• Be sure the air conditioner is properly grounded. To minimize shock and fire hazards, proper grounding is
important. The power cord is equipped with a three-prong
grounding plug for protection against shock hazards.
• Your air conditioner must be connected to a properly ground-
ed wall receptacle. If the wall receptacle you intend to use is
not adequately grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or
circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install the proper recepta-
cle.
• Ensure the receptacle is accessible aer the unit installation.
