WARNING and
CAUTION. Both
categories contain important safety-related
information, and their directions must be followed
without fail.
• Do not get the control unit wet.
Take steps to avoid getting the control unit wet. Failure
to heed this warning may result in electric shocks, a fire
and/or trouble.
• If trouble (such as the smell of burning) has
occurred, stop operation and turn off the main
power switch.
Allowing operation to continue while the trouble has not
been remedied may cause electric shocks, a fire and/or
trouble. Consult your dealer.
After reading these instructions, be sure to keep them in
a safe place where they can be referred to at any time
by the user. Also be sure that they are handed over to a
new user.
„Installation precautions
WARNING

CAUTION
Ask your dealer or a contractor with specialized
experience to install the air conditioner. Electric shocks
and/or a fire may result if you attempt to install the air
conditioner yourself and the air conditioner ends up not
being installed perfectly.
• Use only with the authorized air conditioner units.
Be absolutely sure to use only the authorized air
conditioner units designated by the manufacturer.
Also, ask a contractor with specialized experience to
install them. Electric shocks and/or a fire may result if
you attempt to install the parts yourself and the parts
end up not being installed perfectly.
• Do not drop the product or subject it to strong
impact.
Failure to heed this caution may cause malfunctioning.
• Use only the fuses with the correct amperage.
Use of pieces of wire including copper wiring may cause
a fire and/or trouble.
„Relocation and repair precautions
WARNING
• Do not undertake any repair work yourself.
Under no circumstances must you attempt to do any
repair work yourself.
Instead, consult your dealer or a contractor with
specialized experience. Electric shocks and/or a fire
may result if you attempt to do repair work yourself and
this work ends up not being carried out perfectly.
• Consult your dealer when the control unit is to be
relocated and re-installed.
CAUTION
• Do not install the remote controller unit where
there are high levels of moisture, oils, grease or
vibration.
Failure to heed this caution may cause trouble.
• Do not install the remote controller unit in direct
sunlight or near a heat source.
Failure to heed this caution may cause malfunctioning.
• Do not install the remote controller unit where
there are sources of noise.
Failure to heed this caution may cause unintended
