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, rated at 15A, 125V.

Common Problems and Solutions
Common Issues
Before calling for service, please review the following list of common problems and solutions.
The air conditioner is operating normally when:
You hear a pinging noise. This is caused by water being picked up by the condenser on rainy days or in highly humid conditions. This feature is designed to help remove moisture in the air and improve cooling efficiency.
You hear the thermostat click. This is caused by the compressor cycle starting and stopping.
You see water dripping from the rear of the unit. Water may be collected in the base pan in highly humid
conditions or on rainy days. This water overflows and drips from the rear of the unit.
You hear the fan running while the compressor is silent. This is a normal operational feature.
The air conditioner may be operating abnormally when:
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
