Prevent Accidents
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury to persons when using your air
conditioner, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
•
Be sure the electrical service is adequate
for the model you have chosen. This
information can be found on the serial
plate, which is located on the side of the
cabinet and behind the grille.
•
If the air conditioner is to be installed in a
window, you will probably want to clean
both sides of the glass first. If the window
is a triple-track type with a screen panel
included, remove the screen completely
before installation.
•
Be sure the air conditioner has been
securely and correctly installed according
to the separate installation instructions
provided with this manual. Save this
manual and the installation instructions for
possible future use in removing or
reinstalling this unit.
•
When handling the air conditioner, be
careful to avoid cuts from sharp metal fins
on front and rear coils.
Electrical Information
WARNING
The complete electrical rating of your new
room air conditioner is stated on the serial
plate. Refer to the rating when checking the
electrical requirements.
•
Be sure the air conditioner is properly
grounded. To minimize shock and fire
hazards, proper grounding is important.
The power cord is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug for protection
against shock hazards.
•
Your air conditioner must be used in a
properly grounded wall receptacle. If the
wall receptacle you intend to use is not
adequately grounded or protected by a
time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a
qualified electrician install the proper
receptacle.
•
Do not run air conditioner without outside
protective cover in place. This could result
in mechanical damage within the air
conditioner.
•
Do not use an extension cord or an
adapter plug.
WARNING
Avoid fire hazard or electric shock. Do not
use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.
Do not remove any prong from the power
cord.
