IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
The information contained in this manual is intended for use by a qualified service technician who is familiar with the safety procedures required for installation and repair, and who is equipped with the proper tools and test instruments required to service this product.
Installation or repairs made by unqualified persons can result in subjecting the unqualified person making such repairs as well as the persons being served by the equipment to hazards resulting in injury or electrical shock which can be serious or even fatal.
Safety warnings have been placed throughout this manual to alert you to potential hazards that may be encountered. If you install or perform service on equipment, it is your responsibility to read and obey these warnings to guard against any bodily injury or property damage which may result to you or others.
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.
This is a safety Alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

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, groundedinaccordancewithalllocalcodesandordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the customer’s responsibility to have a properly grounded 3 prong outlet installed by a qualified electrical component installer.
It is the customer’s responsibility:
To contact a qualified electrical installer, and to assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

This room air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord required by UL. This power supply cord contains state-of-the-art electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is crushed, the electronics detect leakage current and power will be disconnected in a fraction of a second.
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, fire, or electrical shock.
To test your power supply cord:
1.Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
2.Press RESET.
3.Press TEST (listen for click; Reset button will trip and pop out).
4.Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset butto will latch and remain in). The power supply cord is ready for operation.
NOTES:
The Reset button must be pushed in for proper operation.
The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the test button is pressed or if it fails to reset.
Do not use the power supply cord as an off/on switch. The power supply cord is designed as a protective device.
A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired.
The power supply cord contains no user serviceable parts. Opening the tamper-resistant case voids all warranty and performance claims.

COMPONENT DEFINITIONS
A. Mechanical components
Vent door
Exhausts stale room air outside.
Plenum assembly
Diffuser with directional louvers used to direct the conditioned airflow.
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.
Capillary tube
A cylindrical meter device used to evenly distribute the flow of refrigerant to the heat exchangers (coils).
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 cooling 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.
