How to connect

For personal safety,
this appliance must be
properly grounded.
Electrical requirements
115-volt models require a 115/120-
volt a.c., 60 hz grounded outlet
protected with
fuse
or
circuit breaker.
The power cord on these models has
a three-prong (grounding) plug that
mates with a standard three-prong
(grounding) wall outlet (Fig. 1) to
minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from these appliances.

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.

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,
you still
elect
to use an adapter,

BEFORE USE
The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger

wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection
of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter

outlet
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
outlet is grounded through house
wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
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.
Use of extension cords
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord.
However, if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL listed
3-
wire grounding type appliance
extension cord and that the current
carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equal to or greater than
the branch circuit size shown on
the rating nameplate of the
appliance.

For nighttime operation
During the cooler evening hours,
we recommend that you set the
