vent in closed position except when
you want to exhaust air, smoke or
odors from the room.

~ Don’t let the room get too hot.
Whenever possible, turn the unit

on before the room heats up. When
heat is “stored up” in walls, furni-

ture, rugs and draperies, your air
conditioner takes longer to produce
the desired con]fort condition.

useofextensionCords

Because of potential safety
hazards ~~ndercertain conditions,
westrongly recomend against the
use of an extemion cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that
it be a ~, listed 3-wiregrounding
type appliance extension cord and
that the current carlying rating of
the cord in amperes be equal to or
greater than the branch circuit size
shown on the rating name plate of

the appliance. Such extension cords
are obtainable through your local

service organization.

Have the wall outlet and circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly

grounded.

to have it replaced with a properly

grounded three-prong wall outlet.

CAUTION: Attaching adapter
