Power Supply Cord
NOTE: Your air conditioner's device may differ from the one shown.
This room air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord required by UL. This power supply cord contains state-of-the-art electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is crushed, the electronics detect leakage current and power will be disconnected in a fraction of a second.
To test your power supply cord:
- Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
- Press RESET (on some devices. a green light will turn on).
- Press TEST (listen for click; Reset button will trip. and on some devices. a green light will turn off)
- Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch. and on some devices. a green light will turn on). The power supply cord is ready for operation.
NOTES
- The Reset button must be pushed in for proper operation
- The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the test button is pressed or fails to reset
- Do not use the power supply cord as an off/on switch. The power supply cord is designed as a protective device
- A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be repaired
- The power supply cord contains no user serviceable parts. Opening the tamper-resistant case voids all warranty and performance claims.
