Power Cord with
Arc Detection Device
The power cord supplied with this air
conditioner is equipped with an Arc
Detection Device designed to shut off power
to the unit when it senses an arc fault
condition. An arc fault is an unintentional
electrical discharge that occurs when
electrical products or wires are damaged,
aged, or improperly used. An arc fault can be
potentially hazardous if left undetected.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Plug unit only into a grounded
electrical outlet.
• Do not use an extension cord or plug
adapter with this unit.
• Do not operate unit with decorative front
or filter removed.
• Failure to follow these precautions could
result in electrical shock, fire or personal
injury.
• If the air conditioner has a serial plate
rating of 115 volts and greater than 7.5
amps, it must have its own fuse or circuit
breaker, and no other device or unit
should be operated on that fuse or circuit
breaker.
• If the air conditioner has a serial plate
rating of 230 volts, it must have its own
fuse or circuit breaker, and no other
device or unit should be operated on that
fuse or circuit breaker.
• We recommend that a qualified
electrician install unit in accordance with
the National Electrical Code and local
codes and ordinances.
• Use copper conductors of correct wire
gauge and protector size only.
• Do not alter cord or plug end. Do not
remove warning label on cord.
Important Grounding Requirements
• Air conditioner has a three-prong
grounding plug on the power supply cord,
which must be plugged into a properly
grounded three-prong wall receptacle for
your protection against possible shock
hazard. For models up to and including
7.5 amperes, use a grounding type wall
receptacle to match the cord plug.
• For models above 7.5 amperes use a
single outlet grounding type wall
receptacle to match the cord plug.
Additional Safety Precautions
• Do not cut, alter or remove any of the
expanded polystyrene (styrofoam)
inside this air conditioner.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
The fumes can create a fire hazard or
explosion.
• Do not introduce objects in the air
discharge area. This could cause
permanent damage.
• Do not pour liquids on the air
conditioner as this could cause a
malfunction. With the unit unplugged,
use a damp cloth for cleaning the unit.
• Do not use strong solvents to clean
the air conditioner.
• Clean the air conditioner filter every
two weeks to avoid overheating
caused by air obstruction. Do not
operate without filter.
• Do not obstruct the air intake area of
your air conditioner, as this could
cause overheating, thus activating the
unit’s security switch and shutting off
the unit.
• Do not block air circulation to outside
louvers of cabinet.
• Do not block air flow inside with
blinds, curtains, or furniture, or
outside with shrubs, enclosures, or
other buildings.
• Do not run the air conditioner with an
outside protective cover in place. This
could result in fire or mechanical
damage within the air conditioner.
