with this Window Air Conditioner.

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

TEST

button and then the RESET button while plugged

into the outlet. If the TEST button does not trip or if the

RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue use of the

air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.

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.

USING THE AIR CONDITIONER

Controls

This section explains how to operate this air conditioner.

IMPORTANT:

When you turn off the air conditioner, either at the control

panel or with the remote control, wait at least 3 minutes

before turning it back on. This prevents the compressor

from overloading. This 3 minute delay also applies when

switching from cool mode to fan and back.

NOTE: There is a built in 3 minute delay. You may notice

the compressor might not start right away. This was

designated to protect the unit.

Do not operate your air conditioner in the Cool Mode when

the outside temperature is below 61° F (16° C). This inside

evaporator coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not

operate properly.

NOTE: When the air conditioner is first plugged in, the

LED display will show “88” for 3 seconds. After the air

conditioner is turned on for the first time, the display will

show the temperature 72° F and the fan will automatically

set the Quiet speed and the Mode indicator will show

ENERGY SAVE.

NOTE: To switch the temperature display between

Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C), the air conditioner must

be plugged in and turned on. On the control panel on the

IURQWRIWKHDLUFRQGLWLRQHUSUHVVWKH83DQG'2:1EXWWRQ

at the same time and hold for 3 seconds. Press F/C button

on remote control to switch between Fahrenheit (°F) and

Celsius (°C).

NOTE: Each time this ENERGY STAR qualified air

conditioner is turned on, it will operate in energy save mode

per the EPA requirements. You can select any other mode

to satisfy your needs.

Troubleshooting Tips... Before you call for service

Save time and money! Review the charts on the following pages first and you may not need to call for service.

Problem Possible Cause What To Do

Air conditioner does not

start.

The unit is unplugged. Make sure the air conditioner plug is pushed completely

into the outlet.

The fuse is blown/circuit breaker

is tripped.

Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace

the fuse or reset the breaker.

Power Failure. The unit will automatically restart in the setting last

used after the power is restored.

There is a protective time delay (approximately

3 minutes) to prevent tripping of the compressor

overload. For this reason, the unit may not start normal

cooling for 3 minutes after it is turned back on.

The current interrupter device is

tripped.

Press RESET button located on the power cord plug.

If the RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue

use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified

service technician.

Remote control is not

working

Batteries are dead. Replace the batteries.

Batteries inserted wrong. Make sure batteries are inserted in the correct position.

Air conditioner does not

cool as it should.

Indoor airflow is restricted. Make sure there are not curtains, blinds or furniture

blocking the front of the air conditioner.

The temp control may not be set

properly.

Turn the temperature control to a higher number.

The air filter is dirty. Clean the filter at least every 30 days. See Care and

Cleaning section.

The room may have been hot. When the air conditioner is first turned on, you need to

allow time for the room to cool down.

Cold air is escaping. Check for open furnace registers and cold air returns.

Cooling coils have iced up. See “Air conditioner freezing up” below.

Air conditioner freezing up Ice blocks the air flow and stops

the air conditioner from cooling

the room.

On models with control knobs, set the mode control at

High Fan or High Cool with the Temp at 1 or 2.

Water drips outside Hot, humid weather. This is normal.

Water drips inside The air conditioner is not tilted to

the outside.

For proper disposal, make sure the air conditioner

slants slightly from the case front to the rear.

Water collects in base pan Moisture removed from air and

drain into base pan.

This is normal for a short period in areas with little

humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid

areas.

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.

NOTE: Do not drill hole in the base pan.
