Electrical Specifications
1. All wiring must comply with local and national
electrical codes and must be installed by a
qualified electrician. If you have any questions
regarding the following instructions, contact a
qualified electrician.
2. Check available power supply and resolve any
wiring problems BEFORE installing and
operating this unit.
3. This 115V air conditioner uses 10.1 or less
(depending on model) nameplate amps and may
be used in any properly wired, general purpose
household receptacle. See Table 1 for
specifications for individual branch circuit.
4. For your safety and protection, this unit is
grounded through the power cord plug when
plugged into a matching wall outlet. If
you are not sure whether your wall outlet is
properly grounded, please consult a
qualified electrician.
5. The wall outlet (3-pin) must match the plug (3-
pin) on the service cord supplied with the unit.
DO NOT use plug adapters. See Table 2 for
receptacle and fuse information. DO NOT USE
"REGULAR" EXTENSION CORDS WITH THIS
UNIT. If it is necessary to use an extension cord
to connect your air conditioner, use an approved
"air conditioner" extension cord only. (available at
most local hardware stores)

Energy-Saving Tips
Your Room Air Conditioner is designed to be
highly efficient in energy savings.
Follow these recommendations for greater efficiency.
4. Start your air conditioner before outdoor air
becomes hot and uncomfortable. This avoids an
initial period of discomfort while unit is cooling
off the room.
1. Select thermostat setting that suits your
comfort needs and leave thermostat at that
chosen setting.
2. The filter is very efficient in removing airborne
particles. Keep air filter clean. Normally, filter
should be cleaned every 2 weeks. More
frequent cleaning may be necessary depending
on indoor air quality.
5. When outdoor temperatures are cool enough,
use HIGH or LOW FAN only. This circulates
indoor air, providing some cooling comfort, and
utilizes less electricity than when operating on a
cooling setting.
3. Use drapes, curtains, or shades to keep
direct sunlight from heating room, but DO NOT
obstruct the air conditioner. Allow air to circulate
around the unit without obstruction.

Your Room Air Conditioner is designed for easy
installation in a single or double-hung window. This
unit is NOT designed for vertical (slider type)
windows and/or through-the-wall applications.
Fig. 1
NOTE: Save the shipping carton and packing
materials for future storage or transport of the unit.
Remove from carton, the plastic bag containing the
installation hardware kit necessary for the installation
of your air conditioner. Please check the contents of
hardware kit against the corresponding model check
list, prior to installation of the unit. See Fig. 1

CAUTION
Your unit is designed to evaporate condensation
under normal conditions. However, under
extreme humidity conditions, excess condensation
may cause basepan to overflow to the outside.
The Unit should be installed where condensation
run-off cannot drip on pedestrians or neighboring
properties.
Because the compressor is located towards the
rear of the unit, this side will be heavier and more
awkward to manipulate. Therefore, it is
recommended to have someone assist you
during the installation of this unit.

Care and Maintenance
End-of-Season Care
1. Operate the fan alone for half a day to dry out the
inside of the unit.
When cleaning the air conditioner, be sure to
turn the POWER OFF and disconnect the power
cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Turn off power and remove plug from wall socket.
3. Clean filter.
1. DO NOT use gasoline, benzine, thinner or other
chemicals on the air conditioner as these
substances may cause damage to the paint finish
and deformation of plastic parts.
4. Store (covered) air conditioner in a dry location.
2. Never attempt to pour water directly on unit as
this will cause deterioration of the electrical
insulation.
CAUTION
When installing and/or removing the air
conditionner from the window, ensure that
caution is taken to prevent the unit from falling
backward. It is recommended that installtion
or removal of the airconditioner is done with
assitance to prevent injury to persons or
damage to the unit or property.
Air Filter Removal:
The air filter is located behind the air intake front
grill. To remove the air filter, grasp the sides of the
front grill and pull forward to open and access the
filter.
To reinstall the air filter, reverse the above
procedures. The air filter may be vacuumed or
washed by-hand in warm water. Dry thoroughly
before installing.
Cleaning Air Filter
1. Use a vacuum cleaner with soft brush
attachment.
2. Wash the filter in lukewarm water below 40°C
(104°F): To get better results, wash with soapy
water or a neutral cleaning agent.
3. Rinse the filter with clean water and
dry thoroughly before re-installing.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT forget to install the air filter. If the air
conditioner is left to operate without the air filter,
dust is not removed from the room air and may
result in machine failure.
When the air inlet grill and cabinet are dirty, wipe
with lukewarm water (below 40°C / 104°F). Use of
a mild detergent is recommended.
