ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT

Some models require a 115/120-volt AC, 60-Hz grounded outlet protected with a 15-amp time-delay fuse or circuit breaker. The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility of electric shock hazard. If the wall outlet you plan to use is only a 2-prong outlet, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

CAUTION

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Do not change the plug on the power cord of this air conditioner. Aluminium house wiring may present special problems—consult a qualified electrician.

Power saftey module

The 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 stay engaged, discontinue use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.

    NOTE: A minimum clearance of 30” (76.2 cm) from the air conditioner to the wall must be maintained to ensure proper airflow.
  • Maintain a minimum 30” (76.2 cm) clearance around the air conditioner to not block airflow.
  • Keep the air conditioner free of any obstructions such as drapes, curtains, blinds, etc.
  • The exhaust hose should be free of any obstructions.
  • Do not place the air conditioner on an unstable or raised surface because it could fall and cause damage or injury.

CONNECT THE EXHAUST HOSE TO THE WINDOW PANEL

Place the Air Conditioner close to the window ensuring there is at least 20” of clearance from the wall and any other obstructions. Extend the hose so that it reaches the Window Kit. Insert the Exhaust Hose Adapter into the opening in the Window Kit and slide it into the locking position. Ensure that the hose runs straight to the window with no excess extension. Important: The Air Conditioner must be vented to the outside. Do not use a longer hose or extend the hose included with the Air Conditioner or the unit will not cool properly and will overheat.Connecting the exhaust hose to window panel
