The rated cooling Amps (AHAM) for this unit are 4.9, and the maximum voltage is 115 so the watts are 563.5. If information on the running amps is needed, we would recommend checking the rating plate on the appliance. Please note that air conditioners will also use a brief surge of power when the compressor cycles on. These ‘start-up’ amps will be about 2 to 3 times the running amps.

It says in the specs: 115 volts, 4.9 amps. Volts x amps = watts, so 115 x 4.9 = 564 watts. But that's maximum if the fan is on high.
