Safety Precautions - Panasonic 2WAY Multi U-16GE3E5 Manuel D'installation

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Be sure to arrange installation from the dealer where the system was
purchased or using a professional installer. If you attempt to perform the
work yourself, and do so incorrectly, there is danger of poisoning caused
by exhaust gases entering the building, as well as danger of water leakage,
electric shock and fire.
• Installation work must be performed correctly, in accordance with the
instructions listed here. Hazards from incorrect installation include
dangerous exhaust gas buildup, water leakage, electric shock and fire.
• Check the type of engine fuel used. If the wrong type of gas is used, the
engine can suffer combustion problems, and there is danger of poisoning
caused by exhaust gases.
• Ventilate the area in case refrigerant gas leaks during installation work.
If refrigerant gas comes into contact with flame during the tube brazing
process, toxic gas will be produced.
• When installation work is completed, check that there is no refrigerant gas
leakage.
If refrigerant gas leaks into the room and contacts the flame of a fan heater,
stove, burner, or other device, toxic gases will be produced.
• Never use (top up or replace) any refrigerant other than the specified
refrigerant (noted on the nameplate).
Doing so may cause a rupture in or breakdown of the device, or personal
injury.
• When installing or moving the A/C unit, do not allow refrigerants other than
the one specified (written on the label on the unit) or air to enter the unit's
refrigeration cycle.
• Always use nitrogen for the airtightness test. (Do not use oxygen-based
gases.)
• Never modify or repair the system yourself.
• Be sure to use a refrigerant recovery machine when recovering refrigerant
for relocation or repairs. It cannot be recovered into an outdoor unit.
Recovering refrigerant into an outdoor unit may result in serious accidents
such as rupturing and injury.
• When handling refrigerant gas, do not come in contact with the gas directly.
Doing so may result in frostbite.
