INSTALL CASE LEVEL IN ALL DIRECTIONS
NOTES:
•
Handle the case carefully.
•
The cardboard stiffener inside the case, and the rear
protective panel must remain in place until the chassis
is installed to assure case rigidity and squareness.
•
If a sub-base is to be used, it may be desirable to
assemble it to the case before securing the case
in the wall.
CASE LOCATION
Case must be located on an outside wall for proper
operation. As a general rule the air conditioner
should be centrally located in an outside wall to
ensure proper distribution of conditioned air. It should
be located in a portion of the wall where there is no
electrical wiring or plumbing, and where there are no
obstructions immediately inside or outside.
