Electrical Shock Hazard
l
Check with a qualified electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded. Do not modify the
power supply cord plug - if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. Improper
connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result
electrical shock.
l
Do not use an extension cord with this
appliance. Such use may result in a fire,
electrical shock or other personal injury.
. Do not have a fuse in the neutral or
grounding circuit. This could result in a
risk of electrical shock.
A 115 volt, 60 Hz AC only, 15 ampere fused electrical supply is required (time delay fuse or time
delay circuit breaker required). It is recommended
that a separate circuit, serving only this appliance,
be provided for models with serial plate amperes
up through 7.5. A separate circuit is required
for models with serial plate amperes of 7.6
through 12.0.

Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
Recommended grounding method
For your personal safety, this appliance must be
grounded. This air conditioner is equipped with a
power supply cord having a 3-prong grounding
plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding
type wall receptacle, grounded in accordance with
the National Electrical Code, ANSVNFPA 70-1987
(or to the latest), and local codes and ordinances.
If a mating wall receptacle is not available, it is the
personal responsibility of the customer to have a
properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle
installed by a qualified electrician.

Grounding prong
If changing and properly grounding the wall receptacle is impossible and where local codes permit
(consult your electrical inspector), a temporary
adapter may be plugged into the existing 2-prong
wall receptacle to male with the 3-prong power
supply cord. This, however, is not recommended.
If this is done, however, you must connect the
grounded eyelet on the adapter to the wall receptacle cover plate screw and from this same screw,
you must connect a separate copper ground wire
(#14 minimum) to a grounded cold water pipe.
‘Do not ground to a gas supply pipe. Do not
connect to electrical supply until appliance is
grounded. Do not, under any circumslances,
remove the power supply cord grounding prong.
*Cold water pipe must have metal continuity to
electrical ground and not be interrupted by plastic, rubber or other electrically insulating connectors (including water meter or pump) without
adding a jumper wire at these connections.

receptacle and wiring needed.) Do not use an
extension cord.
The sliding window in which you place your air
conditioner should have an opening of at least
15%” wide and 21%” to 40%” high (see diagram).
For installations up to 62%” high, a special kit (Part
No. 977449) is available. For windows as low as
207/re’: you must install without filler frame and
remove top angle on unit, reinstalling 3 screws into
top of cabinet.
This model may also be installed in steel hinged
casement windows. The steel hinged casement
window
