Recommended Ground Method 

For your personal safety, this air conditioner must be grounded. This air conditioner is equipped with a 3 prong power 
supply cord with a grounded plug. To minimize the possibility of electrical shock, the cord must be plugged into a 3 prong 
outlet and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If a 3 prong outlet is not available, it is the cus-
tomer’s responsibility to have a properly grounded 3 prong outlet installed by a qualified electrician. 

LCDI Power Cord and Plug 

This air conditioner is equipped with an LCDI (Leakage Current Detection and Interruption) power cord that is required 
by UL. This power supply cord contains state-of-the-art electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is damaged 
and leakage occurs, power will be disconnected from the unit. 

 

The test and reset buttons on the LCDI Plug are used to check if the plug is functioning properly. To test the plug:  
1.  Plug power cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet 
2.  Press RESET (on some units a green light will turn on). 
3.  Press the TEST Button, the circuit should trip and cut all power to the air conditioner (on some units a green light 

may turn off. 

4.  Press the RESET button for use. You will hear a click and the A/C is not ready for use. 

 

NOTES

The RESET button must be engaged for proper use. 

• 

The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the TEST button is pressed and the unit fails to reset. 

•
