must be carried out by qualied service personnel with suitable tools
and resources for the work.

1.4 PURPOSE OF THIS MANUAL
This air conditioner has been designed for standard air
conditioning for human beings. For use in other applications,
please contact your HITACHI dealer or service contractor.
The air conditioning system should only be installed by qualied
personnel, with the necessary resources, tools and equipment,
who are familiar with the safety procedures required to
successfully carry out the installation.
The supplementary information about the purchased products
is supplied in a CD-ROM, which can be found bundled with the
outdoor unit. In case that the CD-ROM is missing or it is not
readable, please contact your HITACHI dealer or distributor.
PLEASE READ THE MANUAL AND THE FILES ON THE
CD-ROM CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING WORK ON THE
INSTALLATION OF THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM.
Failure to observe the instructions for installation, use and
operation described in this documentation may result in
operating failure including potentially serious faults, or even the
destruction of the air conditioning system.
It is assumed that the air conditioning system will be installed
and maintained by responsible personnel trained for the
purpose. If this is not the case, the customer should include all
the safety, caution and operating signs in the native language of
the personnel responsible.
Do not install the unit in the following places, as this may lead to
a re, deformities, rusting or faults:
• Places where oil is present (including oil for machinery).
• Places with a high concentration of sulphurous gas, such as
spas.
• Places where ammable gases may be generated or
circulate.
• Places with a saline, acidic or alkaline atmosphere.
Do not install the unit in places where silicon gas is present. Any
silicon gas deposited on the surface of the heat exchanger will
repel water. As a result, the condensate water will splash out
of the collection tray and into the electrical box. Water leaks or
electrical faults may eventually be caused.
Do not install the unit in a place where the current of expelled
air directly affects animals or plants as they could be adversely
affected.
