AIR CONDITIONER DOES | • Not plugged in. Plug may have been bumped loose by vacuum cleaner or |
NOT OPERATE | furniture. |
| • If plugged in, fuse could have blown or circuit breaker may have been tripped. |
|
|
AIR CONDITIONER | • Curtains, blinds or furniture blocking front of air conditioner will restrict air |
“DOES NOT HEAT OR | flow. |
COOL AS IT SHOULD” | • Thermostat Control may not be set high or low enough. Also, when Fan Switch |
| is at CYCLE, the temperature in the room will vary more than when it’s at |
| CONTINUOUS. Turn knob to another number. Highest setting should provide |
| maximum cooling. The lowest setting should provide maximum heating. |
| • Air filter dirty, should be cleaned at least every 30 days. |
| • Room may have been very hot or cold when air conditioner was first turned on. |
| Allow time for it to cool down or warm up. |
| • Conditioned air may be escaping through open furnace floor registers and cold |
| air returns. |
| • Cooling coils have iced up. To melt ice, set the Fan at high speed and the |
| Thermostat Control to a lower number. |
|
|
WATER LEAKS INSIDE | • Air conditioner is not installed level. Install level or tilt slightly toward the |
| outside. |
|
|
WATER LEAKS OUTSIDE | • Excess water may overflow in extremely hot and humid weather. |
| This is normal. |
|
|
NOISY OPERATION | • When compressor or fan switches on and off, a metallic knock may be heard. |
| This is normal. |
| • Something is hitting or vibrating inside the cabinet. Turn off air conditioner and |
| consult your dealer. |
