according to the installation manual. Be sure to use an exclusive circuit.

Do not connect other electrical appliances to the circuit.

 If the capacity of the power circuit is insufcient or there is incomplete

electricalwork,itcouldresultinareoranelectricshock.

n Do not damage the wires by applying excessive pressure with parts

or screws.

 Damagedwirescouldcausereorelectricshock.

n 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.

n Use the specied wires to connect the indoor and outdoor units

securely and attach the wires rmly to the terminal block connecting

sections so the stress of the wires is not applied to the sections.

not extend the wires, or use intermediate connection.

 Incompleteconnectingandsecuringcouldcausere.

n Do not install the unit in a place where inammable gas may leak.

 Ifgasleaksandaccumulatesintheareaaroundtheunit,itcouldcausean

explosion.

n 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reoranelectricshockduetodefectivecontact,defective

insulation,exceedingthepermissiblecurrent,etc.

Be sure to use the parts provided or specied parts for the installation work.

 Theuseofdefectivepartscouldcauseaninjuryorleakageofwaterdue

toare,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re.Ifloosepartsarefoundonthe

powersupplyplug,replaceit.

n 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reoranelectric

shockduetodust,water,etc.

n When installing, relocating, or servicing the unit, make sure that no

substance other than the specied refrigerant (R410A) enters the

refrigerant circuit.

 Anypresenceofforeignsubstancesuchasaircancauseabnormalpres-

sureriseandmayresultinexplosionorinjury.Theuseofanyrefrigerant

otherthan that specied for thesystem will cause mechanical failure,

systemmalfunction,orunitbreakdown.Intheworstcase,thiscouldlead

toaseriousimpedimenttosecuringproductsafety.

n Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere. If refrigerant

leaks during installation, ventilate the room.

Ifrefrigerantcomesincontactwithare,harmfulgascouldbegenerated.

n Check that the refrigerant gas does not leak after installation has

been completed.

Ifrefrigerantgasleaksindoors,andcomesintocontactwiththeameofa

fanheater,spaceheater,stove,etc.,harmfulsubstanceswillbegenerated.

n 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.

n 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.

n 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.

n Fasten a are nut with a torque wrench as specied in this manual.

 Iffastenedtootight,aarenutmaybreakafteralongperiodandcause

refrigerantleakage.

The unit shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.

n Earth the unit correctly.

 Donotconnecttheearthtoagaspipe,waterpipe,lightningrodortel-

ephoneearth.Defectiveearthingcouldcauseelectricshock.
