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.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

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 ACCIDENTS

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 triple4rack type with a screen panel 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 instructions in 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 careful to avoid cuts from sharp metal fins on front and rear coils.

ELECTRICAL 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 packing sheet of

the back of the sleeve, and packing corner and blue tape of the air conditioner. This could result in

mechanical damage within the air conditioner.

• Do not use an extension cord or an adapter

plug.

_ Avoid fire hazard or electric shock.

Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug. Do not remove any prong from the power cord.

Grounding type wall receptacle

Power supply cord with 3-prong

grounding plug

ENERGY SAVING IDEAS

• 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.

• Glean the air filter as recommended in the

MAINTENANCE section of this manual.

• Proper insulation and weather stripping in your home will help 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.

Do not under any circumstances cut,

remove, or bypass the grounding prong from this plug.

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,24

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.

Fan

You may hear air movement from the fan.

Unit Vibration

The unit may vibrate and make noise

because of poor wail or window construction.

Compressor

The modern high

efficiency compressor may have a high pitched

hum or pulsating noise that cycles on and off.

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 MED 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.
