IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, the user
must read and understand the instructions before
using this product.
WARNING
When using this product, basic
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
lBefore operation, please conrm whether power
specication complies with that on nameplate.

turn off air conditioner and pull out the power plug.
lEnsure that the power cord is undamaged. Do not pull or
drag the power cord to pull out the power plug or move
the air conditioner.
lDo not insert or pull out the power cord with wet hands.
lPlease use grounded power only. Make sure the grounded
power source is reliable. If the supply cord is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorized
service center, or a similarly qualied person in order to
avoid a hazard.
lDo not use this appliance if the power cord is damaged,
if water or refrigerant leaks from the unit, or if the unit
produces a burnt smell or unusual sound during use. Do
not attempt to repair the unit. Take the air conditioner to an
authorized service center or a similarly qualied person in
order to avoid a hazard.
lAvoid wet conditions. Liquid entering the motor could
cause a short circuit or other damage to air conditioner.
lDo not operate heating equipment around the air
conditioner.
lDo not operate the unit in the bathroom or laundry room.
lKeep far away from re, heat sources, ammable or
explosive gases, and other explosive objects.
lKeep children from playing or climbing on the air
conditioner. Do not put or hang dripping objects above
the air conditioner. Do not repair or disassemble the air
conditioner by yourself.
lDo not insert any objects into the air conditioner.
lDo not insert anything into the openings of the air
conditioner. If something is inserted, unplug the unit and
remove the object immediately. If the object can not be
removed, take the unit to an authorized service center.
lDo not use an extension cord with this appliance.
lMaintain and service the air conditioner as described later
in this manual. All other maintenance and service should
be performed by the manufacturer, an authorized service
center, or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a
hazard.
lIf refrigerant leaks or requires discharge during installation,
maintenance, or disassembly, the unit should be serviced
by an authorized service center in compliance with local
laws and regulations.
lChildren should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
lDuring operation, close doors and windows to improve
cooling effect.
lOperate the air conditioner on a smooth at surface to
reduce noise and vibration.
lThis air conditioner is equipped with casters. When rolling
the unit from place to place, ensure the air conditioner is
fully upright and all four casters are contacting the ground.
lDo not operate the air conditioner on an incline or in any
position other than upright. Tilting or tipping the unit can
cause liquid to enter into electrical components. If the
unit tips over, disconnect power immediately and contact
customer service.
lDo not operate in direct sunshine.
REFRIGERANT
WARNING
This unit uses a non-explosive
ammable refrigerant gas, R32, which can be ignited
by re.
The refrigerant used in this unit is the uoride R32, which
is specially cleaned. The refrigerant is considered mildly
ammable and has no odor.
Compared to common refrigerants, R32 is a nonpolluting
refrigerant with no harm to the ozonosphere. The
inuence upon the greenhouse effect is also lower. R32
has very good thermodynamic features and high energy
efciency. The units therefore need less lling.
SAFETY
background

Dirty air lters reduce air ow, decrease unit efciency,
and could prevent the unit from working properly.
The air conditioner has two air lters. One lter is accessible
from the exhaust side and the other is accessible from the
opposite side. The steps for removing and cleaning both
lters are the same.
lUnplug the air conditioner.
lOpen and remove the rear lter door.
lSlide the lter away from the air conditioner unit.
lRinse the rear lter door and lter with water to clean. If
the lter is very dirty, clean it with warm water and a mild
detergent. Do not use harsh chemicals or hot water.
NOTE: Allow the lter to dry completely before placing it
back in the unit.
NOTICE
Allow lters to air dry. Do not
attempt to dry lters with re or forced air. Doing
so could warp the frame of the lter or create a re
hazard.
lReplace the lter and lter door.
CLEANING THE EXHAUST DUCT
lUnplug the air conditioner.
lRemove the exhaust duct from the air conditoner and
window panel as described earlier in the Assembly
sectoin.
lClean the exhaust duct with warm water and a mild
detergent.
lAllow the exhaust duct to dry and then reinstall.
DRAINING COLLECTED WATER
