Preparing to install the air conditioner.

with the air conditioner after installation is
completed.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
For personal safety, this air conditioner must
be properly grounded.
It is important to have the wall outlet and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician if
there is any doubt as to whether a proper
ground exists.
Follow National Electric Codes (NEC) and/or
local codes and ordinances.
CAUTION:
Do not, under any circumstances, cut
or remove the third (ground) prong
from the power cord.
Do not change the plug on the power
cord of this air conditioner.
Aluminum house wiring may present
special problems—consult a qualified
electrician.
Before You Begin
Some models require 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.
