Carry-On 7000 Portable Air Conditioners • Introduction

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.
