Warning:
• Do not use refrigerant other than the type indicated in the manuals provided

-
MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATION cannot be held responsible for
malfunctions or accidents resulting from the use of the wrong type of refrigerant.
• Do not install it by yourself (customer).
Incomplete installation could cause injury due to fire, electric shock, the unit
falling or leakage of water. Consult the dealer from whom you purchased the
unit or special installer.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concern-
ing use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
•
Install the unit securely in a place which can bear the weight of the unit.
When installed in an insufficient strong place, the unit could fall causing injured.
• Use the specified wires to connect the indoor and outdoor units securely and
attach the wires firmly to the terminal board connecting sections so the stress
of the wires is not applied to the sections.
Incomplete connecting and fixing could cause fire.
• Do not use intermediate connection of the power cord or the extension cord
and do not connect many devices to one AC outlet.
It could cause a fire or an electric shock due to defective contact, defective
insulation, exceeding the permissible current, etc.
• Check that the refrigerant gas does not leak after installation has completed.
• Perform the installation securely referring to the installation manual.
Incomplete installation could cause a personal injury due to fire, electric shock,
the unit falling or leakage of water.
• Perform electrical work according to the installation manual and be sure to
use an exclusive circuit.
If the capacity of the power circuit is insufficient or there is incomplete elec-
trical work, it could result in a fire or an electric shock.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• Attach the electrical part cover to the indoor unit and the service panel to the
outdoor unit securely.
If the electrical part cover in the indoor unit and/or the service panel in the
outdoor unit are not attached securely, it could result in a fire or an electric
shock due to dust, water, etc.
• Be sure to use the part provided or specified parts for the installation work.
The use of defective parts could cause an injury or leakage of water due to a
fire, an electric shock, the unit falling, etc.
•
Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during operation.
If the refrigerant comes in contact with a flame, poisonous gases will be released.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appli-
ance.
Caution:
• Perform grounding.
Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe, water pipe arrester or telephone
ground wire. Defective grounding could cause an electric shock.
• Do not install the unit in a place where an inflammable gas leaks.
If gas leaks and accumulates in the area surrounding the unit, it could cause
an explosion.
• Install a ground leakage breaker depending on the installation place (where it
is humid).
If a ground leakage breaker is not installed, it could cause an electric shock.
• Perform the drainage/piping work securely according to the installation
manual.
If there is a defect in the drainage/piping work, water could drop from the unit
and household goods could be wet and damaged.
• Fasten a flare nut with a torque wrench as specified in this manual.
When fastened too tight, a flare nut may broken after a long period and cause
a leakage of refrigerant.
2. Selecting the installation location
2.1. Indoor unit
• Where airflow is not blocked.
• Where cool air spreads over the entire room.
• Where it is not exposed to direct sunshine.
• At a distance 1 m or more away from your TV and radio (to prevent picture from
being distorted or noise from being generated).
• In a place as far away as possible from fluorescent and incandescent lights (so the
infrared remote control can operate the air conditioner normally).
• Where the air filter can be removed and replaced easily.
Warning:
Mount the indoor unit into a ceiling strong enough to withstand the weight of
the unit.
Note: The phrase “Wired remote controller” in this installation manual refers only to the PAR-21MAA. If you need any information for THE PAR-30MAA, please refer to
either the installation manual or initial setting manual which are included in PAR-30MAA box.
