SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
When Wiring
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE
SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH. ONLY A QUALIFIED,
EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD
ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYSTEM.
• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing
are completed or reconnected and checked.
• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this
system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inad-
equate grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause
overheating at connection points and a possible re
hazard.
When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and
outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees
when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges
or thin aluminum ns on the air conditioner can cut your
ngers.
WARNING
CAUTION
When Installing…
…In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent
“sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to
walls and oors.
…In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a
solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents
water damage and abnormal vibration.
…In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a
metal frame. Provide a suitable air baf e.
…In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher
than drifting snow. Provide snow vents.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
• Ventilate the room well, in the event that refrigerant gas
leaks during the installation. Be careful not to allow contact
of the refrigerant gas with ame as this will cause the
generation of poisonous gas.
• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use the are method for connecting tubing.
• Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the
are and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten
the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.
• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
Depending on the system type, liquid and gas lines may
be either narrow or wide. Therefore, to avoid confusion the
refrigerant tubing for your particular model is speci ed as
either "narrow" or "wide" than as "liquid" or "gas."
When Servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains) before
opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and
wiring.
• Keep your ngers and clothing away from any moving
parts.
• Clean up the site after you nish, remembering to check
that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left inside
the unit being serviced.
• Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing the
refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on contact
with re or heat, can produce dangerously toxic gas.
• Con rm after installation that no refrigerant gas is leaking.
If the gas comes in contact with a burning stove, gas water
heater, electric room heater or other heat source, it can
cause the generation of poisonous gas.
