How to connect
electricity
For personal safety,
this appliance mu;t be
properly grounded.
Electrical requirements
115-volt models require a 115/120-
volt a.c., 60 hz grounded outlet
protected with a 15 amp time delay
fuse or circuit breaker.
The power cord on these models has
a three-prong (grounding) plug that
mates with a standard three-prong
(grounding) wall outlet (Fig. 1) to
minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from these appliances.

BEFORE USE
Where a standard two-prong wall
outlet is encountered, it is your
personal responsibility and
obligation to have it replaced with
a properly grounded three-prong
wall outlet.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT
OR REMOVE THE THIRD
(GROUND) PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD.
230/208-volt models require their
that mates respectively with a
230/208-volt perpendicular,

Whether your air conditioner is
a 115-volt or a 230/208-volt unit,
it is important to have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician if there is
any doubt as to whether a
proper ground exists.
Use of adapter plug
(115-volt models only)
~
own single branch circuit supplying
230/208-volt a.c., protected with a
time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
This is recommended for best
performance and to prevent
overloading house wiring circuits,
which could cause a possible fire
hazard from
overheating wires.
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against use
of an adapter plug. However, if
you still elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARY CONNECTION
The power cord on these models
may be made to a properly grounded
has a 230/208-volt perpendicular, two-prong
wdl outlet by use of a UL
tandem or large tandem type plug
listed adapter (Fig. 2) available at
most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must
be
aligned with the lm~er slot in the
wall
;utlet to provide ~roper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet cover
screw does not ground the appliance
unless cover screw is metal, and not
insulated, and wall outlet is
grounded through house wiring.
You should have the circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make
sure the outlet is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power
cord from the adapter, always
hold the adapter with one hand. If
this is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break
with repeated use.
Should the adapter ground
terminal break, DO NOT USE
the appliance until a proper
ground has again been
established.
Use of extension cords
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we
strongly recommend against the
use of an extension cord.
However, if you still elect to use an
extension cord, it is absolutely
necessary that it be a UL listed
3-
wire grounding type appliance
exten~ion cord-and that-the current
carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equal to or greater than
the branch circuit size shown on
the rating nameplate of the
appliance.

If you notice that your air
conditioner is not cooling as it
should, it may be that ice has formed
on the cooling coils. The ice blocks
air flow and stops the unit from
cooling the room. This “freezing up”
is a temporary condition that most
often occurs at night when the
Thermostat is set at a higher number
and the Selector is set on LO COOL.
To correct the condition, set the
Selector at HI FAN or HI COOL
and move the Thermostat to the
warmest setting.

for maximum comfort.
SAVE setting lets the fan cycle on
and off with the compressor during
cooling. The fan stops when the
thermostat setting is satisfied. This
setting results in longer off time
and wider variations of room
temperature and humidity. This
setting is normally used when the
room is unoccupied.

Ventilation Control
When you move the Ventilation
Control to CLOSE, the vent door is
closed and only the air inside the
room will be circulated and
conditioned. Moving the control to
OPEN opens the vent door,
allowing a small amount of indoor
air to be exhausted from the room.
However, cooling effectiveness is
reduced when this control is set at
3PEN, so we suggest you don’t
keep it there long+ specially in
hot, humid weather.
For normal cooling
1. Set the Selector Switch at HIGH
COOL.
2. Set the Thermostat Control at
the desired number (usually 5-7 is a
good starting position). If room
temperature is not satisfactory after
a reasonable time, set the
Thermostat Control at a higher
number for a cooler room or at a
lower number for a warmer room.
3. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL position for continuous
fan operation or at SAVE position
to automatically cycle the fan on
and off with the compressor.
4. Set the Ventilation Control at
CLOSE except for brief periods
when you want to exhaust room air
to the outside.
For maximum cooling
1. Set the Selector Switch at
HIGH COOL.
2. Turn the Thermostat Control
to
10.
3. Set the Ventilation Control at
CLOSE.
4. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
the NORMAL position.
For quieter operation
1. Set the Selector Switch at LOW
COOL position.
2. Slide the Thermostat Control to
the desired number.
3. Set the Ventilation Control at
CLOSE.
4. Set the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL position.
Note: When the Energy Saver
Switch is at the SAVE position,
changes in the sound level may be
more noticeable than when it’s at
(he NORMAL position.
For nighttime operation
During the cooler evening hours, w
recommend that you set the
Selecto
Switch at LOW COOL for quieter
operation and the Thermostat
Control at mid-range (5 or 6). Set
the Ventilation Control at CLOSE
and the Energy Saver Switch at
NORMAL or SAVE position.
For extreme temperatures
For greatest economy and best
performance, we suggest that you
set the Selector Switch at HIGH
COOL in extremely hot weather.

Energ-Saving Tips
● Keep the air filter clean.
● For most efficient cooling,
keep the ventilation control in
the CLOSE position except
when you want to exhaust air,
smoke or odors from the room.
● Don’ t let the room get too
hot. Whenever possible, turn the
unit on before the room heats up.
When heat is “stored up” in walls,
furniture, rugs and draperies, your
air conditioner takes longer to
produce the desired comfort
condition.
● Keep windows and doors
closed. Cool, dry air escapes
when they’re open.
● Keep furnace floor registers and
cold air returns closed. Cold air
can
easily escape through them.
● Don’t let drapes or furniture block
the top or front of unit and restrict
air flow when it is operating.
● It’s best to operate your air
conditioner at high speed during
extremely hot weather.
Q Keep the outdoor condenser
coil clean.
● Turn air conditioner off before
vacations or extended absences
from home.

● Cold air may be escaping through open
furnace floor registers and cold air returns.
● Ventilation control may be set at OPEN position,
allowing hot outside air to enter the room.
● Cooling coils have iced up. To melt ice, move
the Selector Switch to FAN ONLY and the
Thermostat Control to a lower number.
● Thermostat click, a metilic sound, may be heard
when compressor cycles on and off. This is normal.
● Fan runs continuously when Selector Switch
is in COOL or FAN position. This is norrnd.
When Energy Saver Switch is set at SAVE, fan
cycles on and off with compressor.
● Excess water may ovefflow in extremely hot
and humid weather. This is normal.
● Air conditioner must be installed level or tilted
slightly to the outside for proper water disposd.
● This is normrd for a short period in areas with
