Safe Operation Rules
Please take a few minutes to read our instructions before
you install and use your air conditioner. This will help you
obtain the full value from your air conditioner. It will also
help you avoid any needless service costs that result from
causes we cannot control and cannot cover in our
warranty.
Follow these rules and the instructions carefully. Failure to
do so could cause a malfunction of the air conditioner,
