WINDOW INSTALLATION
Use caution when unpacking and installing. Sharp edges can cause injury.
Appearance of unit in these diagrams is for illustrative purposes only and may not precisely
reflect your unit’s design.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. Check for anything that could block airflow
: Any shrubs, trees, awnings on the
outside; blinds, drapes, furniture, etc. on the inside. It is critically important that
none of the outside vents (sides or rear) be blocked by anything including installing
this air conditioner in an existing enclosure or through a wall that is so thick that the
outside side vents get blocked. Any of these blockages will reduce or even eliminate
the effectiveness of all functions besides the Fan Only mode.
2. Make sure you have met the electrical requirements of the unit
: Your unit
should have a dedicated outlet nearby. The cord length is 78 inches. Each unit
has the power requirements and plug type listed on the box and also on the silver
rating label affixed to the right-hand-side of the unit itself. It is important to note
that if your unit runs on 208/230Volts, you will need a dedicated 208/230Volt outlet.
If you don't already have one, a qualified electrician will be required to install a new
outlet, breaker and possibly wiring. A new outlet alone will not work without these
other upgrades. Do not use an extension cord with this unit.
3. Be careful when unpacking the unit and get assistance from a second person
:
Care should be taken to always keep the unit upright. Remember, if the unit was
shipped to you on its side or upside-down, be sure to keep it in the upright position
for 24 hours before use.
STEP 1: REMOVAL OF THE CHASSIS
This larger air conditioner requires that you remove the unit (chassis) from its housing
(cabinet), install the cabinet in the window (or wall), cut some internal packing materials,
and then slide the chassis back into the cabinet. The instructions that follow will take you
through everything in order. It is important to follow all of the steps presented here.
1. Pull down the front grille and remove the air filter (See Fig. A).
2. Lift the front grille upwards to dislodge it from the chassis and place to once side.
3. Locate the four front screws securing the front panel and remove. Guard these
screws as they will later be needed to reinstall the front panel (See Fig. B)
4. The front panel is additionally held in place by plastic clips. To dislodge the panel,
