SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The appliance must be connected to a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug connected to the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED APPLIANCE RATED LESS THAN 15A AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A NOMINAL 120V SUPPLY CIRCUIT
The appliance is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be connected to a grounding outlet that looks like the one illustrated below. The use of a temporary adapter is not recommended.

  3. Press the TEST button, the circuit should trip and cut all power to the air conditioner (on some units green light may turn off).
  4. Press the RESET button for use. You will hear a click and the A/C is ready for use.
  5. The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to trip when the TEST button is pressed and the unit fails to reset.

NOTE:

  • Do not use this device to turn the unit on or off.
  • Always make sure the reset button is pushed in for correct operation.

WARNING:

  • The power supply cord must be replaced if it fails to reset when either the test button is pushed, or it cannot be reset.
  • If power supply cord is damaged, it cannot be repaired.
  • It must be replaced by one obtained from the product manufacturer.
