DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
To clean the air conditioner or air filter, be sure to stop
operation and turn all power supplies off. Otherwise, an
electric shock and injury may result. In case the unit is
equipped with a refrigerant leakage sensor, turn the power
supply breaker back on immediately after cleaning in order
to maintain detection functionality.

To prevent electric shocks or fire:
▪ Do NOT rinse the unit.
▪ Do NOT operate the unit with wet hands.
▪ Do NOT place any objects containing water on the unit.

After a long use, check the unit stand and fitting for
damage. If damaged, the unit may fall and result in injury.

Do NOT touch the heat exchanger fins. These fins are
sharp and could result in cutting injuries.
NOTICE
When cleaning the heat exchanger, make sure to remove
the switch box and fan motor. Water or detergent might
deteriorate the insulation of electronic components and
result in burnout of these components.
