Prior to Operation
Prior to Operation
Preparing
for
Operation
1.Contact an installation specialist for installation.
2.Plug in the power plug properly.
3.Use a dedicated circuit.
4.Do not use an extension cord.
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.
Usage
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.
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.
Cleaning
and
Maintenance
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 unit’s power is accidentally triggered on while cleaning inner parts of the unit.
Service
For repair and maintenance, contact your authorized service dealer.

Electrical Safety
Electrical Safety
WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug. To minimize the risk of electric shock, use the plug with a standard three-slot grounding wall power outlet. If the power outlet does not include a grounding slot, have a qualified electrician replace the outlet before you use the room air conditioner.
Preferred method
Ensure proper ground exists before use
WARNING: Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug.
WARNING: 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.
WARNING: If you have any doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician.

Temporary
Use
of
an
Adapter
We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards. For temporary connections, use only a UL-listed adapter, available from most local hardware stores. Ensure that the large slot in the adapter is aligned with the large slot in the receptacle for a proper polarity connection.
To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on each to avoid damaging the ground terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power cord as this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.

Installation
How
to
Install
the
Unit
1.To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed securely and firmly
2.Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine directly on the unit.
3.The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for at least 14" and there should be no obstacles, such as a fence or wall, within 20" from the back of the cabinet because it will prevent heat radiation of the condenser. Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
Cooled air
30"~60"
Awning Fence
Heat radiation
About 1/4"
Over 20"
ENGLISH
NOTICE All side louvers of the cabinet must remain exposed to the outside of the structure.
4.Install the unit at a slight incline so the back is slightly lower than the front(about 1/4"). This will force condensed water to flow to the outside.
5.Install the unit with the bottom about 30"~60" above the floor level.
Horizontal
Sliding Window
Installation
1.Loosely attach the Support Bracket to the bottom of Bracket using Bolts, Washer, and Nuts. Attach the Leveling Bolt and Nut. (Fig. 1)
