1.1 General safety notes
Carefully read the operating manual before com-
missioning the units for the first time. It contains
useful tips and notes such as hazard warnings to
prevent personal injury and material damage.
Failure to follow the directions in this manual not
only presents a danger to people, the environment
and the system itself, but will void any claims for
liability.
Keep this operating manual and the refrigerant
data sheet near to the units.
1.2 Identification of notes
This section provides an overview of all important
safety aspects for proper protection of people and
safe and fault-free operation.The instructions and
safety notes contained within this manual must be
observed in order to prevent accidents, personal
injury and material damage.
Notes attached directly to the units must be
observed in their entirety and be kept in a fully
legible condition.
Safety notes in this manual are indicated by sym-
bols. Safety notes are introduced with signal words
which help to highlight the magnitude of the danger
in question.
DANGER!
Contact with live parts poses an immediate
danger of death due to electric shock. Damage
to the insulation or individual components may
pose a danger of death.
DANGER!
This combination of symbol and signal word
warns of a situation in which there is immediate
danger, which if not avoided may be fatal or
cause serious injury.
WARNING!
This combination of symbol and signal word

nents is only assured providing they are used as
intended and in a fully assembled state.
n
The units and components may only be set up,
installed and maintained by qualified per-

operation.
n
Do not operate units or components with
obvious defects or signs of damage.
n
Contact with certain unit parts or components
may lead to burns or injury.
n
The units and components must not be
exposed to any mechanical load, extreme
levels of humidity or extreme temperature.
n
Spaces in which refrigerant can leak sufficient
to load and vent. Otherwise there is danger of
suffocation.
n
All housing parts and device openings, e.g. air
inlets and outlets, must be free from foreign
objects, fluids or gases.
n
The units must be inspected by a service tech-
nician at least once annually. Visual inspec-
tions and cleaning may be performed by the
