Operation of Cur rent Device
(Applicable to units that have current detection
device only)
The power supply cord contains a current device that senses
damage to the power cord. To test your power supply cord do
the following:
1. Plug in the air conditioner.
2. The power supply cord will have TWO buttons on the plug
head. Press the TEST button, you will notice a click as the
RESET button pops out.
3. Press the RESET button, again you will notice a click as
the button engages.
4. The power supply cord is now supplying electricity to the
unit. (On some products this it also indicated by a light on
the plug head.)
To reduce the risk of fire, electric 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. This
information can be found on the serial plate, which is located on the side of the
the cabinet and behind the grille.
If the air conditioner i s t o b e in stalled in a w indow, yo u w ill pr obably w ant to cl ean

Be sure the air c onditioner h as b een s ecurely a nd c orrectly in stalled a ccording to
the installation instructions in this manual. Save this manual for possible future
use in removing or installing this unit.
When handling the air conditioner, be careful to avoid cuts f rom s harp m etal f ins
on front and rear coils.
The complete electical 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 used in 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. Ensure the receptacle is accessible after the unit installation.
Do not run air conditioner without side protective cover in place.This could
result in mechanical damage within the air conditioner.
Do not use an extension cord or an adaptor plug.
Do not use this device to turn the unit on or off.
Always make sure the RESET button is pushed in for
correct operation.
The power supply must be replaced if it fails reset when
either the TEST button is pushed, or it cannot be reset. A
new one can be obtained from the product manufacturer.
If power supply cord is damaged, it cannot be repaired. It
MUST be replaced by one obtained from the product
manufacturer.

may have a high pitched chatter
during the cooling cycle.
Gurgle/Hiss
Gurgling or hissing noise may
be heard due to refrigerant
passing through evaporator
during normal operation.
Pinging or Switching
Droplets of water hitting condenser
during normal operation may cause
pinging or switching sounds.
Vibration
Unit may vibrate and make noise
because of poor wall or window
construction or incorrect installation.

AIR CONDITIONER FEATURES
TO ADJUST FAN SPEEDS:
Press to select the fan speed in four steps: Auto,
Low, Med or High. Each time the button is pressed,
the fan speed mode is shifted. On Dry mode,the fan
speed is controlled at Low automatically.
TO SELECT THE OPERATING MODE:
To choose operating mode, press Mode button. Each
time you press the button, a mode is selected in a
sequence that goes from Auto, Cool, Dry and Fan. The
indicator light beside will be illuminated and remained
on once the mode is selected.
To operate on Auto feature:
In this mode, the fan speed cannot be adjusted: it starts
automatically at a predetermined speed that depends on
the room temperature.
To operate on Fan Only:
Use this function only when cooling is not desired, such
as for room air circulation or to exhaust stale air (on
some models). Remember to open the vent during this
function, but keep it closed during cooling for maximum
cooling efficiency. You can choose any fan speed you
prefer.
During this function, the display will show the actual
room temperature, not the set temperature as in the
cooling mode.
To operate on Dry mode:
In this mode, the air conditioner will generally operate
in the form of a dehumidifier. Since the conditioned
space is a closed or sealed area, some degree of
cooling will continue.
When you set the air conditioner in AUTO mode, it will
automatically select cooling, heating (not available on cooling-
only models), or fan-only operation depending on what
temperature you have selected and the room temperature.
The air conditioner will control the room temperature
automatically at the temperature point you have selected.
In Fan-only modethe temperature is not adjusted.
The unit will initiate automatically the Energy Saver
function under Cool, Dry, Auto (only Auto-Cooling and
Auto-Fan) modes.
SLEEP FEATURE:
Press Sleep button to initiate the sleep mode. In
this mode the selected temperature will increase by
O O
2 F/1(or 2) C 30 minutes after the mode is selected.

The temperature will then increase by another 2 F/
O
1(or 2) C after an additional 30 minutes.Thisnew
temperature will bemaintained for6 hours before it
returns to the originally-selected temperature. This
ends the Sleepmode,and the unit will continue to
operate as originally programmed. The Sleep mode
program can be cancelled at any time during
operation by pressing the Sleep button again.
Press Check Filter button to initiate this feature.
This feature is a reminder to clean the air filter for
more efficient operation. The LED (indicator light) will
illuminate after 250 hours of operation. To reset after
cleaning the filter, press the Check Filter button and
the light will go off.
CHECK FILTER FEATURE:
ENERGY SAVER FEATURE:
Press Energy Saver button to initiate this function.
This function is available on COOL, DRY, AUTO
(only AUTO-COOLING andAUTO-FAN) modes.The
fan will continue to run for 3 minutes after the
compressor shuts off. The fan then cycles on for 2
minutes at 10 minute intervals until the room
temperature is above the set temperature, at which
time the compressor turns back on and cooling
starts.
When the unit is on or off, first press Timer button: the
TIMER ON indicator light illuminates. It indicates the Auto
Start program is initiated.
When the time of TIMER ON is displayed, press the Timer
button again, the TIMER OFF indicator light illuminates.
It indicates the Auto Stop program is initiated.
Press or hold the UP or DOWN button to change the Auto
time in 0.5 hour increments, up to 10 hours, then in 1 hour
increments up to 24 hours.The control will count down the
time remaining until start.
The selected time will register in 5 seconds, and the system
will automatically revert back to display the previous
temperature setting or room temperature when the unit is
on. When the unit is off there is no display.
Turning the unit ON or OFF at any time or adjusting the

ADDITIONAL THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Now that you have mastered the operating procedure,
here are more features in your control that you should
become familiar with.
The Cool circuit has an automatic 3 minute time-
delay start if the unit is turned off and on quickly.
This prevents overheating of the compressor and
possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will
