Prior to Operation
Preparing for Operation

Usage
1. Being exposed to direct airflow for a long time may be hazardous to your health. Do not expose
occupants, pets, or plants to direct airflow for a long time.
2. Ventilate the room when the air conditioner is used with other heating devices. Otherwise the oxygen
supply may be inadequate.
3. Do not use this air conditioner for non-specified special purpose (e.g. preserving precision devices, food,
pets, plants, or art objects). Such use may damage your properties.

Cleaning and Maintenance


1. Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injury can occur.
2. Do not use water to clean inside the air conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation,
leading to electric shock.
3. When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned off. The fan rotates at a
very high speed during operation. There is a possibility of injury if the unit power is accidently turned on
while the interior of the unit is being cleaned.

Electrical Safety

Electrical Safety

To minimize the risk of electric shock, you must alway plug into a grounded oulet

Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the power plug.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does
not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal and not insulated, and
the wall receptacle is grounded through the house wiring.
If you have any doubt whether the air conditioner is properly grounded, have the
wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician.

Temporary Use of an Adapter


We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards. For temporary connections,
use only a UL-listed adapter, available from most local hardware stores. Ensure that the large slot in the
adapter is aligned with the large slot in the receptacle for a proper polarity connection.
To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on each to avoid damaging the ground
terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power cord as this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.

Never use the appliance with a broken adapter.

Temporary Use of an Extension Cord


We strongly discourage the use of an extension cord due to potential safety hazards. For temporary
situations, use only CSA certified and UL listed 3-wire grounded extension cords, rated 15 A, 125 V.

The air conditioner is operating normally when:
You hear a pinging noise. This is caused by water being picked up by the fan on rainy days or in highly humid
conditions. This feature is designed to help remove moisture in the air and improve cooling efficiency.
You see water dripping from the rear of the unit. Water may be collected in the base pan in highly humid
conditions or on rainy days. This water overflows and drips from the rear of the unit.
You hear the fan running while the compressor is silent. This is a normal operational feature.
