HOWTOCONNECTELECTRICITY
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,
DONOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
_dth a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
_dth a standard &prong (grounding) wall
oudet to minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from this appliance.
Power cord includes a current interrupter
dex,ice. A test and reset button is prox,ided on
the plug case. The dex;ice should be tested on a
periodic basis by first pressing the YESYbutton
and then the RESEYbutton while plugged into
the outlet. If the TESrbutmn does not trip
or it the RESETbutmn _dll not stay engaged,
discontinue use of the air conditioner and
contact a qualified serx,ice 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 encounmred,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall oudet.
The air conditioner should always be plugged
into its own indix,idual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating
plate.
This prox,ides the best perfbrmance 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.

_) ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
(_ ome models require a 115/120-voltAC,
60-Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the
possibility of electric shock hazard. If the wall
outlet you plan to use is only a 2-prong outlet,
it is your responsibility to have it replaced with
a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
©Some models require 230/208-volt AC,
protected with a time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker. These models should be installed
on their own single branch circuit for
best performance and to prevent
overloading house or apartment wiring
circuits, which could cause a possible
fire hazard from overheating wires.
-4,CAUTION:
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
Do not change the plug on the power cord
of this air conditioner.
Aluminum house wiring may present special
problems--consult a qualified electrician.
TOOLS YOU WILL NEED
