1. Plug in the power _rd properly:

2. Use a dedicated circuit. Overloading the line could create a fire hazard..

3, Do not use an extension cord. S_ page i 1 for more details.

4. Do not start/stop operation by plugging/unplugging the power cord.

5. if the power cord is damag_ and requires replacement, have an Authorized

Servi_r install an replacement paM.

1. Being exposed to direct airflow for an emended period of time could be

hazardous to your health. Do not expose occupants, pets, or plants to .direct

airflow for nded periods of time.

2. Due to the possibii_y of oxygen deficiency, ventiiate the room when used

t_ether w_h stoves or other heating devices.

3. Do not use this air conditioner for non-sp_ifi_ specia_ purposes (e.g.

preserving precision devices, food, pets, piants, and art objeds). Such usage

_uid damage the items.

4. The air conditioner is a consumer comfo_ appliance, not a precision climate

control system.

i. Do not touch the metai parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can

occur when handling sharp metal edges.

2. Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Ex_sure to water can

destroy the insulation, Ieading to possible electric shock.

3, When cleaning the un_, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned

off. The fan rotates at a ve_ high speed during operation. There is a

poseibili_ of injuPj ff the unit's _wer is accidentally triggered on while
