ELECTRICAL SAFETY and WARNINGS

1. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong on the attached power supply cord. Doing so may cause sparks or fire, and voids all warranties. For safety purposes the air conditioner must be properly grounded.

2. To avoid a fire hazard or possible electric shock, DO NOT use an adapter plug, extension cord,

surge protectors, or multi-outlet adapters with the air conditioner.

3. The power supply cord is equipped with a 3-prong plug which mates with a standard 115 volt wall outlet to minimize the possibility of electrical shock from this air conditioner.

4. The power supply cord includes a leakage current detection interrupter device (LCDI). A

RESET and TEST button are on the plug case. The device should be tested on a periodic basis by pressing the TEST button and then the RESET button while it is plugged into the wall outlet. If the TEST button does not trip or the RESET will not stay engaged, do not use the air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.

ENGLISH

5. Have the wall outlet and circuit inspected by a qualified electrician to ensure that the wall outlet is properly grounded.

6. If there is a 2-prong wall outlet present and not a 3-prong wall outlet, it is the responsibility of the user to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong outlet.

7. The air conditioner should always be plugged into a dedicated electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the serial label on the side of the air conditioner.

8. The electrical ratings for your air conditioner are listed on the Model/Serial Number label. The Model/Serial Number label is located on the side of the air conditioner cabinet, or behind the front grille.

9. Specific electrical requirements are listed in the chart below. Follow the requirements for the type of plug on the power supply cord.
