ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

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.
These models require 230/208-volt AC, 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.
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.
