SAFETY DURING REPAIR WORK

1. In order to disassemble and repair

the unit in question, be sure to

disconnect the power cord plug

from the power outlet before starting

the work.

2. If it is necessary to replace any

parts, they should be replaced with respective genuine parts for the unit, and the replacement must be ef-

fected in correct manner according to the instructions in the Service Manual of the unit.

If the contacts of electrical

parts are defective, replace the

electrical parts without trying to

repair them.

3. After completion of repairs, the initial state

should be restored.

4. Lead wires should be connected and laid as

in the initial state.

5. Modiﬁcation of the unit by user himself should

absolutely be prohibited.

6. Tools and measuring instruments for use in repairs or inspection should be accurately calibrated in advance.

7. In installing the unit having been repaired, be careful to prevent the occurence of any accident such as

electrical shock, leak of current, or bodily injury due to the drop of any part.

8. To check the insulation of the unit, measure the insulation resistance between the power cord plug and

grounding terminal of the unit. The insulation resistance should be 1M or more as measured by a 500V

DC megger.

9. The initial location of installation such as window, ﬂoor or the other should be checked for being and safe

enough to support the repaired unit again.

If it is found not so strong and safe, the unit should be installed at the initial location reinforced or at a new

location.

10. Any inﬂammable thing should never

be placed about the location of

installation.

11. Check the grounding to see whether

it is proper or not, and if it is found

improper, connect the grounding

terminal to the earth.

DANGER

First, I must disconnect

the power cord plug

from the power outlet.

WORKING STANDARDS FOR PREVENTING BREAKAGE OF SEMICONDUCTORS

1. Scope

The standards provide for items to be generally observed in carrying and handling semiconductors in rela-

tive manufacturers during maintenance and handling thereof. (They apply the same to handling of abnormal

goods such as rejected goods being returned).

2. Object parts

(1) Micro computer

(2) Integrated circuits (IC)

(3) Field-effect transistors (FET)

(4) P.C. boards or the like on which the parts mentioned in (1) and (2) of this paragraph are equipped.

3. Items to be observed in handling

(1) Use a conductive container for carrying and storing of parts. (Even rejected goods should be handled

in the same way).

Fig. 1. Conductive Container

(2) When any part is handled uncovered (in counting, packing and the like), the handling person must al-

ways use himself as a body earth. (Make yourself a body earth by passing one M ohm earth resistance

through a ring or bracelet).

(3) Be careful not to touch the parts with your clothing when you hold a part even if a body earth is being

taken.

(4) Be sure to place a part on a metal plate with grounding.

(5) Be careful not to fail to turn off power when you repair the printed circuit board. At the same time, try

to repair the printed circuit board on a grounded metal plate.

1. In quiet or stop operation, slight ﬂowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle is heard occasionally,

but this noise is not abnormal for the operation.

2. When it thunders near by, it is recommended to stop the operation and to disconnect the power cord plug

from the power outlet for safety.

3. In the event of power failure, the air conditioner will restart automatically in the previously selected mode

once the power is restored. In the event of power failure during TIMER operation, the timer will be reset

and the unit will begin or stop operating under a new timer setting.

4. If the room air conditioner is stopped by adjusting thermostat, or missoperation, and re-start in a moment,

there is occasion that the cooling and heating operation does not start for 3 minutes, it is not abnormal

and this is the result of the operation of IC delay circuit. This IC delay circuit ensures that there is no

danger of blowing fuse or damaging parts even if operation is restarted accidentally.

5. This room air conditioner should not be used at the cooling operation when the outside temperature is

below 10°C (50°F).

6. This room air conditioner (the reverse cycle) should not be used when the outside temperature is below

–10°C (14°F).

If the reverse cycle is used under this condition, the outside heat exchanger is frosted and efﬁciency falls.

7. When the outside heat exchanger is frosted, the frost is melted by operating the hot gas system, it is not

trouble that at this time fan stops and the vapour may rise from the outside heat exchanger.

PRECAUTIONS DURING OPERATION

●Do not attempt to operate the unit with wet hands, this could cause fatal

accident.

●When operating the unit with burning equipments, regularly ventilate the

room to avoid oxygen insufﬁciency.

●Do not direct the cool air coming out from the air-conditioner panel to face

household heating apparatus as this may affect the working of apparatus

such as the electric kettle, oven etc.

●Do not place plants directly under the air ﬂow as it is bad for the plants.

●Please ensure that outdoor mounting frame is always stable, ﬁrm and

without defect. If not, the outdoor unit may collapse and cause danger.

●Do not splash or direct water to the body of the unit when cleaning it as

this may cause short circuit.

●When operating the unit with the door and windows opened, (the room humidity is always above

80%) and with the air deﬂector facing down or moving automatically for a long period of time,

water will condense on the air deﬂector and drips down occasionally. This will wet your furniture.

Therefore, do not operate under such condition for a long time.

●If the amount of heat in the room is above the cooling or heating capability of the unit (for

example: more people entering the room, using heating equipments and etc.), the preset room

temperature cannot be achieved.

●Do not climb on the outdoor unit or put objects on it.

●Please switch off the unit and turn off the circuit breaker during cleaning,

the high-speed fan inside the unit may cause danger.

●Turn off the circuit breaker if the unit is not to be operated for a long period.

●The product shall be operated under the manufacturer speciﬁcation and

not for any other intended use.

●Do not put water container (like vase) on the indoor unit to avoid water

dripping into the unit. Dripping water will damage the insulator inside the

unit and causes short-circuit.

●Do not use any aerosol or hair sprays near the indoor unit. This chemical

can adhere on heat exchanger ﬁn and blocked the evaporation water

ﬂow to drain pan. The water will drop on tangential fan and cause water

splashing out from indoor unit.
