4. Do not start/stop operation by plugging/unp!ugging the _wer cord.
5. If the power cord is damaged and r_uires replacement, have an Authorized
Servicer install an exact replacement part.
t. Being exposed to, direct airflow for an extend_ period of time could be
hazardous to your health, Do not expose occupants, pets, o,r plants to direct
aidow for extended periodlsi of time.
2. Due to the _ssibility d oxygen ddiciency, ventilate the room when used
together with stoves or other heating devices.
3, Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified sp_ia! purposes (e,g,
preserving pr_ision devices, food, pets, plants, and art objects). Such usage

We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards.
For temporary connections, use only a UIL°]isted adapter, available from most:
local hardware stores. Ensure that the large sliot in the adapter is aligned with
the large slot in the receptacle for a proper polarity connection.
To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on each to avoid
damaging the ground terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power cord as
this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.

Air Direction
Adjusting the air direction using the
ho,rizontal air deflector conLroL
Using the con_o_ tabs, the air flaw can
be dir_ted to the Ileff, right, straight
ahead, or any ,combination ,of these
directions..
Drain Pipe
In humid weather, excess water may
cause the Base Pan to overflow. To
drain the water, remove the Drain Cap
and secure the Drain Pipe to the rear
hole of the Base Pan.
Press the drain pipe into the ho_e by
pushing down and away from the fins
to avoid injury.
This air ,_nditioner is equipped with a
slinger fan.. (See drawing, bel_:),
The fan has an outer ring that runs in
the water that colliects in the base pan
if it gets deep. That condensate is then
picked up by the fan and expelled
through the _ndenser, making the air
_nditioner more efficient..
DRAIN
Ring
Be careful when in.fling the drain pipe. Push away from
the sharp fin area to avoid slipping injuring yourself.
Removal From Window
Turn the air _nditioner off, disconnect the power cord, remove the L bracket, the
screws and Support Bracket installed through the top, and bosom d the guide
panels, and save for reinstalliation later. Close the guide panels. Keeping a firm grip
on the air conditioner, raise the sash, and carefully tilt the air conditioner back.ward,
draining any condensate. Lift the air conditioner from the window and remove the
sash seal from between the windows.
Be sure to drain ALL condensate from the air conditioner. If you don't, it could run
out while you carry the unit,making a mess and creating a slipping hazard. This
s[mp,ie step wiii] save you much ,cleaning and make a safer work environment.

MaintenanceandService
Air Filter
Ch_k the air filter at least _ice a month to see if cleaning is necessary: Trapp_
particles in the filter can build up and block the airflow, reducing _oling capacity
and causing an a_umulation of frost on the eva_rator. To clean the air filter:
1. Remove the air filter from the front grille by lifting the air fitter up.
2, Wash the fitter using lukewarm water betow 40" C (1i04 ° F),
3, Gently shake the ex_ss water from the filter and replace.
Cleaning The Air Conditioner
The front grille and inlet grille may be
wip_ with a cloth dampened in a mild
detergent solution.
The cabinet may be wasihed with mild
soap or detergent andi lukewarm
water, then _lish_ with Liquid Wax
for Appliances.
To ensure continued peak efficiency,
the condenser coils (outside of uni0
should be checked periodically and
cleaned if clogg_ with s_t or dirt
from the atm,osphere_
HOW TO REMOVE THE FRONT GRILLE
i. Remove the screws s_uring the Front Grille
2. Push the grille up from the bottom and pull
the top of the grille away from the case as
