IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The safety instructions below will tell you how to use your room air conditioner to avoid harm to yourself or
damage to your ROOM AIR CONDITIONER.
_!_V_Vl:!;t_ll_[_lFORYOUR 8AFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors
and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Read product labels for flammability and other warnings.
_PREVENT ACCIDENT8
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to
persons when using your air conditioner, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
• Be sure the electrical service is adequate for the model
you have chosen.
• If the air conditioner is to be installed in a window, you
will probably want to clean both sides of the glass first. If
the window is a triple-track type with a screen panei
included, you may want to remove the screen
completely before installation.
• Be sure the air conditioner has been securely and
correctly installed according to the separate installation
instructions provided with this manual. Save this manual
and installation instructions for possible future use in
removing or reinstalling this unit.
• Use gloves when handling the air conditioner. Be carefuI
to avoid cuts from sharp metal fins on front and rear coils.
V!_v,TI.,I;i#II_[_IELECTRICAL INFORMATION
The complete electrical rating of your new room air
conditioner is stated on the serial plate. Refer to the rating
when checking the electrical requirements.
• Be sure the air conditioner is properly grounded. To
minimize shock and fire hazards, proper grounding is
important. The power cord is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug for protection against shock
hazards.
• Your air conditioner must be plugged into a properly
grounded wall receptacle. If the wall receptacle you
intend to use is not adequately grounded or protected by
a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified
electrician install the proper receptacle.
• Do not run air conditioner with a protective covering.
This could result in mechanical damage within the air
conditioner.

ENERGY SAVING IDEA8
• The capacity of the room air conditioner must fit the
room size for efficient and satisfactory operation.
• Install the room air conditioner on the shady side of your
home. A window that faces north is best because it is
shaded most of the day.
• Do not block air flow inside with blinds, curtains, or
furniture; or outside with shrubs, enclosures, or other
buildings.
• Close the floor and wall registers and the fireplace
damper so cool air does not escape up the chimney and
into the duct work.
• Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed during
the sunniest part of the day.
• Clean the air filter as recommended in the
MAINTENANCE section of this manual.
• Proper insulation and weather stripping in your home wilI
heip keep warm air out and cool air in.
• External house shading with trees, plants or awnings will
help reduce the air conditioner's work load.
• Operate heat producing appliances such as ranges,
washers, dryers, and dishwashers during the coolest
part of the day.

HOW AND WHY
Your room air conditioner provides the following
functions to make hot weather living more
comfortable:
• Cools and circulates room air.
• Lowers humidity by removing excess moisture.
• Filters out summertime dust, dirt, and some
airborne impurities.
The air conditioner performs these functions by
drawing room air through a filter which traps dust
and dirt particles. The air then passes over a
cooling coil which refrigerates the air and removes
excess moisture. The same air is then returned to
the room- cooler, drier, and cleaner. Moisture
removed from the room air is carried to the outside
and evaporated.
Your air conditioner is designed to be easy to
operate and to provide plenty of cooling power.
NORMAL SOUNDS FIG.12
Aside from the regular fan motor and compressor
sounds coming from your air conditioner, you will
once in a while hear a pinging sound. This is the
result of moisture being picked up from the air in the
room and thrown against the air conditioner's fan.
This is normal and should not be cause for concern.
Also, do not be alarmed if you hear a slight hissing or
gurgling sound coming from your air conditioner after
it is off. These are normal coolant noises.
Compressor
The modern high efficiency
compressor may have a high
pitched hum or pulsating
noise that cycles on and off.
Fan
You may hear air
movement from the
fan.
Unit Vibration
The unit may vibrate
and make noise
because of poor wall
or window
construction.
Condenser
You may hear
droplets of water
hitting the condenser,
causing a pinging or
clicking sound.
CAPACITY AND RUNNING TIME
Proper unit size is important in deciding the desired
comfort for the area you want to cool. The proper
size is determined by the number of square feet in
the area to be cooled.
Whenever the heat or humidity load is above normal
the air conditioner must run longer and more often
to keep the desired temperature you have selected,
Under heavy heat load conditions the air conditioner
may need to run constantly to keep the temperature
you want.
At times using the HIGH FAN setting to circulate the
room air may make it comfortable even though you
do not have the air conditioner set to cool the air.
This will decrease your cost of use.

USING THE AIR CONDITIONER
_To reduce the risk of fire, electdc
shock, or injury to persons, read the important
SAFETY instructions section before operating this
appliance.
To begin operating the air conditioner after
installation, follow these steps:
1. Plug in the air conditioner. (To prevent electrical
hazards, do not use an extension cord or an
adapter plug.)
2. Set the TEMP control to the lowest number.
3. Set the MODE control to the COOL.
4. Adjust the air direction control tabs for
comfortable air flow.
5. Once the room has cooled, adjust the TEMP and
FAN SPEED control to the setting you find most
comfortable.
NOTE : if the air conditioner is turned off, wait 3
minutes before restarting. This allows pressure
inside the compressor to equalize. Failure to wait 3
minutes before restarting may cause inefficient
operation.
If you move the TEMP control to a warmer, then
immediately back to a cooler setting, the
compressor will shut off, although the fan will
continue to run. Wait 3 minutes before restarting.
