For personal safety, this appliance must be
properly grounded,
DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped
_dth a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates
_dth a standard &prong (grounding) wall

shock hazard from this appliance.
Power cord includes a current interrupter
dex,ice. A test and reset button is prox,ided on
the plug case. The dex;ice should be tested on a
periodic basis by first pressing the YESYbutton
and then the RESEYbutton while plugged into
the outlet. If the TESrbutmn does not trip
or it the RESETbutmn _dll not stay engaged,
discontinue use of the air conditioner and
contact a qualified serx,ice technician.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by
a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encounmred,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall oudet.
The air conditioner should always be plugged
into its own indix,idual electrical outlet which
has a voltage rating that matches the rating

prevents overloading house wiring circuits
which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
