Clean the tank, circulating fluid circuit, and change the circulating fluid
in the tank if any problems are found during the regular check.
Additionally, even if no problems are found, it is necessary to change
the fluid once every 3 months in case evaporation of the fluid causes
concentration of impurities. Refer to the page containing "8.2
Inspection and Cleaning" for the regular check.
Use specified circulating fluids only. If other fluids are used, they may
damage the product or result in dangerous hazards.
When using fresh water (tap water) ensure that it satisfies the water
standard shown in the table below.
If the water quality standards are not met, clogging or leakage in the
piping, or other problems such as refrigerant leakage, etc., may result.
