Safety Considerations
[Place of Installation]
• Make sure that the air conditioner is located in a
sufficiently ventilated place not surrounded by
obstacles.
• Do not use the air conditioner in the following places.
a. Places with a mist of mineral oil, such as cutting oil.
b. Locations such as coastal areas where there is a lot of
salt in the air.
c. Locations such as hot springs resorts where there is a
lot of sulfur in the air.
d. Locations such as factories where the power voltage
varies a lot.
e. In cars, boats, and other vehicles.
f. Locations such as kitchens where oil may splatter or
there is steam in the air.
g. Locations where equipment that produces
electromagnetic waves is found.
h. Places with an acid or alkaline mist.
i. Places where fallen leaves are accumulated or weeds
grow close together.
• Take snow protection measures.
Contact your local dealer for the details of snow protection
measures, such as the use of a snow protection hood.
[Electrical Work]
• Do not attempt to conduct electrical work or
grounding work unless you are licensed to do so.
Consult with your local dealer for electrical work and
grounding work.
• Use a dedicated circuit for the air conditioner.
[Pay Attention to Operating Sound]
• Be sure to use the following places.
a. Places that can sufficiently withstand the weight of the
air conditioner and suppress the operating sound and
vibration of the air conditioner.
b. Places where warm air from the air outlet of the outdoor
unit or the operating sound of the outdoor unit does not
annoy neighbors.
• Make sure that there are no obstacles close to the
outdoor unit.
Obstacles close to the outdoor unit may drop the
performance of the outdoor unit or an increase in the
operating sound of the outdoor unit.
• Consult your local dealer if the air conditioner in
operation generates unusual noise.
[Drainage through Drainpipe]
• Make sure that the drainpipe is installed properly to
drain water.
If no water is discharged from the drainpipe while the air
conditioner is cooling operation, the drainpipe may be
clogged with dust or dirt and water leakage from the indoor
units may result.
Stop operating the air conditioner and consult your local
dealer.
