Friedrich SQ08N10 Manuale Utente

Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top performing condition by 

cleaning the filter regularly.

Make sure the airflow to and from the unit is clear. Your air conditioner puts the 

conditioned air out at the top of the unit, and takes in unconditioned air at the 

bottom. Airflow is critical to good operation. It is just as important on the outside 

of the building that the airflow around the unit exterior is not blocked.

If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or wall that is shaded by a tree 

or another building, the unit will operate even more efficiently. Using drapes or 

blinds on the sunny side of the dwelling will also add to your unit’s efficiency.

Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable comfort levels. 

Doors should have weather stripping. Be sure to caulk around doors and 

windows.

Make sure the seal gasket has been installed properly to minimize noise and 

improve efficiency. If the chassis seal gasket has not been installed, please 

refer to Step 14 of the installation instructions.

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.

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

unit; an extension cord may not.

This insures proper grounding. If you have a two prong receptacle you 

will need to have it replaced with a grounded receptacle by a certi¿ ed 

electrician. The grounded receptacle should meet all national and local 

codes and ordinances. Under no circumstances should you remove the 

ground prong from the plug. You must use the three prong plug furnished 

with the air conditioner.

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

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

LCDI device meets the UL and NEC requirements for cord connected air 

conditioners effective August 2004.

To test your power supply cord:

Plug power supply cord into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Press RESET (See Figure 1).

Press TEST, listen for click; the RESET button trips and pops out.

Press and release RESET (Listen for click; RESET button latches 

and remains in).  The power cord is ready for use.

Once plugged in, the unit will operate normally without the need to reset 

Note: The LCDI device is not intended to be used as an ON/OFF switch.

the LCDI device.  
If the LCDI device fails to trip when tested or if the power supply cord is 

damaged, it must be replaced with a new power supply cord from the 

  .
