2. Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate the room when us_
together with stoves or other heating d_i_s.
3. Do not u_ _is air _nditioner for non-specified special purposes (e.g.
preserving precision devices, P_, pets, plants, and art objects). Such u_ge
could damage the items.
4. _e air condiUoner is a consumer _m_ appliance, not a precision climate
control system.
i. Do not touch the metal pa_s of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can
o_ur when handling sha_ metal _ges.
