Fuse/Circuit Breaker Use ONLY the correct HACR type and size fuse/circuit breaker. Read electrical ratings on unit’s
rating plate. Proper circuit protection is the responsibiity of the homeowner.
Grounding Unit MUST be grounded from branch circuit through service cord to unit, or through separate
ground wire provided on permanently connected units. Be sure that branch circuit or general
purpose outlet is grounded. Ground wire must be connected to ground screw located in lower
right corner of air conditioner when air conditioner is in cabinet. (CP 14, 18, 24)
Receptacle The eld supplied outlet must match plug on service cord and be within reach of service cord.

Recommended grounding method
This air conditioner must be grounded. This air conditioner
is equipped with a power supply cord having a grounded 3
prong plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating, grounded 3 prong outlet,
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
If a mating outlet is not available, it is the customer’s
responsibility to have a properly grounded 3 prong outlet
installed by a qualied electrical component installer.
It is the customer’s responsibility:
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove powercord ground prong.
Do not use a plug adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, re, or electrical shock.
To contact a qualied electrical installer, and to assure

Diffuser with directional louvers used to direct the conditioned airow.
Blower wheel
Attaches to the indoor side of the fan motor shaft and is used for distributing unconditioned, room side air through
the heat exchanger and delivering conditioned air into the room.
Slinger fan blade
Attaches to the outdoor side of the fan motor shaft and is used to move outside air through the condenser coil, while
slinging condensate water out of the base pan and onto the condenser coil, thus lowering the temperature and
pressures within the coil.
B. Electrical components
Thermistor
A sensor that automatically responds to temperature changes.
Capacitor
Reduces line current and steadies the voltage supply, while greatly improving the torque characteristics of the fan
motor and compressor motor.
MoneySaver® switch
Used to regulate the operation of the fan motor and the compressor or to turn the unit off. For troubleshooting, refer
to the wiring diagrams and schematics in the back of this service manual.
Fan Motor
Dual-shafted fan motor operates the indoor blower wheel and the condenser fan blade simultaneously.
C. Hermetic components
Compressor
Motorized device used to compress refrigerant through the sealed system.

AIR CONDITIONER USE
Operating the air conditioner properly helps you to obtain
the best possible results.
This section explains proper air conditioner operation.
IMPORTANT:
If you turn off the air conditioner, wait at least 3 minutes
before turning it back on. This prevents the air conditioner
from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cool-
ing mode when outside temperature is below 65°F
(18°C). The inside evaporator coil will freeze up, and
the air conditioner will not operate properly.
NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will operate at the previous settings when the
power is restored.
