RECOMMENDED SOLUTIONS
Make sure the power supply cord is plugged into a
grounded 3 prong outlet.
Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace
the fuse or reset the breaker.
The unit will automatically restart when power is
restored. There is a protective time delay (approximately
3 minutes) to prevent tripping of the compressor
overload. The unit may not start normal cooling for
3 minutes after it is turned back on.
Press the reset button located on the power cord plug.
If the reset button will not stay engaged, discontinue
use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified service
technician.
Make sure there are no curtains, blinds, or furniture
blocking the front of the air conditioner.
Lower the set thermostat temperature.
Clean the filter. See the "Air Conditioner Care" section.
Allow time for the room to cool down after turning on the
air conditioner.
Close all open doors and/or windows where warm air
may be entering.
See "The Air Conditioner Is Freezing Up" below.
Turn off the unit and allow it to thaw until the ice has
melted, then operate on a higher fan speed. If this
continues to occur, contact customer service for
additional help.
Check that the batteries are inserted in the correct
direction.
Replace the batteries and dispose of them in a
responsible manner.
