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 perform-
ing 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 26)
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 dehumidifi cation 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 overfl ow into
the room.
• Do not block the exhaust air outlet with obstacles.
Cooling performance may be reduced or stop completely.
Grounded

• Improper use of the grounding plug can result 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 ground-
ing plug. The plug must be plugged into a socket that is properly installed and grounded.
