Installing, staring up, and servicing air-conditioning equipment can be hazardous due to system pressures, electrical components, and equipment location

(roofs, elevated structures, etc.).

Only trained, qualiﬁ ed installers and service mechanics should install, start-up, and service this equipment.

Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance functions such as replacing ﬁ lters. All other operations should be performed by trained service

personnel.

When working on the equipment, observe precautions in the literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the equipment.

Follow all safety codes, Wear safety glasses and work gloves. Keep quenching cloth and ﬁ re extinguisher nearby when brazing. Use care in handling,

rigging, and setting bulky equipment.

Read these instructions thoroughly and follow all warnings or cautions included in literature and attached to the unit. Consult local building codes and

National Electrical Code (NEC) for special requirements. Recognize safety information. This is the safety-alert symbol å . When you see this symbol on

the unit and in instructions or manuals, be alert to the potential for personal injury. Understand these signal words: DANGER, WARNING, and CAUTION.

These words are used with the safety-alert symbol.

DANGER identiﬁ es the most serious hazards which will result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING signiﬁ es hazards which could result in personal

injury or death. CAUTION is used to identify unsafe practices which would result in minor personal injury or product and property damage. NOTE is used to

highlight suggestions which will result in enhanced installation, reliability, or operation.

• Before installation, please read these precautions for safety carefully.

• Be sure to follow the precautions provided here to avoid safety risks. The symbols and their meanings are shown below.

CAUTION

•

THIS AIR CONDITIONER USES THE HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A), WHICH DOES NOT DESTROY THE OZONE LAYER.

R410A refrigerant is affected by impurities such as water and oils because the pressure of R410A refrigerant is approx. 1.6 times of refrigerant R22.

ALSO NEW OILS ARE USED WITH R410A, THUS ALWAYS USE NEW REFRIGERANT PIPING AND DO NOT ALLOW MOISTURE OR DUST TO

ENTER THE SYSTEM.

To avoid mixing refrigerant and refrigerant machine oil, the sizes of charging port on the main unit is different than those used on R22 machines and

different tools will be required.

•

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.

Do not bury more than 36 in. (914 mm) of refrigerant pipe in the ground. If any section of pipe is buried, there must be a 6 in. (152 mm) vertical rise to

the valve connections on the outdoor units. If more than the recommended length is buried, refrigerant may migrate to the cooler buried section during

extended periods of system shutdown. This causes refrigerant slugging and could possibly damage the compressor at start-up.

DANGER

• FOR USE BY QUALIFIED PERSONS ONLY.

• TURN OFF MAIN POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. MAKE SURE ALL POWER SWITCHES ARE OFF.

FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.

• CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE CORRECTLY. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS CONNECTED WRONGLY, ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE

DAMAGED.

• CHECK THAT THE EARTH GROUND WIRE IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE INSTALLATION.

• DO NOT INSTALL THE UNIT NEAR CONCENTRATIONS OF COMBUSTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

• TO PREVENT OVERHEATING THE INDOOR UNIT AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE THE UNIT WELL AWAY (MORE THAN 2 M) FROM

HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEATERS, FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.

• WHEN RELOCATING THE AIR CONDITIONER, BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO MIX THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R410A) WITH ANY OTHER

GASEOUS BODY INTO THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS MIXED WITH THE REFRIGERANT, THE GAS PRESSURE

IN THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE BECOMES ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT RESULTINGLY CAUSES BURST OF THE PIPE AND INJURIES ON

PERSONS.

• IN THE EVENT OF REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE DURING INSTALLATION, ALLOW FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM IMMEDIATELY. IF THE

REFRIGERANT GAS IS HEATED BY FIRE OR OTHER MEAN, IT GENERATES POISONOUS GAS.
