SECTION 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Your safety and the safety of others are very important. We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING”. These words mean: You can be killed or seriously injured if you don’t immediately follow instructions. All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed. 1.1 PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER SAFETY 1.2 DANGER AND WARNING DANGER WARNING 2 WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury, or sickness when using your portable air conditioner, follow these basic precautions: • Plug into an exclusive grounded 3-prong outlet. • Do not remove ground prong. • Do not use an adapter. • Use two or more people to move or install portable air conditioner. • Do not drink the water collected inside the cabinet. • Follow the instructions in this manual for cleaning the unit. • Do not insert any objects into the unit. • Always turn off the unit before unplugging it. • Turn off and unplug the unit before cleaning or any other kind of servicing. • Never repair the unit or change the cord by yourself. Any repair or manipulation to the unit carried out by a non qualified individual will void the guarantee. • Do not place objects inside the air outlet or inlet grids. Do not block air outlet and/or inlet grids. • Do not use this unit inside closets, cabinets and/or cramped spaces between furniture. • Do not use this unit in proximity of inflammable and/or explosive substances. • Do not operate this unit without filters. Keep the filters clean. • Always turn this unit on and off using the ON/OFF switch. 1.3 SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
SECTION 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3 • Make sure that your electric power voltage corresponds with the voltage on the nameplate of the unit. • Keep children away from the unit. • Check the electric cord periodically. Do not use a damaged electric cord. • The cord length of this portable air conditioner is properly selected to reduce risk of danger. Do not use an extension cord. • The unit should be located in a dry area. • The unit is for indoor use only. Do not use outdoors. • Only use the accessories supplied by the supplier. Using accessories from any source other than the supplier is dangerous and may damage the unit. • Keep the unit away from any kind of heat source and direct sunlight - keep blinds/curtains closed during sunniest part of the day. • Do not immerse the unit into water or any kind of liquid. • Keep the unit away from any areas that have a chance of splashing water. • To avoid the risk of shock, the unit should never be used in bathrooms, shower rooms or in any other steamy or wet areas. • Do not use this unit at a slope - the unit is supported by four castors. • In the event of fire, use Carbon Dioxide (CO2) extinguishers. Do not use water or powder extinguishers. Please help us to help you: This portable air conditioner has been designed to create ideal climate in your room. Use it only for this specific purpose and according to the instructions in this manual. This unit is intended for household consumer use only, and is not for commercial use. Please use the unit in the recommended room size (refer to “Technical Specifications”). Do not place the air conditioner where furniture or other objects can obstruct the cooling airflow. Set the unit to maximum cooling and high fan initially, then adjust the unit to a comfortable setting. Note:It is recommended to turn on the air conditioner when the room temperature is around 75°F/23.9°C. Do not wait until the room is excessively hot. Note:This unit is equipped with a thermostat, and should automatically turn on when the pre- set temperature is reached, but only if set in the Cooling Mode. If it is set in Soft-Dry or Fan Only, the compressor will not turn on. A BC D Figure 1 Do not insert any objects.Keep children and pets away. Do not use wet cloth to clean - only damp cloths.Be cautious of where cord is placed.
SECTION 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 4 1.4 SPECIAL RECOMMENDATIONS • Place the portable air conditioner in a level spot. Leave at least 20 (50.8 cm) between the unit and the wall. • The plug should always be accessible after the unit is settled. • In order to let the compressor work properly, always keep the portable air conditioner in a vertical position. • Do not place the portable air conditioner near gas or any flammable liquids. • Keep the unit far away from TVs or radios in order to avoid electromagnetic interference. • Do not use any chemical sprays such as insecticides, painting or any flammable products near the unit. These chemical substances may interact with the plastic cabinet and warp it and cause electric interference. 1.5 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard Plug into a grounded (3-prong) outlet. Do not remove ground prong. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. In the U.S. only: If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is mandatory that the ground path is adequate. Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure if the portable air conditioner is grounded. A three-wire, single-phase, 60Hz AC only, electrical supply is required on a separate circuit. See model and serial label for circuit amperage required for your specific model. If the portable air conditioner has a serial plate rating 115 Volts and up to and including 7.5 Amps, the unit may conflict with a fuse or circuit breaker with other devices. HOWEVER, THE MAXIMUM AMPS OF ALL DEVICES ON THAT FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER CAN NOT EXCEED THE AMPS OF THE FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER. If the portable air conditioner has a serial plate rating of 115 Volts and greater than 7.5 Amps it must have its own fuse or circuit breaker, and no other device or unit should be operated on that fuse or circuit breaker. NOTE:The label lists the BTU capacity, amperage, voltage and refrigerant charge requirements.
For your personal safety, this portable air conditioner must be grounded. The portable air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord with a 3-prong grounding plug. To minimize possible electrical shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding type outlet, grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If a mating 3-prong type outlet is not available, it is the consumers responsibility to have a properly grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a licensed installer. It is the customers responsibility: • To contact a qualified electrical installer. • To assure that the electrical installation is adequate and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 – latest edition, and all local codes and ordinances. Copies of the standards listed may be obtained from: National Fire Protection Association Batterymatch Park Quincy, Massachusetts 02269. Or your state board of electricity. 1.6 RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD SECTION 1 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 5 A Leakage-Current Detect and Interrupt (LCDI) is a device that senses leakage current flowing between or fom the power conductors in an appliance cord and interrupts the circuit as a predetermined level of leakage current. Since an LCDI specifically can detect a current leakage flowing to ground, it provides ground fault protection from arcing and other problems, which arise due to leakage between conductors. LCDIs are covered under the UL 1699 standard for ARC Fault Current Interrupts, which was first published in June of 2002. LCDI devices have been mandated by the National Electric Code and Underwritten Laboratories for the cordsets on room air conditioners beginning in August 2004. Other classes of appliances will require LCDI protection in the near future. TESTING 1. Press test button, unit should trip. 2. Press reset button for use. NOTE: DO NOT USE IF ABOVE TEST FAILS. In the event this device trips, the cause of the malfunction is to be corrected before use of the device. CAUTION The conductors inside this cord are surrounded by shields, which monitor leakage current. THESE SHIELDS ARE NOT GROUNDED. Periodically examine the cord for any damage. DO NOT USE this product in the event the shields become exposed. WARNING This product contains chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling. 1.7 LCDI PLUG TECHNOLOGY (US ONLY)
