Important Safety
Instructions

before
using this
When using this appliance, always
exercise basic safety precautions,
including the following:
●
Use this appliance only for its
intended purpose as described in
this Use and Care Guide.
●
This air conditioner must be
properly installed in accordance
with the Installation Instructions
before it is used. See grounding
instructions on page 3.
●
Never unplug
air conditioner
by pulling on
power cord.
Always grip plug firmly and pull
straight out from the receptacle.
●
Repair or replace immediately
all electric service cords that
have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that
shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either the
plug or connector end.
INSTRUCTIONS
●
Keep the air filter clean. (See
instructions on page 6.)
●
For most efficient cooling, keep
vent in closed position except when
you want to exhaust air, smoke or
odors from the room.
●
Don’t let the room get too hot or
too cold. Whenever possible, turn
the unit on before the room heats
up or cools down.
●
Keep windows and doors
closed. Conditioned air escapes
when they’re open.
●
Keep furnace floor registers and
cold air returns closed. Conditioned
air can easily escape through them.
●
Don’t block front of unit when it
is operating. Curtains or drapes
blocking it will restrict air flow.
●
It’s best to operate your air
conditioner at high speed during
extremely hot or cold weather.
. Keep outdoor condenser coil
clean. (See page 6.)
Turn air conditioner off before
vacations or extended absences
from home.
Save time and money.
