WORKING STANDARDS FOR PREVENTING BREAKAGE OF SEMICONDUCTORS

1. Scope

The standards provide for items to be generally observed in carrying and handling semiconductors in

relative manufactures during maintenance and handling thereof. (They apply the same to handling of

abnormal goods such as rejected goods being returned.)

2. Object parts

(1) Microcomputer

(2) Integrated circuits (I.C.)

(3) Field effective transistor (F.E.T.)

(4) P.C. boards or the like to which the parts mentioned in (1) and (2) of this paragraph are equipped.

3. Items to be observed in handling

(1) Use a conductive container for carrying and storing of parts. (Even rejected goods should be handled in

the same way.)

(2) When any part is handled uncovered (in counting, packing and the like), the handling person must

always use himself as a body earth. (Make yourself a body earth by passing one M ohm earth

resistance through a ring or bracelet.)

(3) Be careful not to touch the parts with your clothing when you hold a part even if a body earth is

being taken.

(4) Be sure to place a part on a metal plate with grounding.

(5) Be careful not to fail to turn off power when you repair the printed circuit board. At the same time,

try to repair the printed circuit board on a grounded metal plate.

PREVENTION DES DOMMAGES AUX SEMI-CONDUCTEURS

1. Champ d'application

Pour éviter d'endommager les semi-conducteurs utilisés dans les unités, lors de chaque intervention

d'entretien ou de réparation, vous devez observer des précautions spéciales. Les mêmes précautions

doivent être prises lors de la manipulation d'organes défectueux qui doivent être retournés en usine.

2. Pièces détachées de l'appareillage.

(1) Microprocesseur

(2) Circuits intégrés (C.I.)

(3) Transistor à effet de champ (T.E.C)

(4) Circuits imprimés sur lesquels se trouvent implantés les composants (1) et (2).

3. Précautions de manipulation

(1) Pour transporter ou stocker un semi-conducteur, placez-le dans un emballage conducteur. Procéder de

même avec un composant défectueux.

(2) Lorsque vous maniqulez des composants qui ne sont pas protégés (par exemple pour les compter ou

les emballer), vous devez veiller à ce que votre corps soit électriquement relié à la terre. Pour cela,

portez un bracelet conducteur. Reliez le bracelet à une résistance de 1MΩ et celle-ci à la terre par

l'intermédiaire d'un conducteur.

(3) Veillez en outre à ce que vos vêtements ne viennent jamais en contact avec le composant même si

votre corps est relié à la terre.

(4) Déposez le composant sur une surface métallique correctement mise à la terre.

(5) Sous aucun prétexte, n'omettez de couper l'alimentation avant de procéder à une réparation sur un

circuit imprimé. Par ailleurs, l'intervention sur le circuit imprimé doit se faire alors que celui-ci repose

sur une surface métallique mise à la masse.

1. In quiet operation or stopping the running, its heard slight flowing noise of

refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle occasionally, but this noise is not abnormal

for the operation.

2. When it thunders near by, it is recommend to stop the operation and to

disconnect the power cord plug from the power outlet for safety.

3. The room air conditioner dose not start automaticaly after recovery of the

electric power failure for preventing fuse blowing. Re-press START / STOP

button after 3 minutes from when unit stopped.

4. If the room air conditioner is stopped by adjusting thermostat, or missoperation,

and re-start in a moment, there is occasion that the cooling and heating

operation does not start for 3 minutes, it is not abnormal and this is the result

of the operation of IC delay circuit. This IC delay circuit ensures that there is

no danger of blowing fuse or damaging parts even if operation is restarted

accidentally.

5. This room air conditioner should not be used at the cooling operation when the

outside temperature is below –10˚C (14˚F).

6. This room air conditioner (the reverse cycle) should not be used when the

outside temperature is below –15˚C (5˚F).

If the reverse cycle is used under this condition, the outside heat exchanger is

frosted and efficiency falls.

7. When the outside heat exchanger is frosted, the front is melted by operating

the hot gas system, it is not trouble that at this time fan stops and the vapour

may rise from the outside heat exchanger.

CAUTION

– 7 –

1. Dans certaines conditions et pendant un arrêt de fonctionnement, on peut

parfois entendre le bruit du réfrigérant circulant dans les canalisations; ce bruit

n'a rien d'anormal.

2. Pour des raisons de sécurité, il est conseillé, pendant un orage, d'arrêter le

fonctionnement du système en coupant l'alimentation électrique.

3. Pour éviter que le fusible ne fonde, le climatiseur ne démarre pas

automatiquement après une panne de secteur. La remise en marche suppose

une pression sur la touche START / STOP après un délai d'au moins 3 minutes

suivant l'arrêt.

4. Si le climatiseur est arrêté à la suite d'un réglage de thermostat, ou à cause

d'une fausse manoeuvre et qu'il est remis en route, il se peut que la

réfrigération ou le chauffage ne reprenne qu'après 3 minutes. Ce phénomène

est normal et dû à un relais temporisé. Ce relais temporisé a pour rôle

d'éviter que le fusible ne fonde ou que des composants ne soient

endommagés par une remise en service accidentelle.

5. Ce climatiseur ne doit pas être utilisé pour réfrigérer une pièce lorsque la

température extérieure est inférieure à –10˚C (14˚F).

6. Ce climatiseur ne doit pas être utilisé lorsque la température extérieure est

inférieure à –15˚C (5˚F).

En effet, dans ce cas, l'échangeur de chaleur extérieur gèle et le rendement

chute considérablement.

7. Quand l'échangeur de chaleur extérieur est givré, les gaz chauds peuvent

entraîner une vaporisation de l'eau accumulée sur la face avant. Ce n'est pas

un problème si à ce moment-là le ventilateur s'arrête et il se peut que de la

vapeur se dégage de l'échangeur de chaleur extérieur.

PRECAUTIONS DURING OPERATION

Do not attempt to operate the unit with wet hands, this could cause fatal

accident.

When operating the unit with burning equipments, regularly ventilate the

room to avoid oxygen insufficiency.

Do not direct the cool air coming out from the air-conditioner panel to face

household heating apparatus as this may affect the working of apparatus

such as the electric kettle, oven etc.

Do not use any aerosol or hair sprays near the indoor unit. This chemical

can adhere on heat exchanger fin and blocked the evaporation water flow

to drain pan. The water will drop on tangential fan and cause water splashing

out from indoor unit.

Please ensure that outdoor mounting frame is always stable, firm and

without defect. If not, the outdoor unit may collapse and cause danger.

Do not splash or direct water to the body of the unit when cleaning it as this

may cause short circuit.

When operating the unit with the door and windows opened, (the room humidity is always above

80%) and with the air deflector facing down or moving automatically for a long period of time,

water will condense on the air deflector and drips down occasionally. This will wet your furniture.

Therefore, do not operate under such condition for a long time.

If the amount of heat in the room is above the cooling or heating capability of the unit (for

example: more people entering the room, using heating equipments and etc.), the preset room

temperature cannot be achieved.

This appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental

capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or

instruction. Children must be supervised not to play with the appliance.

Do not climb on the outdoor unit or put objects on it.

Please switch off the unit and turn off the circuit breaker during cleaning, the

high-speed fan inside the unit may cause danger.
