Important Safety Information

 

 

Improper handling can cause serious damage to the appliance and/or to the 
user.  
 
This portable air conditioner is not intended for use by children. Children should 
be supervised to ensure that they do not play with this product. 
 

 

Your portable air conditioner is supplied with a Leakage-Current 
Detection and Interruption (LCDI) safety plug. This device provides 
protection to reduce the risk of fire due to arcing faults in the power 
supply cord. Before using your portable air conditioner, follow the 
instructions below to ensure that the LCDI plug is working properly:  
 
1.  Plug the power cord to a grounded outlet. 
2.  Press the TEST button on the LCDI plug. This should trip the 
plug and cut the power to the air conditioner. If the plug does not 
trip and you are able to turn on the unit, please contact EdgeStar 
support. 
 

DO NOT USE YOUR PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER IF THE TEST FAILS. 

 
Press the RESET button to start using your air conditioner.  
 
Do not use the TEST and RESET buttons as an ON/OFF switch.
