Installation Instructions

  PREPARE THE AIR CONDITIONER 

(cont.)

Remove the backing from the accordion 

seal (two short strips). Stick one sealing strip 

respectively on the left side and right side of 

the accordion panels, as shown.

Slide the free end of the accordion panel into 

the side panel rails. Slide the panel down. Be 

sure to leave enough space to slip the top 

and bottom of the frame into the rails on the 

cabinet.  

NOTE:

 There is a right and a left accordion 

panel. Be sure to use the proper panel for each 

side.

Slide the left and right accordion panels into 

the top and bottom mounting rails.

  INSTALL THE AIR CONDITIONER IN 

THE WINDOW

Place the air conditioner on the sill with the 

bottom mounting rail against its back edge. 

Center it and close the window securely behind 

the top mounting rail.  It should be level or 

slightly tilted to the outside. Use a level; about 

a 1/3 bubble will be the correct case slant to the 

outside.

Extend the left and right accordion panels to 

the vertical window sashes and attach, through 

the holes in the panels, with 5 Type B screws, 

as appropriate.
