IMPORTANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
The
safety
instructions
below
will
tell
you
how
to
use
your
room
air
conditioner
to
avoid
harm
to
yourself
or
damage
to
your
ROOM
AIR
CONDITIONER.
FOR
YOUR
SAFETY
Do
not
store
or
use
gasoline
or
other
flammable
vapors
and
liquids
in
the
vicinity
of
this
or
any
other
appliance.
Read
product
labels
for
flammability
and
other
warnings.
PREVENT
ACCIDENTS
To
reduce
the
risk
of
fire,
electrical
shock,
or
injury
to
persons
when
using
your
air
conditioner,
follow
basic
precautions,
including
the
following:
?
Be
sure
the
electrical
service
is
adequate
for
the
model
you
have
chosen.
?
If
the
air
conditioner
is
to
be
installed
in
a
window,
you
will
probably
want
to
clean
both sides
of
the
glass
first.
If
the
window
is
a
triple-track
type
with
a
screen
panel
included,
you
may
want
to
remove
the
screen
completely
before
installation.
?
Be
sure
the
air
conditioner
has
been
securely
and
correctly
installed
according
to
the
separate
installation
instructions
provided
with
this
manual.
Save
this
manual and
installation
instructions
for
possible
future
use
in
removing
or
reinstalling
this
unit.
?
Use
gloves
when
handling
the
air
conditioner.
Be
careful
to
avoid
cuts
from
sharp
metal
fins
on
front
and
rear
coils.
ELECTRICAL
INFORMATION
The
complete
electrical
rating
of
your
new
room
air
conditioner
is
stated
on
the
serial
plate.
Refer
to
the
rating
when
checking
the
electrical
requirements.
?
Be
sure
the
air
conditioner
is
properly
grounded.
To
minimize
shock
and
fire
hazards,
proper
grounding
is
important.
The
power
cord
is
equipped
with
a
three-prong
grounding
plug
for
protection
against
shock
hazards.
?
Your
air
conditioner
must
be
plugged
into
a
properly
grounded
wall
receptacle.
If
the
wall
receptacle
you
intend
to
use
is
not
adequately
grounded
or
protected
by
a
time
delay
fuse
or
circuit
breaker,
have
a
qualified
electrician
install
the
proper
receptacle.
?
Do
not
run
air
conditioner
with
a
protective
covering.
This
could
result
in
mechanical
damage
within
the
air
conditioner.
?
Do
not
use an
extension
cord
or
an
adapter
plug.
ENERGY
SAVING
IDEAS
?
The
capacity
of
the
room
air
conditioner
must
fit
the
room
size
for
efficient
and
satisfactory
operation.
?
Install
the
room
air
conditioner
on
the
shady
side
of
your
home.
A
window
that
faces
north
is
best
because
it
is
shaded
most
of
the
day.
?
Do
not
block
air
flow
inside
with
blinds,
curtains,
or
furniture,
or
outside
with
shrubs,
enclosures,
or
other
buildings.
?
Close
the
floor
and
wall
registers
and
the
fireplace
damper
so
cool
air
does
not
escape
up
the
chimney
and
into
the
duct
work.
?
Keep
blinds
and
drapes
in
other
windows
closed
during
the
sunniest
part
of
the
day.
?
Clean
the
air
filter
as
recommended
in
the
MAINTENANCE
section
of
this
manual.
?
Proper
insulation
and
weather
stripping
in
your
home
will
help
keep
warm
air
out
and
cool
air
in.
?
External
house
shading
with
trees,
plants
or
awnings
will
help
reduce
the
air
conditioner's
work
load.
?
Operate
heat
producing
appliances
such
as
ranges,
washers,
dryers,
and
dishwashers
during
the
coolest
part
of
the
day.
Avoid
fire
hazard
or
electric
shock.
Do
not
use
an
extension
cord
or
an
adapter
plug.
Do
not
remove
any
prong
from
the
power
cord.
Do
not
under
any
circumstances
cut,
remove,
or
bypass
the
grounding
prong
from
this
plug.

CAUTION
INSTALLATION
Pick
a
location
which
will
allow
you
to
blow
the
cold
air
into
the
area
you
want.
Windows
used
for
installation
must
be
strong
enough
to
support
the
weight
of
the
air
conditioner.
Good
installation
with
special
attention
to
the

Air
conditioners
covered
in
this
manual
pose
an
excessive
weight
hazard.
Two
or
more
people
are
needed
to
move
and
install
the
unit.
To
prevent
injury
or
strain,
use
proper
lifting
and
carrying
techniques
when
moving
unit.
?
When
handling
the
air
conditioner,
be
careful
to
avoid
cuts

sharp
metal
fins

?
Make

removal.
CAUTION
HOW
AND
WHY
Your
room
air
conditioner
provides
the
following
functions
to
make
hot
weather
living
more
comfortable:
?
Cools
and
circulates
room
air.
?
Lowers
humidity
by
removing
excess
moisture.
?
Filters
out
summertime
dust,
dirt,
and
some
airborne
impurities.
The
air
conditioner
performs
these
functions
by
drawing
room
air
through
a
filter
which
traps
dust
and
dirt
particles.
The
air
then
passes
over
a
cooling
coil
which
refrigerates
the
air
and
removes
excess
moisture.
The
same
air
is
then
returned
to
the
room--
cooler,
drier,
and
cleaner.
Moisture
removed
from
the
room
air
is
carried
to
the
outside
and
evaporated.
Your
air
conditioner
is
designed
to
be
easy
to
operate
and
to
provide
plenty
of
cooling
power.
NORMAL
SOUNDS
FIG.
23
Aside
from
the
regular
fan
motor
and
compressor
sounds
coming
from
your
air
conditioner,
you
will
once
in
a
while
hear
a
pinging
sound.
This
is
the
result
of
moisture
being
picked
up
from
the
air
in
the
room
and
thrown
against
the
air
conditioner's
fan.
This
is
normal
and
should
not
be
cause
for
concern.
Also,
do
not
be
alarmed
if
you
hear
a
slight
hissing
or
gurgling
sound
coming
from
your
air
conditioner
after
it
is
off.
These
are
normal
coolant
noises.
CAPACITY
AND
RUNNING
TIME
Proper
unit
size
is
important
in
deciding
the
desired
comfort
for
the
area
you
want
to
cool.
An
undersized
unit
will
not
have
the
capability
to
cool,
leaving
the
area
uncomfortably
warm.
The
proper
size
is
determined
by
the
number
of
square
feet
in
the
area
to
be
cooled,
indoor
and
outdoor
temperature
and
humidity.
Whenever
the
heat
or
humidity
load
is
above
normal
the
air
conditioner
must
run
longer
and
more
often
to
keep
the
desired
temperature
you
have
selected,
Under
heavy
heat
load
conditions
the
air
conditioner
may
need
to
run
constantly
to
keep
the
temperature
you
want.
At
times
using
the
MED
FAN
setting
to
circulate
the
room
air
may
make
it
comfortable
even
though
the
air
is
not
being
cooled.
This
will
decrease
your
cost
of
use.
WATER
DRAIN
VALVE
When
the
outside
temperature
drops
below
58°F
and
the
unit
is
set
for
heating,
a
drain
valve
opens
up
to
release
water
from
the
base
pan.
This
is
normal
and
prevents
water
from
freezing
in
the
base
pan
and
interfering
with
the
outdoor
fan.
Fan
You
may
hear
air
movement
from
the
fan.
Condenser
You
may
hear
droplets
of
water
hitting
the
condenser
causing
a
pinging
or
clicking
sound.
Unit
Vibration
The
unit
may
vibrate
and
make
noise
because
of
poor
wall
or
window
construction.
Compressor
The
modern
high
efficiency
compressor
may
have
a
high
pitched
hum
or
pulsating
noise
that
cycles
on
and
off.

USING
THE
AIR
CONDITIONER
To
reduce
the
risk
of
fire,
electric
shock,
or
injury
to
persons,
read
the
important
SAFETY
instructions
section
before
operating
this
appliance.
To
begin
operating
the
air
conditioner
after
installation,
follow
these
steps:
1.
Plug
in
the
air
conditioner.
(To
prevent
electrical
hazards,
do
not
use
an
extension
cord
or
an
adapter
plug.)
2.
Push
in
the
exhaust
air
vent
control
to
the
CLOSE
position.
3.
Set
the
TEMP
Control
to
the
coolest
setting.
4.
Set
the
MODE
control
at
the
highest
COOL
level.
5.
Adjust
the
louvers
for
comfortable
air
flow.
6.
Once
the
room
has
cooled,
adjust
the
TEMP
and
MODE
control
to
the
setting
you
find
most
comfortable.
NOTE
:
If
the
air
conditioner
is
turned
off,
wait
3
minutes
before
restarting.
This
allows
pressure
inside
the
compressor
to
equalize.
Failure
to
wait
3
minutes
before
restarting
may
cause
inefficient
operation.
If
you
move
the
TEMP
Control
to
a
warmer,
then
immediately
back
to
a
cooler
setting,
the
unit
will
shut
off.
Wait
3
minutes
before
restarting.
VENT
CONTROL
The
Vent
Control
allows the
air
conditioner
to
either
recirculate
inside
air
(CLOSE)
or
exhaust
air
to
the
outside
(OPEN).
(FIG.
25)
?
The
CLOSE
position
is
used
when
maximum
cooling
is
desired.
It
may
also
be
used
for
air
recirculation
without
cooling
when
the
air
conditioner
is
set
in
the
FAN
position.
?
The
OPEN
position
removes
stale
air
from
the
room
and
exhausts
it
to
the
outside.
Fresh
air
is
drawn
into
the
room
through
normal
air
passages
found
in
homes.
?
The
OPEN
or
CLOSE
position
can
be used
with
any
fan
selection.
