Installation:

Must be installed by qualified technicians according to provided instructions.
Voltage of electrical supply must match the nameplate.
Avoid locations with smoke, combustible gas, extremely high temperatures (e.g., greenhouses), or excessive heat-generating objects.
For salt-air damage resistant models, avoid direct exposure to salty sea water or sulphurous air near spas to prevent heavy corrosion.
All wiring must conform to local electrical codes and be performed by a qualified electrician.
Each unit must be properly grounded.
Operation Preparation: Turn on the power mains 5 hours before starting operation (for warm-up) and keep it ON for continuous use.

Safety Precautions:

Confirm specified refrigerant type with an authorized dealer.
The unit has no ventilator for fresh air intake; open doors/windows frequently when using gas/oil heating appliances in the same room.
Do not use or store flammable liquids/vapors near the unit.
Do not use in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Do not touch the unit with wet hands.
Do not insert fingers or objects into indoor/outdoor units; rotating parts can cause injury.
Refrigerant in contact with flame produces toxic gas.
Disconnect power before cleaning/servicing.
In emergency, pull power plug, switch off breaker, or power disconnecting means.
Cleaning of internal/external units should be done by authorized dealers/specialists.
Do not repair malfunctions yourself; contact sales/service dealer.
Provide an exclusive power outlet with overcurrent protection (ELCB or RCD).
Ensure full disconnection means in fixed wiring.
Unit must be grounded to prevent insulation failure hazards.
Do not use modified, joint, extension, or unspecified cords.
Stop using immediately if abnormality/failure occurs (e.g., ELCB trips frequently, unit doesn't start, power disconnects when cord moves, burnt odor, abnormal noise, deformed/hot body, water leaks, hot power cord/plug, uncontrolled fan speed, unit stops immediately after starting, fan doesn't stop after operation stops). Contact local dealer for repair.
Keep fire alarm and air outlet at least 1.5m away.
Do not overcool/overheat rooms with babies or invalids present.
Use ON/OFF button, not main power switch, to turn unit on/off.
