Give it time to return tonormal temperature. If you must touch it, wearprotective gloves.▪ Do NOT touch any accidental leaking refrigerant.WARNINGProvide adequate measures to prevent that the unit can beused as a shelter by small animals. Small animals thatmake contact with electrical parts can cause malfunctions,smoke or fire.CAUTIONDo NOT touch the air inlet or aluminium fins of the unit.NOTICE▪ Do NOT place any objects or equipment on top of theunit.▪ Do NOT sit, climb or stand on the unit.NOTICEWorks executed on the outdoor unit are best done underdry weather conditions to avoid water ingress.In accordance with the applicable legislation, it might be necessaryto provide a logbook with the product containing at least: informationon maintenance, repair work, results of tests, stand-by periods,…Also, at least, following information must be provided at anaccessible place at the product:▪ Instructions for shutting down the system in case of an emergency▪ Name and address of fire department, police and hospital▪ Name, address and day and night telephone numbers forobtaining serviceIn Europe, EN378 provides the necessary guidance for this logbook.1.3.2 Installation site▪ Provide sufficient space around the unit for servicing and aircirculation.▪ Make sure the installation site withstands the unit's weight andvibration.▪ Make sure the area is well ventilated. Do NOT block anyventilation openings.▪ Make sure the unit is level.Do NOT install the unit in the following places:▪ In potentially explosive atmospheres.▪ In places where there is machinery that emits electromagneticwaves. Electromagnetic waves may disturb the control system,and cause malfunction of the equipment.▪ In places where there is a risk of fire due to the leakage offlammable gases (example: thinner or gasoline), carbon fibre,ignitable dust.▪ In places where corrosive gas (example: sulphurous acid gas) isproduced.
