        Choose the proper window location.
Choose a window that allows the cooled air to flow freely and directly into 
room(s) you wish to cool. Remember, it is difficult to move air around 
corners. Also, choose a window that is within 6 feet of an electrical outlet 
as shown (FIG.5). (See Meeting Electrical Requirements/Receptacle wiring 
needs.)

Do not use an extension cord.
