USAGE PRECAUTIONS

• When you use this product, it will become possible to operate the air conditioner from locations where you cannot see it directly.
  This means that people in the room may be exposed to the unintended operation of the air conditioner. Check the condition of the room before using this product.

• Be sure to check on a regular basis that the power supply to the air conditioner is securely connected, and that dust has not built up in the surrounding area. It may cause heating, or fi re.

• Be sure to check in advance that there are no malfunctions of the air conditioner.

• Be sure that the airflow from the air conditioner will not cause any adverse effects. Objects may fall down causing personal injury, fire, or damage to property.

• If you know that there are people in the vicinity of the air conditioner, inform them in advance that you will be operating and stopping it from a distant location. Sudden operation or stopping of the air conditioner may surprise a person and cause the person to fall down or tumble if the person is on a stand. Furthermore, rapid changes in the outside temperature/room temperature may cause deterioration in a person’s physical condition. Do not use this product when there are people in the room who are not able to control the temperature by themselves (For example, infants, children, those with physical disabilities, elderly or sick persons.).

• Fully understand the reserved timer settings and other operations before using this product.
  Unexpected operation or stopping of the air conditioner may cause deterioration in a person’s physical condition or an adverse effect on animals or plants.

• If you operate the air conditioner from this product, there will be no flashing of the indicator lamps, nor any reception sounds from the air conditioner.

• If there is bad reception between this product and the wireless router, adjusting the wireless router position or direction of the antenna may improve the reception. It may also be possible to improve reception by moving the wireless router closer to this product or using a wireless LAN repeater.

WIRELESS LAN USAGE PRECAUTIONS

When you use a wireless LAN, there are precautions that you must follow in relation to radio waves, personal information, and so on. To use this product correctly, be sure to read the following precautions and the operating manual of the wireless LAN equipment you are using. We will assume no responsibility, unless legal liability is recognized, in regards to failures, other defects and damages incurred by use of this product that occur through incorrect use or during use by yourself or a third party.

3.1. Radio Wave Usage Precautions
CAUTION
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from person’s body.

NOTES
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada license- exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.

• Do not use this product in the following locations. Using this product in such locations may cause communications becoming unstable or not possible.
• Near wireless communication equipment that uses the same frequency band (2.4GHz) as this product.
• Places where there are magnetic fi elds from equipment such as microwave ovens, or static electricity or radio wave interference occurs. (Radio waves may not reach depending on the environment.)

3.2. Personal Information (Security-related) Usage Precautions

• There is a possibility of interception if you use wireless LAN equipment due to the use of radio waves regardless of whether you use encryption or not.
• Wireless LAN uses radio waves to exchange information between this product and the wireless router. This means it has the advantage of freely being able to make a LAN connection if within reach of radio waves. On the other hand, if the radio waves are within a certain range, they will reach all locations beyond obstacles (e.g. walls). Therefore, it is possible your communications may be intercepted and read or illegally intruded upon.

• Do not use this product within aircraft.

• Do not use this product near electronic equipment that handles high-precision control or weak signals.
  Examples of electronic equipment to be careful of:
  Hearing aids, pacemakers, fi re alarms, automatic doors and other automatic control equipment

• This is not a guarantee of wireless connection and performance with all wireless routers and in all residential environments. Radio waves may not reach or may be interrupted in the following situations.

• Use in buildings made from concrete, rebars or metal

• Installation near obstacles

• Interference with wireless communication equipment using the same frequency

• Places where there are magnetic fields from equipment such as microwave ovens, or static electricity or radio wave interference occurs

• Install and setup this product only after reading the operating manual of the wireless router.

• Installation work must be performed in accordance with national wiring standards by authorized personnel only.

CAUTION

• Install the WLAN adapter near the wireless router. (The connection will become unstable if it is placed further away, which will make using the system more diffi cult.)

• Certain types of wall materials may shut out wireless communications.

• Do not touch the heat exchanger.

• During installation or removal, do not have the wire caught by any parts nor pull it hard.
  It may result in malfunction of the air conditioner.
  [Additional cautions for WLAN adapter A (Refer to “Accessories”).]

• Do not bundle the WLAN adapter wiring with the connection cable running between the indoor and outdoor units, or the power supply cable.

• Install the WLAN adapter between the indoor unit and wireless router.

• Please do not install the WLAN adapter in the following places. Otherwise, radio communication may be interfered.
  – Places exposed to direct sunlight
  – Places subject to extremely high and low temperatures, such as near the outlet port of the air conditioner main body
  – Near the air conditioner air inlet or outlet
  – Places with high humidity
  – Places near moving parts of the air conditioner main body
