ard.
•
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not install the unit when it is
raining.
•
Never attempt to repair the unit without the proper qualifications. If the
air conditioner must be repaired consult the dealer, contractor or quali-
fied Refrigeration Engineer.
- If the unit is repaired improperly, water leakage, electric shock, or fire may
result.
•
Have all electric work done by a licensed electrician according to the
"Electric Facility Engineering Standard", the "Wire Regulations in each
area" and the instructions given in this manual and always use a dedi-
cated power supply.
- If the power source capacity is inadequate or electric work is performed
improperly, electric shock and fire may result.
•
Securely install the outdoor unit terminal cover (panel).
- If the terminal cover (panel) is not installed properly, dust or water may
enter the outdoor unit and fire or electric shock may result.
•
When moving and reinstalling the air conditioner, consult the dealer or
an authorized technician.
- If the air conditioner is installed improperly, water leakage, electric shock, or
fire may result.
•
Do not reconstruct or change the settings of the protection devices.
- If the pressure switch, thermal switch, fuse, or other protection device is
shorted or operated forcibly, or parts other than those specified by Mitsubi-
shi Electric are used, fire or explosion may result.
•
To dispose of this product, consult your dealer.
•
The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against leakage

1.2. Before installation
Caution:
•
Do not use the air conditioner in special environments.
- Oil, steam, sulfuric smoke, etc. can significantly reduce the performance of
the air conditioner or damage its parts.
•
When installing the unit in a hospital, communication station, or similar
place, provide sufficient protection against noise.
- Inverter equipment, private power generator, high-frequency medical equip-
ment, or radio communication equipment may cause the air conditioner to
operate erroneously, or fail to operate. On the other hand, the air condi-
tioner may affect such equipment by creating noise that disturbs medical
treatment or image broadcasting.

Ground the unit.
- Do not connect the ground wire to gas or water pipes, lightning rods, or tel-
ephone ground lines. Improper grounding may result in electric shock.
•
Install the power cable so that tension is not applied to the cable.
- Tension may cause the cable to break and generate heat and cause a fire.
•
Install a leak circuit breaker, as required.
- If a leak circuit breaker is not installed, electric shock may result.
