NOTICE

Do not use the LCDI device as an ON/OFF switch.
Failure to adhere to this precaution may cause

premature equipment malfunction.

Make sure the wiring is adequate for your unit.

If you have fuses, they should be of the time delay type. Before you install

or relocate this unit, be sure that the amperage rating of the circuit breaker

or time delay fuse does not exceed the amp rating listed in Table 1.

DO NOT use an extension cord.

The cord provided will carry the proper amount of electrical power to the

unit; an extension cord may not.

Make sure that the receptacle is compatible with the air

conditioner cord plug provided.

Proper grounding must be maintained at all times. Two prong receptacles

must be replaced with a grounded receptacle by a certified electrician.
The grounded receptacle should meet all national and local codes and

ordinances. You must use the three prong plug furnished with the air

conditioner. Under no circumstances should you remove the ground

prong from the plug.

Test the power cord.

All Friedrich room air conditioners are shipped from the factory with a

Leakage Current Detection Interrupter (LCDI) equipped power cord. The

LCDI device on the end of the cord meets the UL and NEC requirements

for cord connected air conditioners.
