Before Operadon

i Plug in the power cord properly.

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

3. Do not use an extension cord. See page 10 for more detaills.

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

could damage the items.

4. The air _nditioner is a consumer ,comfort appliance, not a precision climate

control system.

i. Do not touch the metal 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. Exposure to water can

destroy the insulation, leading to possible elec_-ic shock,

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

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

possibility of injury if the unit's _wer is a_i,dentally triggered on while

cleaning inner parts d the unit,

For repair and maintenance, _ntact an A uthoriz_ Service Center. See the

warranty page for details or call (8,00) 243-0000. Have your model number and

serial number available. They should be wri_en on page 2 of this manual.

Electrical Safety

WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a threeoprong grounding plug.

To minimize the risk of electric shock, use the plug with a standard three-slot

grounding wall power outlet. If the power outlet does not include a grounding slot,

have a qualified electrician replace the outlet before you use the room air

Electd,_lSafety

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

the top tabs lift out of their slots.
