WARNING ABOUT GROUNDING
• Improper use of the grounding plug can re-
sult in the risk of electric shock.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces
the risk of an electric shock by providing a less
resistant conduit for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a
grounding wire connected to a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into a socket that is
properly installed and grounded.
• Do not under any circumstances cut or re-
move the round grounding pin from this plug.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if
the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in any doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
If a grounding adapter is used, make sure the
socket box is fully grounded.

USAGE CAUTIONS
• Ventilate the room periodically during use, especially if using gas appliances.
• Be sure to turn the unit off and disconnect the power supply cord before performing
any maintenance or cleaning.
• Do not splash or pour water directly onto the unit.
Water can cause electrical shock or equipment damage.
• Drainage should be performed whenever moving the air conditioner. (See Page 29)
If any water remains in the tank, it may spill out while being moved.
• Remove the window panel in the event of particularly adverse weather.
Extremely adverse weather may cause water to leak in through the openings.
• To ensure proper drainage, the drainage hose must have no kinks or be on a differ-
ent level during dehumidification mode.
The drained water may spill out into the room.
• The temperature around the drainage hose must not be below freezing point when
used.
Drained water may freeze inside the hose, causing water inside the unit to overflow into the
room.
• Do not block the exhaust air outlet with obstacles.
Cooling performance may be reduced or stop completely.
