Recommended Ground Method

For your personal safety, this air conditioner must be grounded. This air conditioner is equipped with a 3 prong power supply cord with a grounded plug. To minimize the possibility of electrical shock, the cord must be plugged into a 3 prong outlet and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If a 3 prong outlet is not available, it is the customer’s responsibility to have a properly grounded 3 prong outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

It is the customer’s responsibility:

• To contact a qualified electrician

• To assure that the electrical installation is adequate

and in conformance with the National Electrical Code,

Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association

One Batterymarch Park

Quincy, Massachusetts 02269

ANSI/NFPA 70 - latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances.

LCDI Power Cord and Plug

This air conditioner is equipped with an LCDI (Leakage Current Detection and Interruption) power cord and plug as required by US National Electric Code 440.65. This cord consists of a length of shielded flexible cord with no termination on the load side and a LCDI attachment plug on the line side.

The LCDI power cord and plug will remove the supply source via electrical disconnect (circuit trip) if the nominal current leakage between the cord shield and either load conductor exceeds a predetermined value. The cord will remain deenergized until the devise has been manually reset. This is intended to reduce the risk of a fire in the power cord or combustible materials nearby. The cord shields are not grounded and they must be considered a shock hazards if exposed. The cord shield must not be connected to ground or to any exposed metal.

The test and reset buttons on the LCDI Plug are used to check if the plug is functioning properly. To test the plug:

1. Plug power cord into a wall outlet

2. Press the TEST Button, the circuit should trip and cut all power to the air conditioner

3. Press the RESET button for use

If a test is performed and the indicator light remains ON, the current leakage has been detected. Do not use the air conditioner or attempt to reset the LCDI Plug. Contact Customer Service for troubleshooting recommendations.

INSTALLATION & ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Window Preparation

Please read all instructions prior to installing your air conditioner. Two people are recommended to install this product. If a new electrical outlet is required, have the outlet installed by a qualified electrician before installing the unit.

Before installing the unit, check the dimensions of your window to make sure the air conditioner will fit. This unit is made to fit inside a standard double-hung window. Make sure the window is in good shape and able to firmly hold the needed screws. If not, make repairs prior to installing the unit.

Storm Window Requirements

A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to tilt properly which in turn will keep it from draining properly. To adjust for this, attach a board or piece of wood to the sill. The board or wood piece should have a depth of at least 1 1/2”. Make sure the board or piece of wood is approximately 1/2” higher than the storm window frame. This will allow the air conditioner to tilt enough for proper drainage. (See FIG. 1).

Prior to Installing the Air Conditioner

1. Check for anything that could block airflow. Check the area outside of the window for things such as shrubs, trees, or

2. Check the available electrical outlet. The power supply must be the same as shown on the unit serial nameplate

3. Carefully unpack the air conditioner. Remove all packing material and make sure the floor is protected when remov-
