• Be careful not to expose your body directly to the
outlet air for a long time. It may affect your physical
conditions.
• When using the air conditioner for infants, children,
elderly, bedridden, or disabled people make sure the
room temperature is suitable for those in the room.
• Never insert objects into the unit. Inserting objects
can result in injury due to the high speed rotation of
internal fans.
• Ground the air conditioner without fail. Do not
connect the grounding wire to gas pipe, water pipe,
lightning rod or telephone grounding wire. Incomplete
grounding may cause electric shock.
• If anything is abnormal with the air conditioner (ex. a
burning
smell), stop the operation immediately and turn the
circuit breaker OFF.
The appliance shall be installed in accordance with
•
national wiring regulations. Improper cable connection
can cause the power supply cord, plug and the
electrical outlet to overheat and cause fire.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Use
only the manufacture-specified power cord for
replacement.
• Do not splash or pour water directly on the unit. Water
can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Do not attempt to install/remove/repair the unit by
yourself. Incorrect work will cause electric shock,
water leak, fire etc. Consult your dealer or other
qualified service personnel for the installation/removal/
repair of the unit.
CAUTION
• Open a window or door periodically to ventilate
the room, especially when using gas appliances.
Insufficient ventilation may cause oxygen shortage.

• For safety, turn the circuit breaker off when not using
the unit for an extended period of time.
• Check the outdoor unit mounting rack periodically for
wear and to make sure it is firmly in place.
• Do not put anything on the outdoor unit nor step on

penetrates into the unit, electrical insulations may
deteriorate and cause electric shock.
• Do not block the air inlets nor outlets of the unit. It
may cause insufficient performance or troubles.
• Be sure to stop the operation and turn the circuit
breaker off before performing any maintenance or
cleaning. A fan is rotating inside the unit and you may
get injured.
• Make sure to connect the air conditioner to power
supply of the rated voltage and frequency. Use of a
power supply with improper voltage and frequency
can result in equipment damage and possible fire.
• Do not install the unit in a place where inflammable
gas may leak. It may cause fire.
Install the unit in a place with minimal dust, fumes and
moisture in the air.

stalled, depending on the installation location, to avoid
electrical shock.
