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.
