WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove
ground prong. Do not use an adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Recommended Grounding Method
This air conditioner must be grounded. This air conditioner is equipped with a
power supply cord with a three-prong grounding plug. The cord must be plugged
into a mating, grounded three-prong outlet, grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the
customer’s responsibility to have a properly grounded three-prong outlet
installed by a qualified electrical installer.
It is the customer’s responsibility:
To contact a qualified electrical installer. To assure that the electrical
installation is adequate and conforms to the Nation Electrical Code,ANSI/NFPA
70-last edition,and all local codes and ordinances.

RESET TEST
A. Test button B. Reset button NOTE: Your air conditioner’s device may differ
from the one shown. This room air conditioner is equipped with a power supply
cord required by UL. This power supply cord contains state-of-the-art
electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is crushed, the
electronics detect leakage current and power will be disconnected in a
fraction of a second.
To test your power supply cord: 1. Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3
prong outlet.
2. Press RESET (on some devices, a green light will turn on).
3. Press TEST (listen for click; Reset button will trip, and on some devices,
a green light will turn off).
4. Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch, and on
some devices, a green light will turn on). The power supply cord is ready for
operation.
NOTE:
The Reset button must be pushed in for proper operation.
The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the test
button is pressed or fails to reset.
Do not use the power supply cord as an off/on switch. The power supply cord is
designed as a protective device.
A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord
obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired.
The power supply cord contains no user serviceable parts. Opening the tamper-
resistant case voids all warranty and performance claims.

AIR CONDITIONER CARE
Your new air conditioner is designed to give you many years of dependable service. This section tells you how to clean and care for your air conditioner properly. Call your local authorized dealer for an annual checkup. Remember the cost of this service call is your responsibility.
Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps remove
dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important for best cooling
and operating ef ficiency. Check the filter every 2 weeks to see whether it
needs cleaning.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in place.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Open the front panel. Grasp the filter by the center and pull up and out.
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the air filter. If the air filter is very
dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash the air filter
in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners. Air dry the filter completely
before replacing to ensure maximum efficiency.
4. Replace the air filter back into the air conditioner, and colse the front
panel.
Cleaning the Front Panel
1. Turn off the air conditioner. 2. Clean the front panel with a soft, damp
cloth.
3. Air dry the front panel completely.
Repairing Paint Damage
Check once or twice a year for paint damage. This is very important,
especially in areas near oceans or where rust is a problem. If needed, touch
up with a good grade enamel paint.
Annual Maintenance
Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure steady, top
performance throughout the year. Call your local authorized dealer to schedule
an annual checkup. The expense of an annual inspection is your responsibility.
13
TROUBLESHOOTING
Before calling for service, try the suggestions below to see whether you can
solve your problem without outside help.
Air conditioner will not operate
Electrical Shock Hazard WARNING
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an
adapter. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
The power supply cord is unplugged. Plug into grounded 3 prong outlet. See
“Electrical Requirements”.
The power supply cord has tripped (Reset button has popped out). Press and
release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch and on some devices,
a green light will turn on) to resume operation.
A household fuse has blown, or circuit breaker has tripped. Replace the fuse
or reset the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
See “Electrical Requirements”.
The Power button has not been pressed. Press the Power button.
The local power has failed. Wait for power to be restored.
Air conditioner blows fuses or trips circuit breakers
Too many appliances are being used on the same circuit. Unplug or relocate
appliances that share the same circuit.
Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker of the wrong capacity is being used.
Replace with a time-delay fuse or circuit breaker of the correct capacity. See
“Electrical Requirements”.
An extension cord is being used.Do not use an extension cord with this or any
other appliance.
You are trying to restart the air conditioner too soon after turning off the
air conditioner. Wait at least 3 minutes after turning off the air conditioner
before trying to restart the air conditioner.
Air conditioner power supply cord trips (Reset button pops out)
Disturbances in your electrical current can trip (Reset button will pop out)
the power supply cord. Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button
will latch and on some devices, a green light will turn on) to resume
operation.
Electrical overloading, overheating, cord pinching or aging can trip (Reset
button will pop out) the power supply cord. After correcting the problem,
press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch and on some
devices, a green light will turn on) to resume operation.
NOTE: A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply
cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired.
Air conditioner seems to run too much
The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The use of more efficient
components may cause the air conditioner to run longer than an older model,
but the total energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not
emit the “blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to from older air
conditioners, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling capacity or
efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and capacity rating (in
Btu/h) marked on the air conditioner.
The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heatproducing appliances
are in use in the room. Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try
not to use heatproducing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A
higher capacity air conditioner may be required, depending on the size of the
room being cooled.
Air conditioner cycles on and off too much or does not cool
The air conditioner is not properly sized for your room. Check the cooling
capabilities of your room air conditioner. Room air conditioners are not
designed to cool multiple rooms.
The filter is dirty or obstructed by debris.Clean the filter.
The inside evaporator and outside condenser coils are dirty or obstructed by
debris. See Annual Maintenance.
There is excessive heat or moisture (open container cooking, showers, etc.) in
the room. Use a fan to exhaust heat or moisture from the room. Try not to use
heatproducing appliances during the hottest part of the day.
The louvers are blocked. Install the air conditioner in a location where the
louvers are free from curtains, blinds, furniture, etc.
14
The temperature of the room you are trying to cool is extremely hot. Allow
extra time for the air conditioner to cool off a very hot room.
Windows or doors to the outside are open. Close all windows and doors.
The Temp control is not at a cool enough setting. Adjust the Temp control to a
cooler setting by pressing the minus button to reduce the temperature. Set the
Fan Speed control to the highest setting.
Water drips from cabinet into your house
The air conditioner is not properly leveled. The air conditioner should slope
slightly downward toward the outside. Level the air conditioner to provide a
downward slope toward the outside to ensure proper drainage. See the
Installation Instructions.
NOTE: Do not drill a hole in the bottom of the metal base and condensate pan.
