You have purchased a marine air conditioner that will add to
your boating enjoyment. Please read the accompanying
instructions to insure proper installation, operation and care.
Warnings
The use of the Carry-On™ is not recommended while the
boat is under way because of the potential for damage to the
Carry-On or the boat or the potential for personal injury.
The National Electrical Code recommends the use of a cord
labeled with LCDI or AFCI when connecting a room air
conditioner to power. LCDI stands for Leakage Current
Detection and Interruption; AFCI stands for Arc Fault Circuit
Interruption. Both help prevent fires and electrical shock.
Dometic recommends that you contact your dealer and
request part LCDI25 (25' cord) or purchase a similar cord
from another supplier.
The Carry-On unit weighs 77 lbs (34.9 kg). Please get assis-
tance when moving or lifting the Carry-On to prevent injury.

manufacturer of that item is best suited for that task. Damage
to a unit caused by an inadequate inverter/generator is not
