USE OF EXTENSION
CORDSillS-Volt
models
WARNING! Risk o_ e/ectric shock
Can cause injury or death.
We strongly recommend against the use
of an extension cord.
If you must use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-
listed, 14-gauge, 3-wire grounding-type
appliance extension cord having a
grounding-type plug and outlet and that the
electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 125 volts.
DO NOT use an extension cord with any
of the 2:30/208-volt models.
USE OF ADAPTER
PLUGS--llS-Volt
models
,& WARNING! Risk o_e/ectric
shock
Can cause injury or death.
We strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug.
If you must use an adapter, where local
codes permit, a temporary connection
may be made to a properly grounded
2-prong wall outlet by use of a UL-Iisted
adapter available at most local hardware
stores.
_:,The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall outlet
to provide proper polarity in the connection
of the power cord.
_:,When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in
place with one hand while pulling the power
cord plug with the other hand. If this is not
done, the adapter ground terminal is very
likely to break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE the air conditioner until a
proper ground has been established.
*:, Attaching the adapter ground terminal
to a wall outlet cover screw does not
ground the appliance unless the cover
screw is metal, not insulated, and the wall
outlet is grounded through the house wiring.
You should have the circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
