Important points when selecting an installation site
Do not install your unit in areas that are:

• poorly ventilated
• subject to extreme temperature or humidity changes, e.g., near an air conditioner
or heater.
Be sure to allow the required space around the machine
for servicing and proper ventilation.
A small amount of ozone is produced within the unit during operation. The emission
level is insufficient to cause any health hazard.
Note:
The present recommended long term exposure limit for ozone is 0.1ppm (0.2m g /m

calculated as an 8hr. time-weighted average concentration.
However, since the small amount that is emitted may have an objectionable odor, it
is advisable to place the unit in a ventilated area.
