This symbol alerts you to hazards that could cause harm to the air conditioner.
WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug. To minimize the risk of electric shock, use
the plug with a standard three-slot grounding wall power outlet. If the power outlet does not include a grounding slot, have a
qualified electrician replace the outlet before you use the room air conditioner.
WARNING: Changing the outlet without making the appropriate wiring changes will create an unsafe condition
that could result in fire or electrical shock. Refer all such work to a licensed and qualified electrician.
7
WARNING: Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug.
X
WARNING: 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.
WARNING: If you have doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician.
TEMPORARY USE OF AN EXTENSION CORD:
We strongly discourage the use of an extension cord due to potential safety hazards. For temporary situations, use only CSA
certified and cUL listed 3-wire grounded extension cords, rated 15A, 125V.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR AIR CONDITIONER
