· This unit is designed for indoor use only. · The air conditioner must be grounded. Incomplete grounding may
result in electric shocks. · The unit must be placed on the horizontal ground to prevent tilting
and sliding. · A grounded breaker (check the product rating) time-delay fuse or
circuit breaker with rated capacity must be installed to avoid possible electric shocks. · Do not install the air conditioner in a place where there is flammable gas or liquid. · If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similar qualified person. · The specification of the fuse are printed on the circuit board, 115V/Hz. · Do not touch the louvers. · Do not attempt to repair the air conditioner by yourself. · In a lightning storm, please cut off the primary power supply switch in order to prevent the machine from damage.

AIR CONDITIONER SAFETY
· Do not use a liquid or corrosive detergent to clean the appliance and do not splash water or other liquids onto it, otherwise it may damage the plastic components, even causing electric shocks.
· Do not operate the unit in a wet room such as the bathroom or laundry rooms.
· Do not touch the unit with wet or damp hands or when barefoot. · If your air conditioner is not fitted with a supply cord and a plug,
an all-pole switch must be installed in the fixed wiring, and the distance between contact should be no less than 3.0 mm (do not use an extension cord.) · Do not pull the unit by the cord. · Do not remove any part of the unit unless instructed by an authorized technician. · Do not move the unit until the power has been cut off. · Do not operate the unit with a damaged plug or a loose socket. · Reset your power supply cord by pressing RESET button on the LCDI plug.

AIR CONDITIONER SAFETY
WARNING
Failure to follow the below precaution could result in electrical shock, fire, or personal injury. 1. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded to a 3 prong outlet. 2. Do not use an extension cord. 3. Do not use an adapter. 4. Do not remove the ground prong.
CAUTION
· Do not block the air inlet or air outlet, otherwise the cooling capacity will be weakened, which could cause the system to stop operating.
· Close the windows and doors, otherwise the cooling capacity will be weakened.
· If the air filter is very dirty, the cooling capacity will be weakened. Please be sure to clean the air filter regularly.
Notice for R410A Models
Refrigerant leakage contributes to climate change. Refrigerant with lower global warming potential (GWP) would contribute less to global warming than a refrigerant with higher GWP, if leaked to the atmosphere. This appliance contains a refrigerant fluid with a GWP equal to [2088]. This means that if a 1 kg of this refrigerant fluid would be leaks to the atmosphere, the impact on global warming would be [2088] times higher than 1 kg of CO , over a period of 100 years. Never try to interfere with the refrigerant circuit or disassemble the product by yourself, always ask a professional.

*If the unit you have bought has the pump drain outlet, as shown below, please drain in this way: Remove the pump drain from the back of the unit, attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the other end of the hose in the drainage way, or other drainage area such as a window.
Note: Make sure the hose is secure and there are no leaks. Direct the hose towards the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flow. Place the end of the hose into the drain, and make sure that the end of the hose is down to let the water flow smoothly.

• When the water level of the bottom tray reaches predetermined level, the digital display area shows “P1” and the WATER FULL indicator light illuminates. Carefully move the unit to a drain location, remove the bottom drain plug, and restart the machine until the P1 symbol disappears. If the error repeats, call for service.
