For Your SafetyDo not store or use gasoline or otherflammable vapors and liquids inthe vicinityof this or any other appliance. Read product labels forflammability and otherwarnings.

Prevent Accidents

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons whenusing your air conditioner, follow basic precautions, including thefollowing:• Be sure the electrical service is adequate for the model you have

chosen. This information can be found on the serial plate, which islocated on the side of the cabinet and behind the grille.

• If theair conditioneris to be installed in a window, you will probablywant to clean both sides of the glass first. If the window is atriple-tracktype with a screen panel included, remove the screen completelybefore installation.

• Be sure the airconditioner has been securelyand correctly installedaccording to the separate installation instructions provided with thismanual. Save this manual and the installation instructions forpossible futureusein removing orreinstalling this unit.

• When handling theair conditioner, be careful toavoid cuts fromsharpmetal fins onfront and rearcoils.

Electrical Information

The complete electrical rating of yournew room airconditioner is statedon the serial plate. Refer to the rating when checking the electricalrequirements.• Be sure the air conditioneris properly grounded. To minimize shock

and fire hazards, proper grounding is important. The power cord isequipped with athree-prong grounding plug and acurrentleakagedetection device forprotection against shock& firehazards.

• Your air conditioner must be used in a properly grounded wallreceptacle. If thewall receptacleyouintendtouseisnotadequatelygrounded or protected by a time delay fuseor circuit breaker, haveaqualified electrician install the proper receptacle.

• Do notrun air conditioner with outside protective cover in place. Thiscould result in mechanical damage within the airconditioner.

• Do not usean extension cordor an adapterplug.

Energy Saving Ideas

EN• Donot block inside air flowwith blinds, curtainsor furniture; or

outside with shrubs, enclosures, or other buildings.• The capacity of the room air conditioner must fit the room size for

efficient and satisfactory operation.• Install the room air conditioner on the shady sideofyour home. A

window thatfaces north is best because it is shaded most of the day.• Close the fireplace damper, floorandwallregisters so coolair does

not escape upthe chimney andinto the ductwork.• Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed duringthe sunniest

part of the day.• Clean the air filteras recommended in the section "Care and Cleaning"• Proper insulation and weatherstrippingin your home will help keep

warm airout and cool airin.• External house shadingwith trees, plantsor awnings will help reduce

the airconditioner work load.• Operate heat producing appliances such as ranges, washers, dryers

and dishwashers during the coolest part of the day.
