• Connect to the power source properly. Excessive heat generation caused by failure to do so may result in
electric shock or fire.
• Do not operate or stop the unit by switching the power source on or off.
• Do not use a damaged or unspecified power cord. It may result in electric shock or fire.
• Modifying the power cord length or sharing the outlet with other appliances may result in electric shock
or fire.
• Operating the unit with wet hands or in a damp environment may result in electric shock.
• Always ground the unit properly. Improper grounding may result in electric shock.
• Allowing water to contact electric parts may cause failure of unit or electric shock.
• Always install a dedicated circuit and breaker. Improper wiring or installation may result in fire or
electric shock.
• Turn off the circuit breaker or disconnect the power source if strange sounds, smells or smoke come from
the unit.
• Do not drink water drained from the air conditioner.
• Opening the unit during operation may result in electric shock.
• Use the correctly rated circuit breaker.
• Do not place a heater or other appliances near the power cable.
• Do not disassemble or modify unit.
• If flammable gas leaks, turn off the gas and open a window to ventilate the room before turning on the unit.
• Do not store or use flammable gas or combustibles near the unit.
• Do not clean the air conditioner with water. Water may enter the unit and degrade the insulation, resulting
in electric shock.
• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the unit and the circuit breaker. Cleaning the unit when the power is on
may result in electric shock or injury.
• Do not place caged animals or house plants where they will be exposed to direct airflow.
• Do not use this unit for special purposes, such as preserving food or works of art. It is a consumer air
conditioner, not a precision refrigeration system.
• Placing obstacles around the air inlets or inside the air outlets may result in fire or failure of the appliance.
• If the appliance will be inactive for an extended period of time, disconnect the power source by turning off
the circuit breaker.
• Use a soft cloth and do not use strong detergents or solvents to clean the unit.
• Ensure that the installation bracket of the outdoor appliance is not damaged by prolonged exposure to
the environment.
• Always insert air filters securely. Clean the filter every two weeks. Operating the unit without the filter will
cause failure. (See page 6 for cleaning instructions.)
• Do not place heavy objects on or compress the power cord in any way.
• Use caution when unpacking and installing the unit. Sharp edges could cause injury.
• If water enters the unit, turn the unit off, disconnect the power and contact a licensed professional.
