HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance. The power cord of this
appliance is equipped with a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard 3-prong grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility of
electric shock hazard from this appliance. Power cord includes a current
interrupter device. A test and reset button is provided on the plug case. The
device should be tested on a periodic basis by first pressing the TESTRESET

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the outlet is properly grounded. Where a 2-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The air conditioner
should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a
voltage rating that matches the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits which could
cause a fire hazard from overheated wires. See the Installation Instructions,
Electrical Requirements section for specific electrical connection
requirements.

NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
- You may hear a pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve efficiency.
- You may hear the thermostat click when the compressor cycles on and off.
- Water will collect in the base pan duringhigh humidity or on rainy days. The water may overflow and drip from the outdoor sideof the unit.
- The fan may run even when the compressor does not.
- Water droplets being thrown against the outside coils can make a pinging noise. This helps cool the condenser. You can reduce this noise by removing the subbase water plug.
To ensure maximum efficiency it is recommended to check to ensure the rubber
drain plug is properly inserted. This plug may be removed during operation to
minimize water in the back of the unit; however, removing it will lower the
efficiency of your unit.
