For Deep Wall Installation See Section II

The following instructions apply ONLY to walls less than 13 1/4" in depth.

1.From inside the building, position the wall sleeve in the opening and push it through the wall so it protrudes at least 1/4" on the outside, note Figure 5.

2.Position the wall sleeve with a slight tilt towards the outside to facilitate condensate drainage. It should be level side-to-side and the front should be 1/4 bubble higher than the back. DO NOT allow any pitch toward the inside.

Electrical shock hazard.

Turn electric power OFF at the fuse box or service panel before making any electrical connections and ensure a proper ground connection is made before connecting line voltage. Failure to do so can result in property damage, personal injury and/or death.
