If You Need Service Or Assistance
We suggest you follow
these steps:
1. Before calling for assistance ...
Performance problems often result from little things you
can find and fix yourself without toois of any kind.
Air conditioner won’t run:
• is unit piugged into a iive circuit with proper voitage?
• is switch turned on?
• is Thermostat Controi set correctiy?
• Has a househoid fuse biown or a circuit breaker
tripped?
• Has the iocai power faiied?
Unit biows fuses or trips circuit breaker:
• Are time-deiay fuses being used?
• Is an extension cord being used?
(Do not use an
extension cord to run your air conditioner.)
• Are you waiting three minutes after turning cooiing
circuit off before trying to restart unit?
Unit turns on and off, or does not cooi or heat
room:
• is fiiter ciean?
• Are coiis clean (both evaporator [inside] and
condenser [outside])?
• is there excessive moisture or heat (open vessei
cooking, showers, etc.)?
• Try setting fan to higher speed.
• Try setting Thermostat Controi to a cooier setting.
• is the outside temperature below 45°F?
Operating sounds:
• When your room air conditioner is operating
normally, you will hear sounds such as:
- Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a
“pinging” or “clicking” sound. Water droplets help to
cool the condenser.
- Air movement from the fan, especially on high fan
speed setting.
- Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
• Sounds also may be caused by house construction-
such as vibration of the unit due to wall construction
or unsteady window mounting area.
