controller) with a wet hand.

DANGER
• For refrigerant leakage, consult your dealer.
Refrigerant gas is heavier than air and replaces oxygen. A massive leak could lead to oxygen depletion, especially in
basements, and an asphyxiation hazard could occur leading to serious injury or death.
• Refrigerant gas may produce a toxic gas if it comes in contact with fire such as from a fan heater, stove or cooking
device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or death.
• Any abnormalities in the operation of the air conditioner such as smoke or fire could result in severe injury or death.
Turn off the power and contact your dealer immediately for instructions.
• Do not install the unit in an area where flammable materials are present due to risk of explosion resulting in serious injury or death.
• If equipment utilizing a burner is used in the same room as the air conditioner, there is the danger of oxygen deficiency
which could lead to an asphyxiation hazard resulting in serious injury or death.
Be sure to ventilate the room sufficiently to avoid this hazard.
• Safely dispose of the packing materials.
Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries. Tear apart and
throw away plastic packaging bags so that children will not play with them. Children playing with plastic bags face the
danger of death by suffocation.

WARNING
• It is not good for health to expose your body to the air flow for a long time.
• Do not put your finger, a rod or other objects into the air outlet or inlet. As the fan is rotating at a high speed and could,
cause injury. Always keep small children away from the unit during operation.
• Do not attempt to repair, relocate, modify or reinstall the air conditioner by yourself. Incorrect work or modifications could
cause electric shocks, fire or other damage.
For repairs and reinstallation, consult your Daikin dealer for advice and information.

• If the air conditioner is not cooling (heating) properly, the refrigerant may be leaking, contact your authorized dealer or
qualified service repairman.
When making repairs which requires adding refrigerant, consult with your authorized dealer or qualified service repairman.
• Do not attempt to install the air conditioner by yourself. Improper installation could result in water leakage, electric shocks
or fire. For installation, consult your authorized dealer or a qualified technician.

Turn on the power breaker
• Turning on the power breaker will cause the front panel and horizontal louver to open once
and then close again. (This is a normal procedure.)

CAUTION
• During operation (i.e. when the panel is open or being opened or closed), do not touch the panel with your
hands.

ATTENTION
• Wrap the terminals with tape to insulate them before discarding batteries. Mixing with other metals or batteries may cause heat, explosion or fire.

PRECAUTION
About batteries
• When replacing the batteries, use batteries of the same type, and replace the two old batteries together.
• When the system is not used for a long time, take the batteries out.
• The batteries will last for approximately one year. If the remote controller display begins to fade and the degradation of reception performance
occurs within a year, however, replace both two batteries with new size AAA.LR03 (alkaline).
• The attached batteries are provided for the initial use of the system.
The usable period of the batteries may be short depending on the manufactured date of the air conditioner.
About remote controller
• Never expose the remote controller to direct sunlight.
• Dust on the signal transmitter or receiver will reduce the sensitivity. Wipe off dust with soft cloth.
• Signal communication may be disabled if an electronic-starter-type fluorescent lamp (such as inverter-type lamps) is in the room. Consult the
service shop if that is the case.
• If the remote controller signals happen to operate another appliance, move that appliance to somewhere else, or consult the service shop.
Celsius/Fahrenheit display change function of remote controller
• The set temperature may increase when the display is changed to Celsius from Fahrenheit, because a fraction of 0.5°C is rounded up.
Example: A set temperature of 65°F (equivalent to 18.5°C) will be converted into 19°C.
When the display is changed to Fahrenheit again, the set temperature will be converted into 66°F (equivalent to 19°C) instead of the
original set temperature (65°F) but a set temperature of 66°F (equivalent to 19°C) will be converted into 19°C with no temperature change.
• A reception sound will go off for the transmission of set temperature to the indoor unit at the time of setting the Celsius/Fahrenheit display change function.

NOTE
Note on HEATING operation
• Since this air conditioner heats the room by taking heat from outdoor air to indoors, the HEATING capacity becomes smaller in lower outdoor
temperatures. If the HEATING effect is insufficient, it is recommended to use another HEATING appliance in combination with the air conditioner.
• The heat pump system heats the room by circulating hot air around all parts of the room. After the start of HEATING operation, it takes some time
before the room gets warmer.
• In HEATING operation, frost may occur on the outdoor unit and lower the HEATING capacity. In that case, the system switches into defrosting
operation to take away the frost.
• During defrosting operation, hot air does not flow out of indoor unit.

• During operation, the outdoor temperature may sometimes be displayed higher than it actually is in COOLING or “SARARA” DRYING mode or
lower in HEATING mode (especially if frost has accumulated on the outdoor unit), due to the effects of the air blown from the outdoor unit or the
temperature of the heat exchanger.
• The lowest indoor and outdoor temperature which can be displayed is 16°F (−9°C). This will be displayed even if the actual temperature is lower.
The highest temperature is 99°F (37°C). This will be displayed even if the actual temperature is higher.
• The indoor and outdoor temperatures and the humidity which are displayed are those near the sensors attached to the main air conditioner unit.
• The displayed temperature and humidity should only be taken as approximations, as they may be affected if there are objects around the sensors
or due to direct sunlight, depending on where the air conditioner is installed.

 Trouble Shooting
Call the service shop immediately.

CAUTION
When an abnormality (such as a burning smell) occurs, stop operation and turn the breaker OFF.
Continued operation in an abnormal condition may result in troubles, electric shocks or fire.
Consult the service shop where you bought the air conditioner.
Do not attempt to repair or modify the air conditioner by yourself.
Incorrect work may result in electric shocks or fire.
Consult the service shop where you bought the air conditioner.
If the air conditioner does not cool (or heat), leaking refrigerant is a possible cause, so please contact your dealer. Please
talk to a service repairman about any repairs needed when adding refrigerant.
Refrigerant used for the air conditioner is safe. Refrigerant does not leak usually, but if it leaks into the room and comes in contact
with any kind of flame, including those in fan heaters, gas stoves, gas heaters, etc., toxic gas may be generated.

If one of the following symptoms takes place, call the service shop immediately.

After a power failure

The air conditioner automatically resumes operation in about 3 minutes. You should just wait for a while.
• COMFORT SLEEP mode will be canceled. Re-set.

Lightning
If lightning may strike the neighbouring area, stop operation and turn the breaker OFF for system protection.

We recommend periodical maintenance.

In certain operating conditions, the inside of the air conditioner may get foul after several seasons of use, resulting in poor
performance. It is recommended to have periodical maintenance by a specialist aside from regular cleaning by the user. For specialist
maintenance, contact the service shop where you bought the air conditioner.
The maintenance cost must be born by the user.

Precautions for Interior Cleaning of Air Conditioner

Commercially available detergent for air conditioners can degrade the sterile effect of the air conditioner and exert a bad influence on the
interior resin and heat exchanger of the air conditioner. Moreover, in the worst case, it may result in serious problems such as water leakage.
Consult your service shop for the cleaning of the heat exchanger.
