Before Operation

1. Contact an installation specialist for installation. This is NOT a do-it-yourself project.

2. Plug in the power plug properly.

3. Use a dedicated circuit.

4. Do not use an extension cord. Consult a professional installer or electrician.

5. Do not start/stop operation by plugging/unplugging the power cord.

6. If the cord/plug is damaged, replace it with only an authorized replacement part.

1. Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be hazardous to your health. Do not expose occupants, pets, or plants to direct airflow for extended periods of time. In other words, don't sit in the draft.

2. Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate the room when used together with stoves or other heating devices.

3. Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified special purposes (e.g. preserving precision devices, food, pets, plants, and art objects). Such usage could damage the items.

1. Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can occur when handling sharp metal edges.

2. Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation, leading to possible electric shock.

3. When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned off. The fan rotates at a very high speed during operation. There is a possibility of injury if the unitʼs power is accidentally triggered on while cleaning inner parts of the unit.

For repair and maintenance, contact your authorized service dealer.

Electrical Safety

IMPORTANT (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)

FOR THE USER'S PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug. Use this with a standard three-slot (grounding) wall power outlet to minimize the hazard of electric shock. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER PLUG.

A. SITUATIONS WHEN THE APPLIANCE WILL BE

DISCONNECTED OCCASIONALLY

Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly discourage the use of an adapter plug. However, if you wish to use an adapter, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made. Use UL-listed adapter, available from most local hardware stores. The large slot in the adapter must be aligned with the large slot in the receptacle to assure a proper polarity connection.

Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring. The customer should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly grounded.

Disconnect the power cord from the adapter, using one hand on each. Otherwise, the adapter ground terminal might break. DO NOT USE the appliance with a broken adapter plug.

B. SITUATIONS WHEN THE APPLIANCE WILL BE

DISCONNECTED OFTEN

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations. Unplugging the power cord frequently can lead to an eventual breakage of the ground terminal. The wall power outlet should be replaced by a three-slot (grounding) outlet instead.

USE OF EXTENSION CORDS

Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly discourage the use of an extension cord. However, if you wish to use an extension cord, use a CSA certified/UL-listed 3-wire (grounding) extension cord.

Installation

How to Install the Unit

• Need 2 people to lift up air conditioner, it is HEAVY.

For existing sleeve, you should measure the wall sleeve dimensions. You can install the new air conditioner according to these installation instructions to achieve the best performence. All wall sleeves used to mount the new air conditioner must be in good structural condition and have the rear grille that securely attached to the sleeve or the flange of the sleeve to secure the new air conditioner.

• To avoid vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed securely and firmly.

When installing the sleeve & Front grille, make certain there is

nothing within 21 ” back & front of sleeve & front grille, that

would interfere with heat radiation and exhaust air flow.

• Before installation, Check the insulation on the inner side of the sleeve. If there is no insulation, place the insulation.

• Check the bottom corner's joint gap of the sleeve, If there is, fill the gap with putty.

• VENTILATION

The ventilation lever is located to the lower left side of the unit. The ventilation lever must be in the CLOSE position in order to maintain the best cooling & heating conditions. When fresh air is necessary in the room, set the ventilation lever to the OPEN position. The Ventilation door is opened and outdoor air is drawn into the room. This will reduce the cooling or heating efficiency.

When the air conditioner has been running and is turned off or set to the fan position, wait at least 3 minutes before resetting to the cooling & heating

operations.

Note:

A slight heat odor may come from the unit when first switching to HEAT after the cooling season is over. This odor, caused by fine dust particles on the heater, will disappear quickly. This is harmless.
