ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION (CONT.)

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.

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).

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.

	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)

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).
