Safety Precautions
•ReadtheseSafetyPrecautionscarefullytoensurecorrectinstallation.
•ThismanualclassiestheprecautionsintoDANGER,WARNINGandCAUTION.Besuretofollowalltheprecau-
tionsbelow:theyareallimportantforensuringsafety.
DANGER ..........
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING ........
Failure to follow any of WARNING is likely to result in such grave consequences as death or serious injury.
CAUTION .........Failure to follow any of CAUTION may in some cases result in grave consequences.
•Thefollowingsafetysymbolsareusedthroughoutthismanual:
Besuretoobservethisinstruction. Besuretoestablishagroundconnection. Neverattempt.
•Aftercompletinginstallation,testtheunittocheckforinstallationerrors.Givetheuseradequateinstructionscon-
cerningtheuseandcleaningoftheunitaccordingtotheOperationManual.
DANGER
•Refrigerantgasisheavierthanairandreplacesoxygen.Amassiveleakcouldleadtooxygendepletion,especially
inbasements,andanasphyxiationhazardcouldoccurleadingtoseriousinjuryordeath.
•Iftherefrigerantgasleaksduringinstallation,ventilatetheareaimmediately.

WARNING
•Installationshallbelefttotheauthorizeddealeroranothertrainedprofessional.
Improperinstallationmaycausewaterleakage,electricalshock,re,orequipmentdamage.
•Installtheairconditioneraccordingtotheinstructionsgiveninthismanual.
Incompleteinstallationmaycausewaterleakage,electricalshock,reorequipmentdamage.
•Besuretousethesuppliedorexactspeciedinstallationparts.
Useofotherpartsmaycausetheunittocometofall,waterleakage,electricalshock,reorequipmentdamage.
•Installtheairconditioneronasolidbasethatislevelandcansupporttheweightoftheunit.
Aninadequatebaseorincompleteinstallationmaycauseinjuryorequipmentdamageintheeventtheunitfallsoffthebaseorcomesloose.
•Electricalworkshallbecarriedoutinaccordancewiththeinstallationmanualandthenational,stateandlocal
electricalwiringcodes.
Insufcientcapacityorincompleteelectricalworkmaycauseelectricalshock,reorequipmentdamage.
•Besuretouseadedicatedpowercircuit.Neveruseapowersupplysharedbyanotherappliance.
Followallappropriateelectricalcodes.
•Forwiring,useawireorcablelongenoughtocovertheentiredistancewithnosplicesifpossible.Donotusean

(Failuretodosomaycauseabnormalheat,electricshock,reorequipmentdamage.)
•Usethespeciedtypesofwiresforelectricalconnectionsbetweentheindoorandoutdoorunits.Followallstate
andlocalelectricalcodes.
Firmlyclamptheinter-unitwiresotheirterminalsreceivenoexternalstresses.Incompleteconnectionsorclampingmaycauseterminal
