WARNING
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 the grounded 3-prong
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.

WALL INSTALLATION
Construction and Installation
NOTES:
1. Be certain that the location of the air conditioner in the wall conforms to all local building codes
2. Consult with a qualified carpenter concerning installation.
3. When installing the air conditioner in a through-the-wall application, work from inside the room.
4. Each through-the-wall installation may be unique; therefore no additional parts are included.
5. Be certain that the section of the wall being used:
before installation.
• Does not have electrical wiring in the location where the air conditioner will be installed.
• Does not have plumbing pipes in the location where the air conditioner will be installed.
• An existing electrical outlet that matches the power supply cord plug of the air conditioner. If no
outlet exists or the wrong type of mating outlet is present, consult with a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet.
• Does not support major structural components.
• The finished sides of the wall opening should be structural wall members.
• Outside areas are not blocked.
• See “Electrical Requirements" for full detail.
• Structural integrity of the wall must be maintained. Professional installation is strongly
recommended.
