ElectricalSafety
AWARNING
•This appliance must be properly grounded.
To minimize the risk of electric shock, you must alway plug into a grounded oulet.
• Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug.
• Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance
unless the cover screw is metal and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the
house wiring.
• Ifyou have any doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician.
We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards. For temporary connections,
use only a genuine adapter, available from most local hardware stores. Ensure that the large slot in the
adapter is aligned with the large slot in the receptacle for a proper polarity connection.
To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on each to avoid damaging the ground
terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power cord as this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.
,&WARNING
• Never use the appliance with a broken adapter.
This symbol alerts you to the risk of electric shock.
This symbol alerts you to hazards that may cause harm to the

!iiiii¸
The heat exchanger coils and panel vents of the outdoor unit should be checked regularly.
If clogged with dirt or soot, the heat exchanger
and panel vents may be professionally steam cleaned.
Dirty or clogged coils will reduce the operating efficiency of the system and cause higher operating costs.
This is not good for the health and
wastes electricity. Do not let direct sunshine enter
the room when the air conditioner
is in operation.
Adjust the vertical and horizontal
airflow direction to ensure a
uniform temperature in the room.
Avoid opening doors and
windows as much as
possibleto keep the cool
air in the room.
Blockages in the airfilter
reduce the airflow and
lowercooling and
dehumidifying effects.
Clean at least once every
two weeks.
Since windows are kept
closed, it isa good idea
to openthem and
ventilate the room now
