How to connect electricity

For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

Electrical requirements

115-volt models require a

60 hz grounded outlet protected with a

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 shock hazard from these appliances.

PREFERRED , METHOD

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.

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 wall outlet by use of a

UL listed

at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the the wall outlet to polarity in the connection of the power cord.

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to wall 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.

When you move the Ventilation Control to CLOSE, the vent door is closed and 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.

Freezing up

Outside air temperature dropping

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.

The air filter behind the inlet grille should be washed at least every 30 days or as often as it needs cleaning.

To remove the filter,

on the filter and pull downward. the window sill blocks access to the air filter, you must first remove the front grille.

Vacuum the filter on the dusty side to remove light dust. Wash the filter, cleaner side up, under gently flowing water to wash out

accumulated dust and lint. If the

filter

is very dirty, use a mild household detergent in the wash water. Let the filter dry thoroughly

before replacing it. When replacing the filter, be sure

the word FRONT is facing you as you slide the filter back into place.

Ener~-Saving Tips

● 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.

● If plugged in, fuse could have blown or

circuit breaker may have tripped.

●

●

Room may have been very hot when air conditioner was first turned on. Allow time for it to cool down.

●

Cold air may be escaping through open furnace floor registers and cold air returns.

● Ventilation Control may be set at OPEN

position, allowing hot outside air to enter the room.

● Cooling coils have iced up. To melt ice,

move the Selector Switch to HI FAN and the Thermostat Control to a lower number.

● Thermostat click, a metallic sound, may be

heard when compressor cycles on and off. This is normal.

● Fan runs continuously when Selector

●

Air conditioner must be installed level or tilted

● This is normal for a short period in areas with

little humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid areas. Moisture removed from indoor air drains to rear of cabinet where it is picked up by a fan and thrown against the outdoor condenser coil.
