Possible Causes
The air conditioner
is unplugged.
The fuse is blown/circuit
breaker is tripped.
Power failure.
The current interrupter
device is tripped.
Airflow is restricted.
The temp control may not
be set correctly.
The air filter is dirty.
The room may have been hot.
Cold air is escaping.
Cooling coils have iced up.
Ice blocks the air flow and
stops the air conditioner
from cooling the room.
The batteries are inserted
incorrectly.
The batteries may be dead.
Excessively hot and
humid weather.
The air conditioner is not
tilted to the outside.
Moisture is removed from
indoor air and drains into
rear of a cabinet where a fan
blows it against the outdoor
condenser coil.
A power outage or interruption
occurred.
What To Do
• Make sure the air conditioner plug is pushed completely
into the outlet.
• Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace
the fuse or reset the breaker.
• The unit will automatically re-start in the settings last
used after the power is restored.
• There is a protective time delay (approximately 3 minutes)
to prevent tripping of the compressor overload. For this
reason, the unit may not start normal cooling for
3 minutes after it is turned back on.
• Press the RESET button located on the power cord plug.
• If the RESET button will not stay engaged, discontinue
use of the air conditioner and contact a qualified service
technician.
• Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture
blocking the front of the air conditioner.
• On models with touch pads: In the Cool mode, press the
Decrease ▼ pad.
• On models with control knobs, turn the temperature
knob to a higher number.
• Clean the filter at least every 30 days. See the
Care and Cleaning section.
• When the air conditioner is first turned on, you need to
allow time for the room to cool down.
• Check for open furnace floor registers and cold air returns.
• Set the air conditioner's vent to the closed position.
• See "Air conditioner freezing up" below.
• On models with control knobs, set the mode control at
High Fan or High Cool with the Temp at 1 or 2.
• On models with touch pads, set the controls at High Fan
or High Cool and set the thermostat to a higher
temperature.
• Check the position of the batteries. They should be
inserted in the opposite (+) and (–) direction.
• Replace the batteries.
• This is normal.
• For proper water disposal, make sure the air conditioner
slants slightly from the case front to the rear.
• This is normal for a short period in areas with little
humidity; normal for a longer period in very humid areas.
• The unit will automatically re-start in the settings last used
after the power is restored. If the Delay 1–24hr feature was
set, it will resume countdown. You may need to set a new
time if desired.
