injuries or death from oxygen depletion.
CAUTION
Be very careful when transporting the product.
• Do not attempt to carry the product without assistance.
• Some products use polypropylene bands for packaging. Do not use polypropylene bands to lift the unit.
• Suspend the unit from the base at specified positions.
• Support the unit at a minimum of four points to avoid slippage from rigging apparatus.
• Failure to follow these directions may result in minor or moderate physical injury.
Note:
Properly insulate all cold surfaces to prevent "sweating."
Cold surfaces such as uninsulated pipe can generate condensate that
may drip and cause a slippery floor condition and/or water damage to
walls.
When installing the unit in a hospital, mechanical room, or
similar electromagnetic field (EMF) sensitive environment,
provide sufficient protection against electrical noise.
Inverter equipment, power generators, high-frequency medical equip-
ment, or radio communication equipment may cause the air conditioner to
operate improperly. The unit may also affect such equipment by creating
electrical noise that disturbs medical treatment or image broadcasting.
Do not use the product for special purposes such as pre-
serving foods, works of art, wine coolers, or other precision
air conditioning applications. This equipment is designed to
provide comfort cooling and heating.
There is risk of property damage.
Do not make refrigerant substitutions. Use R410A only.
If a different refrigerant is used, or air mixes with original refrigerant, the
unit will malfunction and become damaged.
Do not install the unit in a noise sensitive area.
When connecting refrigerant tubing, remember to allow for
pipe expansion.
Improper piping may cause refrigerant leaks and system malfunction.
Take appropriate actions at the end of HVAC equipment life
to recover, recycle, reclaim or destroy R410A refrigerant ac-
cording to applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) rules.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Periodically check that the outdoor unit is not damaged.
There is a risk of equipment damage.
Install the unit in a safe location where no one can step on or
fall onto it.
Do not install the unit with defective hanging,
attaching, or mounting hardware.
There is risk of unit and property damage.
Install the drain hose to ensure adequate drainage.
There is a risk of water leakage and property damage.
Don't store or use flammable gas/combustibles near the
unit.
There is risk of product failure.
Always check for system refrigerant leaks after the unit has
been installed or serviced.
Low refrigerant levels may cause product failure
The unit is shipped with refrigerant and the service valves
closed.
Do not open service valves on the unit until all
non-condensibles have been removed from the piping sys-
tem and authorization to do so has been obtained from the
com-missioning agent.
There is a risk of refrigerant contamination, refrigerant loss and equip-
ment damage.
