Installation
(cont’d)
Remove air conditioning unit and accessories from box. Save box to use for storage
of unit during the winter or when not in use for long periods of time.
1. Upper Guide
Secure the Upper Guide (Item E) to the top of the air conditioner using the 3 screws
(Item A) provided.
When the air conditioner is properly installed it should tilt back and down on the
outside of the window. If it does not, there is a problem with the installation. Correct
installation allows for proper drainage of the condensation.
6. Secure Guide Panels
Fasten the top of the guide panels to the sash with 3 screws (Item B). Use the
remaining 2 screws (Item B) to secure the bottom of the guide panels to the
window sill.
2. Guide Panels
Extend the curtains in the left and right guide panels (Items C & D). Fit them into
the T-shaped groove on each side of the unit, and slide into place.
3. Foam Strip
Cut the adhesive-backed foam strip (Item F) to the width of the window. Remove
backing from foam and attach strip to the underside of the window.
4. Window Center
With the window open, find and mark the center line of the inner sill.
CAUTION: Hold unit firmly until window sash is lowered to top channel behind the
upper guide. Personal injury or property damage may result if the air conditioner
falls from the window.
5. Install Air Conditioner in Window
Carefully fit the unit into the open window, lining up the center of the unit with the
center line on the sill.
Firmly hold on to unit while lowering the window sash down
behind the upper guide.
Extend side curtains to fill the open window.
If AC is blocked by storm window frame, fasten a 2" wide wood strip to the inner
window sill across the full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough
to raise the height of the window sill so that the unit can be installed without
interference from the storm window frame (approximately 3/4-inch above storm
window frame).
Install a second wood strip (approximately 6" long by 1 1/2" wide and the same
thickness as the first wood strip) in the center of the outer sill. Place it flush against
the back of the inner sill.
Insert foam strip (Item G) in
the space between the window
sill and the bottom of the air
conditioner.
