Storm Window Requirements
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to
tilt properly which in turn will keep it from draining properly.
To adjust for this, attach a board or piece of wood to the
sill. The board or wood piece should have a depth of at
least 1 1/2”. Make sure the board or piece of wood is ap-
proximately 1/2” higher than the storm window frame. This
will allow the air conditioner to tilt enough for proper drain-
age. (See FIG. 2).
Placing the Unit Inside a Window
1. Place the air conditioner on the sill with the bottom
mounting rail against its back edge. Center the air con-
ditioner and close the window securely behind the top
mounting rail. The air conditioner should be slightly
tilted to the outside area. Use a level; about a 1/3 bub-
ble will be the correct case slant to the outside. (See
FIG. 5 & FIG. 6)
2. Once the air conditioner is placed, extend both the left
and right accordion panels to the width of the window.
Accordion Panel Installation
Now that you have installed the top rail, you can now install
the accordion panels on each side.
1. Place the air conditioner on a hard flat surface.
2. Locate the accordion panels in the box.
3. Gently pull the free end of the accordion panel (See
FIG. 2). Do this for both panels.
4. Slide the free end of the accordion panel into the side
panel of the air conditioner (See FIG. 3). Do this for
each side.
5. Once the accordion panels are slid into place adjust
the top and bottom rails of the accordion panels into
the top and bottom rails of the air conditioner (See FIG.
4).
