H OW  TO  U S E

Refer to the Installation Instructions included in
this manual before using the air conditioner. 

Once the air conditioner has been properly
assembled and installed: 

Plug the power cord into its own dedicated
properly grounded outlet. You will hear a
tone to confirm that the conditioner is
plugged in. Do not plug other appliances
into the same outlet; it could overload the
outlet and create a fire hazard.

Make sure the air conditioner and cord is
positioned where it does not create a
tripping hazard and will receive adequate
ventilation. Do not place it directly next to
furniture or objects that could block the 
vent openings. 

Make sure that any items that could be
blown over or damaged by the airflow from
the fan are out of the airflow path.

plants, make sure they are not exposed to
direct airflow from the air conditioner.

• When used at the same time as stoves,

fireplaces, and other combustion devices,
make sure there is a sufficient flow of fresh air
into the room. Do 

not

use in tightly enclosed

spaces with these types of devices.

• This air conditioner is intended for household

use as a consumer comfort appliance. Do

or for purposes such as cooling precision
equipment, food, pets, plants, artwork, etc.
Such items could be damaged.

cause failure of air conditioner or performance
deterioration.

IMPORTANT:

Remove and store packing materials for reuse.

Remove any shipping tape before using the 
air conditioner. If the tape leaves behind any
adhesive, rub a small amount of liquid dish 
soap onto it and wipe with a damp cloth. Do
NOT use sharp instruments, alcohol, thinners, 
or abrasive cleaners to remove adhesive. 
They could damage the finish.
