SAFETY & IMPORTANT INFORMATION
6) No ignition sources
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system which
involves exposing any pipe work that contains or has contained flammable
refrigerant shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may
lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources,
including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufficiently far away from the
site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which flammable
refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior to work
taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure
that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks. No Smoking signs shall
be displayed.
7) Ventilated area
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before
breaking into the system or conducting any hot work. A degree of ventilation
shall continue during the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation
should safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it
externally into the atmosphere.
8) Checks to the refrigeration equipment
Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the
purpose and to the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer’s
maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed. If in doubt consult the
manufacturer’s technical department for assistance. The following checks shall
be applied to installations using flammable refrigerants:
The charge size is in accordance with the room size within which the
refrigerant containing parts are installed;
The ventilation machinery and outlets are operating adequately and are not
obstructed;
If an indirect refrigerating circuit is being used, the secondary circuit
shall be checked for the presence of refrigerant; Marking to the equipment
continues to be visible and legible. Markings and signs that are illegible
shall be corrected;
Refrigeration pipe or components are installed in a position where they are
unlikely to be exposed to any substance which may corrode refrigerant
containing components, unless the components are constructed of materials
which are inherently resistant to being corroded or are suitably protected
against being so corroded.
9) Checks to electrical devices
Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety
checks and component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could
compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit
until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the fault cannot be corrected
immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an adequate temporary
solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment
so all parties are advised.
Initial safety checks shall include:
That capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid
possibility of sparking;
That there no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while
charging, recovering or purging the system; That there is continuity of earth
bonding.
7. Repairstosealedcomponents
- During repairs to sealed components, all electrical supplies shall be disconnected from the equipment being worked upon prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an electrical supply to equipment during servicing, then a permanently operating form of leak detection shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially hazardous situation.
- Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by
working on electrical components, the casing is not altered in such a way that
the level of protection is affected. This shall include damage to cables,
excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original specification,
damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc. Ensure that apparatus is
mounted securely. Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded
such that they no longer serve the purpose of preventing the ingress of
flammable atmospheres. Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the
manufacturer’s specifications.
NOTE: The use of silicon sealant may inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection equipment. Intrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them.

SAFETY & IMPORTANT INFORMATION
8. Repairtointrinsicallysafecomponents
Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit
without ensuring that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current
permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only
types that can be worked on while live in the presence of a flammable
atmosphere. The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replace
components only with parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may
result in the ignition of refrigerant in the atmosphere from a leak.
9. Cabling
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure,
vibration, sharp edges or any other adverse environmental effects. The check
shall also take into account the effects of aging or continual vibration from
sources such as compressors or fans.
10. Detectionofflammablerefrigerants
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the
searching for or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
11. Leakdetectionmethods
The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems
containing flammable refrigerants. Electronic leak detectors shall be used to
detect flammable refrigerants, but the sensitivity may not be adequate, or may
need re-calibration. (Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a
refrigerant-free area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of
ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment
shall be set at a percentage of the LFL of the refrigerant and shall be
calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas
(25 % maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with
most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be
avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper
pipe-work. If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/
extinguished.
If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the
refrigerant shall be recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shut
off valves) in a part of the system remote from the leak. Oxygen free nitrogen
(OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and during the
brazing process.
12. Removalandevacuation
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs or for any other
purpose conventional procedures shall be used. However, it is important that
best practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. The following
procedure shall be adhered to:
Remove refrigerant; Purge the circuit with inert gas; Evacuate; Purge again
with inert gas; Open the circuit by cutting or brazing.
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders.
The system shall be flushed with OFN to render the unit safe. This process may
need to be repeated several times. Compressed air or oxygen shall not be used
for this task. Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system
with OFN and continuing to fill until the working pressure is achieved, then
venting to atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process
shall be repeated until no refrigerant is within the system.
When the final OFN charge is used, the system shall be vented down to
atmospheric pressure to enable work to take place. This operation is
absolutely vital if brazing operations on the pipe-work are to take place.
Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any ignition
sources and there is ventilation available.
13. Chargingprocedures
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements
shall be followed. Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does
not occur when using charging equipment. Hoses or lines shall be as short as
possible to minimise the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
Cylinders shall be kept upright.
Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system
with refrigerant.
Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigeration system. Prior to
recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall
be leak tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow
up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.

SAFETY & IMPORTANT INFORMATION
14. Decommissioning
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is
completely familiar with the equipment and all its detail. It is recommended
good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely.
Prior to the task being carried out, an oil and refrigerant sample shall be
taken in case analysis is required prior to re-use of reclaimed refrigerant.
It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is
commenced.
a) Become familiar with the equipment and its operation.
b) Isolate system electrically.
c) Before attempting the procedure ensure that: Mechanical handling equipment
is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders; All personal
protective equipment is available and being used correctly;
The recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person;
Recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.
d) Pump down refrigerant system, if possible.
e) If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be
removed from various parts of the system.
f) Make sure that cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes
place.
g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer’s
instructions.
h) Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80% volume liquid charge).
i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even
temporarily.
j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed,
make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly
and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.
k) Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration
system unless it has been cleaned and checked.
15. Labelling
Equipment shall be labelled stating that it has been de-commissioned and
emptied of refrigerant. The label shall be dated and signed. Ensure that there
are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable
refrigerant.
16. Recovery
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or
decommissioning, it is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are
removed safely. When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only
appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed. Ensure that the
correct number of cylinders for holding the total system charge is available.
All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and
labelled for that refrigerant (i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of
refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief valve and
associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are
evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs. The recovery
equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning
the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of
flammable refrigerants.
In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in
good working order. Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect
couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that
it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained and that any
associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event
of a refrigerant release.
Consult manufacturer if in doubt. The recovered refrigerant shall be returned
to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant
Waste Transfer Note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and
especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be
removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level to make
certain that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The
evacuation process shall be carried out prior to returning the compressor to
the suppliers. Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employed
to accelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall be
carried out safely.

temperature.
· Do not place the air conditioner or plastic window slider in direct
sunlight. Close all curtains in the room being cooled.
· For maximum cooling (COOLING MODE), set the temperature at 18°C and the fan
at HIGH. After approximately 3 minutes, the compressor will turn on and cooled
air will come out of the front air outlet. Warm air will also come out of the
rear outlet and into the exhaust hose.
· In COOLING MODE the air conditioner will not cool unless the set temperature
is below the existing room temperature.
· In COOLING MODE once the existing room temperature reaches the set
temperature, the fan continues operating and the compressor switches on and
off to maintain the set temperature within the room.
· For maximum cooling output keep the exhaust hose as short and as straight as
possible. Minimise bends which can reduce the maximum cooling capacity of the
air conditioner. Elevate the air conditioner if necessary.
· Make sure the air intake and outlet grills are unobstructed. · Clean the
filters at least once every two weeks.

WARNING KEEP BATTERIES OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. Swallowing may lead to
serious injury in as little as 2 hours or death, due to chemical burns
and potential perforation of the oesophagus. If you suspect your child has
swallowed or inserted a button battery immediately call the
24-hour Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26 for fast, expert advice.
Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment is correctly secured,
e.g.
that the screws or other mechanical fasteners are tight. DO NOT use if
compartment is not secure. Dispose of used button batteries immediately and
safely. Flat batteries can still be dangerous and may be a choking hazard.
Inform others about the risk associated with button batteries and how to keep
their children safe. Remove the batteries if the remote is not going to be use
for prolonged periods. This will help prevent damage from leaking
batteries. If leakage has occurred and corrosion is evident the remote will
need to be replaced. Leaking chemicals are toxic and MUST NOT be touched or
ingested. NEVER mix old and new batteries. DO NOT immerse the remote control
in any liquid, this will damage the remote control, rendering it inoperable
and voiding
its warranty.
