refrigerants. Panasonic has emphasized the importance of innovative technologies in its products, and R410A aligns perfectly with the company's commitment to developing sustainable solutions.

Panasonic also integrates advanced technologies to optimize the performance of R410A systems. For example, variable speed compressors, known as inverter technology, enhance system efficiency by adjusting the compressor's speed according to the cooling demand. This ensures that energy is only consumed when needed, further reducing operational costs.

Furthermore, R410A has a wide range of applications, including air conditioning systems, heat pumps, and chillers. Its versatility makes it a popular choice among manufacturers and consumers alike. The refrigerant is also compatible with existing R22 equipment, although specific retrofit procedures must be followed to ensure peak performance and reliability.

In conclusion, Panasonic R410A stands out as an innovative refrigerant choice in the HVAC industry, offering a combination of energy efficiency, environmentally friendly properties, and advanced technologies. As regulatory frameworks continue to tighten on greenhouse gas emissions, R410A and similar refrigerants are expected to play a crucial role in shaping a more sustainable future for air conditioning and refrigeration. Its high performance and lower environmental impact solidify its position as a leading refrigerant in contemporary cooling solutions.
