Use the specied non-ammable refrigerant
(R410A) for the outdoor unit in the refrigerant
cycle. Do not charge material other than
R410A into the unit such as hydrocarbon
refrigerants (propane or something similar),
oxygen, ammable gases (acetylene or etc.) or
poisonous gases when installing, maintaining
and moving. These ammables are extremely
dangerous and may cause an explosion, a re,
and injury.
