Where a standard two-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall outlet.

NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM

Whether your air conditioner is a 115-volt or a 230/208-volt unit, it is important to have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician if there is any doubt as to whether a proper ground exists.

Use of adapter plug

(115-volt models only)

Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we

strongly recommend against use of an adapter plug. However, if

you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-prong listed adapter (Fig. 2) available at most local hardware stores.

When disconnecting the power

cord from the adapter, always

hold the adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.

Should the adapter ground terminal break, DO NOT USE the appliance until a proper ground has again been established.

Thermostat Control

When you move the Thermostat Control to the desired setting, the thermostat will automatically control the temperature of the indoor air. The higher the number selected, the cooler the indoor air will become.

If you notice that your air conditioner is not cooling as it should, it may be that ice has formed on the cooling coils. The ice blocks air flow and stops the unit from cooling the room. This “freezing up” is a temporary condition that most often occurs at night when the Thermostat is set at a higher number and the Selector is set on LO COOL.

To correct the condition, set the Selector at HI FAN or HI COOL and move the Thermostat to the warmest setting.

Ventilation Control

When you move the Ventilation Control to CLOSE, the vent door is closed and only the air inside the room will be circulated and conditioned. Moving the control to OPEN opens the vent door, allowing a small amount of indoor air to be exhausted from the room.

However, cooling effectiveness is reduced when this control is set at

so we suggest you don’t keep it there long+ specially in hot, humid weather.

For normal cooling

1. Set the Selector Switch at HIGH

COOL.

2. Set the Thermostat Control at the desired number (usually 5-7 is a good starting position). If room temperature is not satisfactory after a reasonable time, set the Thermostat Control at a higher number for a cooler room or at a lower number for a warmer room.

3. Set the Energy Saver Switch NORMAL position for continuous fan operation or at SAVE position to automatically cycle the fan on and off with the compressor.

4. Set the Ventilation Control at CLOSE except for brief periods when you want to exhaust room air to the outside.

Energ-Saving

● Keep the air filter clean.

● For most efficient cooling,

keep the ventilation control in the CLOSE 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, furniture, rugs and draperies, your air conditioner takes longer to produce the desired comfort condition.

● Keep windows and doors

closed. Cool, dry air escapes when they’re open.

● Keep furnace floor registers and

cold air returns closed. Cold air can

easily

escape through them.

●

Don’t let drapes or furniture block the top or front of unit and restrict air flow when it is operating.

●

It’s best to operate your air conditioner at high speed during extremely hot weather.

Keep the outdoor condenser

coil clean.

●

Turn air conditioner off before vacations or extended absences from home.
