IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL SAFETY INFORMATION BEFORE USING
•This air conditioner must be properly installed in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.
•Repair or replace immediately all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged.
•Turn the mode control knob to OFF and unplug your air conditioner before making any repairs.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that any servicing be performed by a qualified individual.
Extension Cord 115V
If an extension cord is required to reach the nearest wall receptacle, use only a UL-listed, 3-wire, grounded, 14 gauge, 15A, 125V appliance extension cord.
Adapter Plug 115V
This is a temporary method and is for 115-volt models only. UL-listed adapters are available at most hardware stores.
Because most 2-prong outlets are not grounded, we strongly advise against using an adapter plug.
However, a temporary connection may be made where local codes permit and if the 2-prong wall outlet is properly grounded.
When you plug the adapter in, make sure the larger prong goes into the larger slot to provide the proper polarity for the power cord.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR PROPER GROUNDING:
1Screw the adapter to the outlet, using the outlet cover screw.
2Ground the outlet through the house wiring.
When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, hold the adapter close to the outlet while pulling the plug out. If this is not done, the grounding connector is likely to break with repeated use.
If the grounding connector breaks, DO NOT USE the air conditioner until a proper ground has again
been made.

1 Temp Control
The temp control is used to maintain
the room temperature. The compressor will cycle on and off to keep the room at the same level of comfort. The higher the number selected, the cooler the indoor air will become.
The blower runs as long as the mode control is not on OFF.
2 Mode Control
HIGH COOL, MED COOL and LOW COOL provide cooling with different fan speeds.
FAN provides air circulation and filtering without cooling.
NOTE:
If you move the switch from a cool setting to OFF or to the FAN setting, wait at least 3 minutes before switching back to a cool setting.

Vent Control |
Fingertip pressure on the horizontal louvers adjusts the air direction up or down.
Vertical louvers adjust the air direction to the left or right.
The vent control is located on the inside of the air louvers. When set at closed, only the air inside the room is circulated, cooled and filtered.
When set at open, some indoor air will be exhausted from the room. This will reduce the cooling effect.
