How to restart the air
conditioner: To restart the air conditioner, set the mode selector to desired position.
CAUTION If the unit is turned off during cooling and heating, DO NOT restart it
immediately, as this can damage it. Wait at least three minutes before
starting
2) Freezing Up:
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 on
the coldest setting and the Selector is set on LOW COOL.
To correct the condition set the Selector at (H or L) FAN or HIGH COOL
with the Thermostat with turning the thermostat knob to the opposite
direction from ”COOLER”.

Tips for Energy Saving
Do not •Block the air intake and outlet of the unit. If they are obstructed, the
unit will not work well, and may be damaged.
•Let direct sunlight into the room. Use sunshades, blinds or curtains. If
the walls and ceiling of the room are warmed by the sun, it will take
longer to cool the room.
Do •Keep the air filter clean. (Refer to “Care and Cleaning”.)
A clogged filter will impair the performance of the unit.
•To prevent conditioned air from escaping, keep windows, doors and any
other openings closed.
•Keep
•Keep outdoor condenser coil clean.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE AND REMEDY
AIR CONDITIONER DOES
NOT OPERATE •Not plugged in. Plug may have been bumped loose by vacuum cleaner or
furniture.
•If plugged in, fuse could have blown or circuit breaker may have been tripped.
AIR CONDITIONER
“DOES NOT HEAT OR
COOL AS IT SHOULD”
•Curtains, blinds or furniture blocking front of air conditioner will restrict air
flow.
WATER LEAKS INSIDE •Air conditioner is not installed level. Install level or tilt slightly toward the
outside.
WATER LEAKS OUTSIDE •Excess water may overflow in extremely hot and humid weather.
This is normal.
NOISY OPERATION •When compressor or fan switches on and off, a metallic knock may be heard.
This is normal.
•Something is hitting or vibrating inside the cabinet. Turn off air conditioner and
consult your dealer.
•Thermostat Control may not be set high or low enough. Also, when Fan Switch
is at CYCLE, the temperature in the room will vary more than when it’s at
CONTINUOUS. Turn knob to another number. Highest setting should provide
maximum cooling. The lowest setting should provide maximum heating.
•Air filter dirty, should be cleaned at least every 30 days.
•Room may have been very hot or cold when air conditioner was first turned on.
Allow time for it to cool down or warm up.
•Conditioned air may be escaping through open furnace floor registers and cold
air returns.
•Cooling coils have iced up. To melt ice, set the Fan at high speed and the
Thermostat Control to a lower number.
