POWER SUPPLY CORD
12
NOTE: Your air conditioner’s device may differ from the one shown. This room air conditioner
is equipped with a power supply cord required by UL. This power supply cord contains state-
of-the-art electronics that sense leakage current. If the cord is crushed, the electronics detect
leakage current and power will be disconnected in a fraction of a second.
To test your power supply cord:
1. Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
2. Press RESET (2) (on some devices, a green light will turn on).
3. Press TEST (1) and listen for click. The RESET button will trip and on some devices, a green light will turn off.
4. Press and release RESET (2) and listen for click. The RESET button will latch, and on some devices, a green light will turn on. The
power supply cord is ready for operation.
NOTE: The RESET button must be pushed in for proper operation.
□The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the test button is pressed or fails to reset.
□Do not use the power supply cord as an off/on switch. The power supply cord is designed as a protective device.
□A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer and must not be
repaired.
□The power supply cord contains no user serviceable parts. Opening the tamper-resistant case voids all warranty and performance claims.
