IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS –
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be
a UL-listed, 14 gauge, 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord having a
grounding type plug and outlet and that
the electrical rating of the cord be
15 amperes (minimum) and 125 volts.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS –
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a temporary
connection may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use of a
UL-listed adapter available at most local
hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall
outlet to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

4
115-Volt models only
CAUTION:
DO NOT use an extension cord with any of
the 230/208 volt models.
115-Volt models only
When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in
place with one hand while pulling the
power cord plug with the other hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground terminal is
very likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE the air conditioner until a
proper ground has been established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall
outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance
unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,
and the wall outlet is grounded through the house
wiring. You should have the circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
