■ Evaporator (inside) and condenser
coils are clean.
Firmly plug power cord into electrical
outlet. Check circuit voltage at fuse/
circuit breaker box.
Turn System Control to a 'Cool' position.
Set Thermostat Control to a higher
number.
Replace fuse with a time-delay fuse of
the correct capacity. Reset circuit

Normal operating
sounds.
You can expect to hear the following
sounds when your air conditioner is
operating:
■ Excessive moisture or heat from
cooking or showers is in cooling area.
■ Fan setting is too low.
■ Thermostat setting is at high enough
number to cause the air conditioner to
cool room.
■ Droplets of water hitting the
condenser causing a 'pinging' or
'clicking' sound. Water from normal
operation or rainfall does not harm
components, so you should not be
concerned.
Use exhaust venting fans to remove
moisture or heat from cooling area.
Set fan setting to a higher speed.
Set Thermostat Control to a higher
number.
■ Air movement from the fan occurs
especially at high fan-speed settings.
■ Vibration sounds can be caused by
wall construction or mounting for the
air conditioner.
