INSTALLATION

How to Install the unit

1. To avoid vibration and noise, make sure the unit is

installed securely and firmly.

2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not shine directly

on the unit.
If the unit receives direct sunlight, build an awning to
shade the cabinet.

3. There should be no obstacle, like a fence, within 20"

which might restrict heat radiation from the condenser.

4. To prevent reducing performance, install the unit so that

louvers of the cabinet are not blocked.

5. Install the unit a little obliquely outward not to leak the

condensed water into the room (about 1/2" or 1/4 bubble
with level).

6. Install the unit with its bottom portion 30~60" above the

floor level.

7. Stuff the foam between the top of the unit and the wall to

prevent air and insects from getting into the room.

8. The power cord must be connected to an independent cir-

cuit. The green wire must be grounded.

9. Connect the drain tube to the base pan hole in the rear

side if you need to drain (consult a dealer).
Plastic hose or equivalent may be connected to the drain
tube.

The grille is designed to clean the filter both upward and downward.

A. BEFORE ATTACHING THE FRONT GRILLE TO THE CAB-

INET, IF YOU WANT TO PULL OUT THE FILTER
UPWARD;

1. Open the inlet grille slightly (a).
2. Turn inside out the front grille (a).
3. Disassemble the inlet grille from the front grille with separating the

hinged part by inserting a straight type screw-driver tip (b).

4. Then, rotate the inlet grille 180 degrees and insert the hooks into

bottom holes of the front grille.

5. Insert the filter and attach the front grille to the cabinet.

B. IF YOU WANT TO PULL OUT THE FILTER DOWNWARD;

THE GRILLE IS ALREADY DESIGNED FOR THAT WAY.
