Before Operating Your Unit

Make sure the wiring is adequate for your unit.

If you have fuses, they should be of the time delay type. Before you install or relocate this unit, be sure that
the amperage rating of the circuit breaker or time delay fuse does not exceed the amp rating listed in figure 1.

DO NOT use an extension cord.

The cord provided will carry the proper amount of electrical power to the unit; an extension cord will not.

Make sure that the receptacle is compatible with the wall plug provided.

This insures proper grounding. If you have a two-prong receptacle you will need to have the circuit replaced
by a certified electrician with a grounded circuit that meets all national and local codes and ordinances. You
must use the three-prong plug furnished with the air conditioner.

For the Best Cooling Performance and Energy Efficiency

Keep the filter clean

Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top performing condition by cleaning the filter regularly.
Instructions for removing and cleaning the filter can be found on page 6.

Provide good airflow

Make sure that the airflow into and out of the unit is unobstructed. (both indoors and outdoors)

Maximum airflow is critical for peak performance. Your air conditioner blows air out of the top of the unit
and takes in air at the bottom of the unit.

Unit Placement

If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or a wall that is shaded by a tree or another building, the
unit will operate even more efficiently. Using drapes or blinds on the sunny side of the dwelling will also
add to your unit's efficiency.

Insulation

Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable comfort levels. Doors should have weather
stripping. Be sure to caulk around doors and windows.
