This symbol indicates that ignoring instructions may cause death or serious
injury.
WARNING
This symbol indicates that ignoring instructions may cause moderate injury
to your person, or damage to your unit or other property.
CAUTION
This symbol indicates that you must never perform the action indicated.
WARNING
Do not modify the length of the power supply cord or use an extension cord to power the unit.
Do not share the electrical outlet with other appliances. Improper or insufficient power supply
can cause fire or electrical shock.
When connecting refrigerant piping, do not let substances or gases other than the specified
refrigerant enter the unit. The presence of other gases or substances will lower the unit’s capacity,
and can cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle. This can cause explosion and
injury.
Do not allow children to play with the air conditioner. Children must be supervised around the
unit at all times.
1. Installation must be performed by an authorized dealer or specialist. Defective installation can
cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
2. Installation must be performed according to the installation instructions. Improper installation can
cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire.
(In North America,installation must be performed in accordance with the requirement of NEC and
CEC by authorized personnel only.)
3. Contact an authorized service technician for repair or maintenance of this unit.
4. Only use the included accessories, parts, and specified parts for installation. Using non-standard
parts can cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire, and can cause the unit to fail.
5. Install the unit in a firm location that can support the unit’s weight. If the chosen location cannot
support the unit’s weight, or the installation is not done properly, the unit may drop and cause
serious injury and damage.

WARNING
6. For all electrical work, follow all local and national wiring standards, regulations, and the
Installation Manual. You must use an independent circuit and single outlet to supply power. Do
not connect other appliances to the same outlet. Insufficient electrical capacity or defects in
electrical work can cause electrical shock or fire.
7. For all electrical work, use the specified cables. Connect cables tightly, and clamp them securely to
prevent external forces from damaging the terminal. Improper electrical connections can overheat
and cause fire, and may also cause shock.
8. All wiring must be properly arranged to ensure that the control board cover can close properly. If
the control board cover is not closed properly, it can lead to corrosion and cause the connection
points on the terminal to heat up, catch fire, or cause electrical shock.
9. In certain functional environments, such as kitchens, server rooms, etc., the use of specially designed
air-conditioning units is highly recommended.
10. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
11. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced
Physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be
made by children without supervision.
CAUTION
For units that have an auxiliary electric heater, do not install the unit within 1 meter (3 feet) of
any combustible materials.
Do not install the unit in a location that may be exposed to combustible gas leaks. If combustible
gas accumulates around the unit, it may cause fire.
Do not operate your air conditioner in a wet room such as a bathroom or laundry room. Too
much exposure to water can cause electrical components to short circuit.
1. The product must be properly grounded at the time of installation, or electrical shock may occur.
2. Install drainage piping according to the instructions in this manual. Improper drainage may cause
water damage to your home and property.

DO NOT DEFORM PIPE
WHILE CUTTING Flare nut
Be extra careful not to damage, dent, or
deform the pipe while cutting. This will
drastically reduce the heating efficiency of the
unit.

Note on Adding Refrigerant
Some systems require additional charging depending on pipe lengths. The standard pipe length varies
according to local regulations. For example, in North America, the standard pipe length is 7.5m (25’).
In other areas, the standard pipe length is 5m (16‘). The additional refrigerant to be charged can be
calculated using the following formula:
CAUTION
DO NOT mix refrigerant types.
