Check of Density Limit
The room in which the air conditioner is to be
installed requires a design that in the event of refrig-
erant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed a set
limit.
The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the air condition-
er, is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of ammonia,
and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect the ozone
layer. However, since it contains more than air, it poses the
risk of suffocation if its density should rise excessively. Suf-
focation from leakage of refrigerant is almost non-existent.
With the recent increase in the number of high density
buildings, however, the installation of multi air conditioner
systems is on the increase because of the need for effec-
tive use of floor space, individual control, energy conserva-
tion by curtailing heat and carrying power, etc.
Most importantly, the multi air conditioner system is able
to replenish a large amount of refrigerant compared to
conventional individual air conditioners. If a single unit of
the multi air conditioner system is to be installed in a
small room, select a suitable model and installation pro-
cedure so that if the refrigerant accidentally leaks out, its
density does not reach the limit (and in the event of an
emergency, measures can be made before injury can
occur).
ASHRAE and the International Mechanical Code of the
ICC as well as CSA provide guidance and define safe-
guards related to the use of refrigerants, all of which define
a Refrigerant Concentration Level (RCL) of 25 pounds
per 1,000 cubic feet for R410A refrigerant.
For additional guidance and precautions related to
refrigerant safety, please refer to the following documents:

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 fingers and clothing away from any moving
parts.
Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check
that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left
inside the unit being serviced.
•
•
Do not touch the air inlet or the
sharp aluminum fins of the
outdoor unit. You may get injured.
• Ventilate any enclosed areas when
installing or testing the refrigeration
system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on
contact with fire or heat, can produce
dangerously toxic gas.
Confirm 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.
WARNING
• Do not clean inside the indoor and
outdoor units by users. Engage
authorized dealer or specialist for
cleaning.
• In case of malfunction of this
appliance, do not repair by yourself.
Contact to the sales dealer or service
dealer for a repair.

NOTICE
• This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
• This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
• FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance, follow the attached installation instructions.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
