POSSIBLE CAUSE AND REMEDY
●
Not plugged in. Plug may have been bumped loose by vacuum cleaner or furniture.

●
Curtain, blinds or furniture blocking the top or the front of the air conditioner will
restrict air flow.
●
Temperature Control may not be set high enough. Turn knob to a higher number.
Highest setting should provide maximum cooling.
●
Air
dirty, should be cleaned at least every 30 days. See instructions, page 5.

for it to cool down.
●
Cold air maybe escaping through open furnace floor registers and cold
●
Vent Control maybe set at open position, allowing hot outside air to enter the room.
●
Cooling coils have iced up. To melt ice, set the Fan at high speed and the
Control to a lower number.
●
Thermostat click, a metallic sound, maybe heard when the compressor cycles on and
off. This is normal.

Air conditioner must be installed

period in very humid areas. Moisture removed from indoor air drains to rear of cabinet
where it is picked up by a fan and thrown against the outdoor condenser coil.
