STEP 3:
INSTALL THE AIR CONDITIONER IN THE WINDOW
• Open window and mark center of window sill (See FIG. 8.)
• Place cabinet in window. Bring window down temporarily behind upper guide to hold cabinet in place. Shift cabinet
left or right, as needed, to line up center of cabinet with the center line marked on sill.
This may require 2 people.
• Check that the air conditioner is tilted back approximately 3°~4° downward to the outside.
If the condensation does not
drain after installation, adjust the slope.
(See FIG. 9.)
• Fasten cabinet to window sill with 3 wood screws (B) into holes. (You may wish to pre-drill pilot holes.)
• Attach bottom rail seal over screws to window sill. (See FIG. 10.)
