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.

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.

Set the mode control to High Fan or High Cool with the 

temperature setting as high as it can be set.

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.

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.
