IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, electric shock
or personal injury.
■Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s
Manual.
■This air conditioner must be properly
installed in accordance with the Installation
Instructions before it is used.
■Never unplug your air conditioner by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip plug firmly
and pull straight out from the receptacle.
■Repair or replace immediately all electric
service cords that have become frayed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that
shows cracks or abrasion damage along its
length or at either the plug or connector end.
■Turn the mode control to
OFF
and unplug
your air conditioner before making any
repairs or cleaning.
NOTE:
We strongly recommend that any
servicing be performed by a qualified
individual.
■For your safety…do not store or use
combustible materials, gasoline or other
flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity
of this or any other appliance.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord. For
personal safety, this appliance must be properly
grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard 3-prong (grounding) wall
outlet to minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.
The air conditioner should always be
plugged into its own individual electrical
outlet which has a voltage rating that matches
the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also
prevents overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
See the Installation Instructions,
Electrical
Requirements
section for specific electrical
connection requirements.

WARNING!
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-listed,
14 gauge, 3-wire grounding type appliance
extension cord having a grounding type plug
and outlet and that the electrical rating of the
cord be 15 amperes (minimum) and 125 volts.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use an extension cord with any of
the 230/208 volt models.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS –
115-Volt models only
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapter, where
local codes permit, a
temporary connection
may
be made to a properly grounded 2-prong wall
outlet by use of a UL-listed adapter available at
most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned
with the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide
proper polarity in the connection of the power
cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adapter, always hold the adapter in place with
one hand while pulling the power cord plug
with the other hand. If this is not done, the
adapter ground terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT
USE
the air conditioner until a proper ground
has been established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall outlet
cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the
cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall
outlet is grounded through the house wiring. You should
have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS –
115-Volt models only
READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

Lights next to the touch pads on the air conditioner
control panel indicate the selected settings.
COOL Mode

▼ pads to set the desired temperature
between 60°F and 86°F in 1°F increments.
A thermostat is used to maintain the room
temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off
to keep the room at the set level of comfort. Set the
thermostat at a lower number and the indoor air
will become cooler. Set the thermostat at a higher
number and the indoor air will become warmer.
NOTE: If the air conditioner is off and is then turned on
while set to COOL, it will take approximately 3 minutes
for the compressor to start and cooling to begin.
Cooling Descriptions
For Normal Cooling–
Select the
COOL
mode and
HIGH (F3)
or
MED (F2)
fan with a middle set

NOTE: If you switch from a COOL setting to OFF or to
a fan setting, wait at least 3 minutes before switching
back to a COOL setting.
FAN Mode
Use the
FAN
at
HIGH (F3), MED (F2) orLOW (F1)
