Quick Setup Guide
WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow these instructions can result in electric
shock, fire, or death.
•
This unit must be properly grounded.
•
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the
grounding plug.
•
If you do not have a properly grounded AC outlet, or if
there is any doubt that the outlet is not properly
grounded, a qualified electrician should check the outlet
and circuit and, if necessary, install a properly grounded
outlet.
•
This air conditioner must be plugged into a grounded
115V, 60 Hz AC outlet, protected by a 15 amp time-delay
fuse or circuit breaker.
•
This air conditioner must be installed in accordance with
national wiring codes.
•
Do not alter or modify the plug or cord of this air
conditioner.
If the power cord becomes worn or damaged,
the cord should only be replaced by a qualified service
technician using genuine replacement parts.
•
Do not use an extension cord.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Integrated circuit breaker
For additional safety, the power cord on this air conditioner
features an integrated circuit breaker. You can test and reset the
circuit breaker using the buttons provided on the plug case.
Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as
to whether the air conditioner is properly grounded.
The circuit breaker should be tested periodically by pressing the
TEST
button, then pressing the
RESET
button. If the
TEST
button does not cause the circuit breaker to trip, or if the
RESET
button does not stay engaged, unplug the air conditioner
immediately and contact an Insignia technician.
Preferred grounding method
Temporary grounding
Due to potential safety hazards, we strongly discourage
the use of an adapter plug.
If an adapter plug must be used
for a temporary connection, use only a UL-listed adapter. The
minimum capacity for 10,000 BTU is 120V, 60Hz, 13A, and
1560W, and for 12,000 BTU is 120V, 60Hz, 15A, and 1800W.
Make sure that the large slot of the adapter is aligned with the
large slot in the outlet.
To prevent damage to the adapter’s ground terminal, hold
the adapter in place while plugging or unplugging the air
conditioner.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle
cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover
screw is metal and not insulated and the wall receptacle is
grounded through the house wiring.
Frequent connection and disconnection can damage the
ground terminal on the adapter. Never use a broken or
damaged adapter.
