Safety Instructions

Installation Instructions

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.

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.
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.
