    N O T E • The text following this symbol contains information or instructions that may be of use or that require a more thorough explanation. • Instructions regarding inspections to be made on unit parts or systems may also be included. 1.3 Norms and Regulations Following Regulation EU Nº 517/2014 on Certain Fluorinated Greenhouse gases, it is mandatory to fill in the label attached to the unit with the total amount of refrigerant charged on the installation. Do not vent R32 into the atmosphere: R32 is fluorinated greenhouse gas covered by the Kyoto protocol global warming potential (GWP) R32 = 675. Do not vent R410A into the atmosphere: R410A are fluorinated greenhouse gases covered by the Kyoto protocol global warming potential (GWP) R410A = 2088. Tn of CO equivalent of fluorinated greenhouse gases contained is calculated by indicated GWP * Total Charge (in kg) indicated in the product label and divided by 1000. Appropriate refrigerant The refrigerant used in each unit is identified on the specification label and manuals of the unit. Hitachi shall not be held liable for any failure, trouble, malfunction or accident caused by units illegally charged with refrigerants other than the specified one. Consequences of charging non-specified refrigerant It may cause mechanical failure, malfunction and other accidents. It may cause operational failure of protection and safety devices of air conditioners. It may also cause lubrication failure of the sliding part of the compressor due to deterioration of refrigerant oil. In particular, hydrocarbon refrigerants (such as propane, R441A, R443A, GF-08, etc.) are not allowed, since these are combustible and may cause major accidents such as fire and explosion in case of improper handling. Once a non-specified refrigerant has been charged, no further servicing (including draining of refrigerant) shall be performed, even in case of malfunction. Improper handling of refrigerant may be a cause of fire and explosion, and servicing in such cases may be considered an illegal act. End clients and costumers shall be informed that servicing is not approved, and the installer who charged the nonspecified refrigerant shall be asked to fix the unit. Hitachi will accept no responsibility for units that have been charged with non-specified refrigerant once. SMGB0137 rev.0 - 05/2021...

Model Units Remarks PI-160LS1 RCI-(1.0-6.0)FSR To connect to the panel outlet The quantity of air from the branched duct side is shown in the table below as the air quantity index of the unit. If two branched ducts are connected to the unit, the amount of air from the branched duct side will be greater and the speed of the air on the 3-way outlet side will decrease. Therefore, the hot air projection distance will be reduced. 1 Where the branch duct is installed from this viewpoint, apply the dimensions indicated in the figure below to avoid accidents. 2 Use ducts with non-combustible insulating materials. 3 Fit enough heat insulation to the duct to avoid condensation. Main body 4 Follow the regulations in force regarding this matter in the place of installation or use the dimensions indicated in the figure below if there are no applicable regulations.
