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.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
Air conditioner does
not start
The air conditioner 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 settings 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 the 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
Airflow is restricted. Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture
blocking the front of the air conditioner.
The temp control may not be
set correctly.
On models with touch pads: In the Cool mode, press
the Decrease – pad.
On models with control knobs, turn the temperature
knob to a higher number.
The air filter is dirty. Clean the filter at least every 30 days. See the 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.
On models with touch pads, set the controls at High
Fan or High Cool and set the thermostat to a higher
temperature.
The remote control is

Water drips indoors The air conditioner is not
tilted to the outside.
For proper water 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 drains into base pan.
This is normal for a short period in areas with little
humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid
areas.

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.

Filtro de aire
El filtro de aire detrás de la rejilla frontal debe inspeccionarse y
limpiarse por lo menos cada 30 días o más a menudo si fuese
necesario.
Para retirarlo:
Empuje la lengüeta del lado derecho de la unidad hasta haber
retirado el filtro.
Para retirarlo:
Abra la rejilla de entrada empujando hacia abajo las lengüetas
en las esquinas superiores de la rejilla de entrada, hasta que la
rejilla se encuentre en una posición de 45º. Retire el filtro.
Limpie el filtro con agua caliente y jabón. Enjuague y deje
secar el filtro antes de su reemplazo. Su filtro es también de
uso seguro en lavavajillas; se recomienda ubicar el mismo
en el estante superior y colocarlo de forma parada en el
lavavajillas.
PRECAUCIÓN NO OPERE el acondicionador
de aire sin el filtro debido a que la suciedad y las pelusas lo
obstruirán y reducirán su rendimiento.
