IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• A warning that the appliance shall be
stored in a well-ventilated area where the
room size corresponds to the room area
as specified for operation.
• Any person who is involved with working
on or breaking into a refrigerant circuit
should hold a current valid certificate from
an
industry-accredited
authority,
which
competence to handle refrigerants safely
in accordance with an industry recognised
assessment specification.
Examples for such working procedures are:
• breaking into the refrigerating circuit;
• opening of sealed components;
• opening of ventilated enclosures.
• No any open fire or device like switch
which may generate spark/arcing shall be
around air conditioner to avoid causing
ignition of the flammable refrigerant used.
Please follow the instruction carefully to
store or maintain the air conditioner to
prevent
mechanical
occurring.
• Do not use means to accelerate the
defrosting process or to clean, other than
those recommended by the manufacturer.
• The appliance shall be stored in a room
without continuously operating ignition
sources (for example: open flames, an
operating gas appliance) and ignition
sources or (for example: an operating
electric heater) close to the appliance.
• Do not pierce or burn.
• Be aware that the refrigerants may not
contain an odour.

6. Information on servicing
a) Checks to the area
Prior to beginning work on systems
containing flammable refrigerants, safety
checks are necessary to ensure that the
risk of ignition is minimised. For repair to
the refrigerating system, the following
precautions shall be complied with prior
to conducting work on the system.
b) Work procedure
Work shall be undertaken under a
controlled procedure so as to minimise
the risk of a flammable gas or vapour
from
being present while the work is being
performed.
c) General work area
All maintenance staff and others working
in the local area shall be instructed on
the nature of work being carried out.

shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the
conditions within the area have been
made safe by control of flammable
material.
d) Checking for presence of refrigerant
The area shall be checked with an
