the user or by personnel authorised to carry out maintenance and repairs.
– Read this manual carefully before using the appliance to ensure its safe operation.
– Periodically check the integrity of the power cable. If the power cable is damaged, it may only be replaced
by the manufacturer or the local distributor who sold the appliance or by authorised maintenance and repair
personnel.
– Installation must be in accordance with the IEC 61000-3-12 standard.
– The installation must be carried out by an authorised dealer or a qualified technician. Incorrect installation
may cause water leakage, electric shock and fire, or cause the appliance to malfunction.
– The installation must be carried out according to the instructions provided. An incorrect installation may
cause water leaks, electric shock or fire.
– Perform the installation using only the supplied accessories and parts specified. The use of non-standard
components may cause water leakage, electric shock or fire and cause the unit to malfunction.
– Perform the installation taking into account any possible natural events such as strong winds, typhoons and
earthquakes. The appliance could fall and be damaged as well as cause damage to property or physical
injury.
– If installing in areas prone to thunderstorms, take measures to protect the appliance from lightning.
– Work on the refrigerant circuit must only be carried out by persons with a valid certification, issued by
an accredited body, certifying their competence to handle refrigerants safely in compliance with the
specifications in force in the sector.
– Use a vacuum pump with a non return valve to evacuate the system. Do not perform an air purge using
refrigerant.
– Use deoxidised phosphorous copper piping for the refrigerant (seamless copper alloy piping and tubing).
Keep the inner and outer surface of the pipes clean and free of contaminants.
– Store the piping indoors and keep both ends of the pipes sealed until it is time to flare or weld.
– Do not use any means other than those recommended by the manufacturer to accelerate the defrosting
process or to clean the unit.
– The appliance must be placed in a room that does not contain any ignition sources (e.g. open flames, gas
appliances or electric heaters).
– Weld the pipes purging with nitrogen to avoid oxidation.
– Keep the interconnection cable away from the copper pipe. The temperature of the refrigerant circuit is
high.
– Note that the refrigerants are odourless.
– Use only the refrigerants indicated in the manual.
– Recharge the refrigerant when it is in the liquid state.
– After installation, verify that there are no refrigerant leaks.
– Do not touch the components of the refrigerant line during or immediately after operation of the appliance.
There is a risk of burns or frostbite.
– Install the connection joints and manifolds referring to the installation manual.
– Install the drainage pipe according to the instructions in this manual. Incorrect draining can cause water
seepage or flooding with possible damage to the home and other property.
– Insulate the piping to avoid condensation.
