ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Some models require a 115/120-volt a.c.,
60 Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the
possibility of electric shock hazard. If the wall
outlet you plan to use is only a 2-prong outlet,
it is your responsibility to have it replaced
with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Some models require 230/208-volt a.c.,
protected with a time delay fuse or
circuit breaker. These models should
be installed on their own single
branch circuit for best performance
and to prevent overloading house or
apartment wiring circuits, which could
cause a possible fire hazard from
overheating wires.
Power cord includes a current interrupter
device. A test and reset button is provided on
the plug case. The device should be tested on
a periodic basis by first pressing the TEST
button and then the RESET button. If the TEST
button does not trip or if the RESET button will
not stay engaged, discontinue use of the air
conditioner and contact a qualified service
technician.
