1 Safety Precautions
• Read the following “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before perform any servicing.
• Electrical work must be installed or serviced by a licensed electrician. Be sure to use the correct rating of the power plug and
• Electrical work must be installed or serviced by a licensed electrician. Be sure to use the correct rating of the power plug and
main circuit for the model installed.
• The caution items stated here must be followed because these important contents are related to safety. The meaning of each
indication used is as below.
Incorrect installation or servicing due to ignoring of the instruction will cause harm or damage, and the seriousness is classified
by the following indications.
Incorrect installation or servicing due to ignoring of the instruction will cause harm or damage, and the seriousness is classified
by the following indications.
The items to be followed are classified by the symbols:
• Carry out test running to confirm that no abnormality occurs after the servicing. Then, explain to user the operation, care and
maintenance as stated in instructions. Please remind the customer to keep the operating instructions for future reference.

When connecting the piping, do not allow air or any substances other than the specified refrigerant to enter the refrigeration
cycle. Otherwise, this may lower the capacity, cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigeration cycle, and possibly result in
explosion and injury.

explosion and injury.
9.
Thickness of copper pipes used must be more than 0.6 mm. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.6 mm.
10. It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10 m.
11. Do not modify the length of the power supply cord or use of the extension cord, and do not share the single outlet with other
electrical appliances. Otherwise, it will cause fire or electrical shock.
1.
The equipment must be earthed. It may cause electrical shock if grounding is not perfect.
2.
Do not install the unit at place where leakage of flammable gas may occur. In case gas leaks and accumulates at surrounding
of the unit, it may cause fire.

3.
Carry out drainage piping as mentioned in installation instructions. If drainage is not perfect, water may enter the room and damage the
furniture.

4.
Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; typically the melting point is 50 - 70°F (30 - 40°C) higher. Please use a high
temperature soldering iron. In case of the soldering iron with temperature control, please set it to 700 ± 20°F (370 ± 10°C).
Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100°F/600°C).
