with this Window Air Conditioner.
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third
(ground) prong from the power cord. For personal safety,
this appliance must be properly grounded.
DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard
3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the possibility
of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Power cord includes a current interrupter device. A test
and reset button is provided on the plug case. The device
should be tested on a periodic basis by first pressing the
TEST button and then the RESET button while plugged
into the outlet. If the TEST button does not trip or if the
RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue use of the
air conditioner and contact a qualified service technician.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced
with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
The air conditioner should always be plugged into its
own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which could cause a
fire hazard from overheated wires.
See the Installation Instructions, Electrical
Requirements section for specific electrical connection
requirements.

Care and Cleaning
Grille and Case
Turn the air conditioner off and remove the plug from the
wall outlet before cleaning. To clean, use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives.
Air Filter
The air filter behind the front grille should be checked
and cleaned at least every 30 days or more often if
necessary.
To remove:
Slide the filter from the left side of the unit. Remove the
filter.
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and let the
filter dry before replacing it. Do not clean the filter in a
dishwasher.
CAUTION
DO NOT operate the air conditioner
without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce
performance.
Outdoor Coils
The coils on the outdoor side of the air conditioner should
be checked regularly. If they are clogged with dirt or soot,
they may be professionally cleaned.
Do Not Operate in Freezing Outdoor Conditions
This cool-only air conditioner was not designed for freezing
outdoor conditions. It must not be used when the outdoor
temperature is below freezing (32°F).

Troubleshooting Tips... Before you call for service
Save time and money! Review the charts on the following pages first and you may not need to call for service.
Problem Possible Cause What To Do
Air conditioner does not
start. The unit is unplugged. Make sure the air conditioner plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
The fuse is blown/circuit breaker
is tripped. Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker.
Power Failure. The unit will automatically restart in the setting last
used after the power is restored.
There is a protective time delay (approximately
3 minutes) to prevent tripping of the compressor
overload. For this reason, the unit may not start normal
cooling for 3 minutes after it is turned back on.
The current interrupter device is
tripped. Press RESET button located on the power cord plug.
If the RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue
use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified
service technician.
Air conditioner does not
cool as it should. Indoor airflow is restricted. Make sure there are not curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front of the air conditioner.
The temp control may not be set
properly. Turn the temperature control to a higher number.
The air filter is dirty. Clean the filter at least every 30 days. See Care and
Cleaning section.
The room may have been hot. When the air conditioner is first turned on, you need to
allow time for the room to cool down.
Cold air is escaping. Check for open furnace registers and cold air returns.
Cooling coils have iced up. See “Air conditioner freezing up” below.
Air conditioner freezing up Ice blocks the air flow and stops
the air conditioner from cooling
the room.
On models with control knobs, set the mode control at
High Fan or High Cool with the Temp at 1 or 2.
Water drips outside Hot, humid weather. This is normal.
Water drips inside The air conditioner is not tilted to
the outside. For proper disposal, make sure the air conditioner slants slightly from the case front to the rear.
Water collects in base pan Moisture removed from air and
drain into base pan. This is normal for a short period in areas with little humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid
areas.

You can reduce this noise by removing the subbase water plug.
To ensure maximum efficiency it is recommended to check to ensure the rubber drain plug is properly inserted.
This plug may be removed during operation to minimize water in the back of the unit; however, removing it will
lower the efficiency of your unit.
NOTE: Do not drill hole in the base pan.

Contrate a un electricista calificado para que controle el
tomacorriente y el circuito eléctrico para asegurar que el
enchufe esté correctamente conectado a tierra.
En caso de contar con un tomacorriente de pared de 2
cables, es su responsabilidad y obligación reemplazarlo
por un tomacorriente de pared de 3 cables correctamente
conectado a tierra.
El acondicionador de aire debería estar siempre conectado a
un enchufe específico con un índice de voltaje equivalente al
que figura en su etiqueta de características técnicas.
Esto garantiza el mejor funcionamiento y además previene la
sobrecarga de los circuitos del hogar, lo cual podría ocasionar
riesgos de incendio debido al recalentamiento de cables.
