UNPACKING

1. Carefully unpack the contents from the carton and remove the Air Exchange System from the

plastic bag.

2. Place the Air Exchange System

on a clean surface, with the front

grill facing down and slide the Window Sealing Frame off the

back of the unit. See Figure 1.

3. Remove the two Plastic Extender Panels from the plastic bags and

then remove the Foam Insulation Blocks from inside the Plastic Extender Panels.

4.Verify that you received all of the parts shown in Figure 2. If any parts are missing, please contact our consumer service depart- ment at 1-800-253-2764.

INSTALLATION

You must install the Window Sealing Frame into the track for your lower window sash before loading the Air Exchange System into the Window Sealing Frame.

1.Measure the frametrack for your lower window sash, at its widest point. See Figure 3.

Write your measurement here:____________

You may close the window temporarily.

2.If your window has a screen or storm window, measure the dis- tance between the front of the window (the side facing inside) to the screen or storm window. If that measurement is less than five (5) inches, you will need to remove the screen or storm win- dow before you can install the Window Sealing Frame.

3.Place the Window Sealing Frame on a flat surface, rim-side up, with the locking clamp away from you. See Figure 4.

4.Place the Plastic Extender Panel stamped LEFT, on the left side of the Window Sealing Frame and the Plastic Extender Panel stamped RIGHT on the right side. See Figure 5.

5.Slide the Plastic Extender Panels down into the guides on the sides of the Window Sealing Frame and press down gently until the Plastic Extender Panels click into place. See Figure 6.

7.Use the black marker to mark the number on each Plastic Extender Panel that is closest to (but not greater than), the measurement you recorded in Step 1. For example, if your win- dow is 33 inches wide, mark the number 32. See Figure 8.

8.Snap off each segment of the front of the Plastic Extender Panel

with a higher number than you
	Figure 8
marked. If you marked 32 in
step 8, you only will remove the
segments for 38, 36 and 34 and
three segments from the back of
the Plastic Extender Panel. Use
a forward and backward motion
to remove the excess sections
along the scored indications.
	Figure 9
See Figure 9. Remove the same
number of segments from the
back of the Plastic Extender
Panel.

Plastic Extender Panel.
10.Install the Foam Insulation
Blocks into the Plastic Extender
	Figure 10A
Panels. Note that the Foam
Insulation Blocks are divided into
vertical segments of various
widths. The foam is installed
with these segments oriented
vertically. See Figure 10A. Insert
a Foam Insulation Block into the
right Plastic Extender Panel. For
proper fit, the foam should be	Figure 10B
only slightly wider than the
Plastic Extender Panel. If the
foam is the exact size, rotate the
foam block to utilize the half-size
foam block on the opposite	Small
side. Reinstall the foam into the	Block	Large Blocks

Figure 10B.

the Window Sealing Frame.

17.Tighten the locking screw using a Phillips head screwdriver. Be careful to not over tighten. See Figure 14.

18.Install the appropriate window sill J- Hooks into the Window Sealing Frame. (See the parts list.) Slide the J-Hook until it is firmly seated against the mold- ing. See Figure 15.

NOTE: These hooks may not fit some older window moldings.

19.Install the Sash Insulation Strip as shown in Figure 16.

20.Before installing the Air Exchange Unit, verify that:

a)All foam strips are in place and that there are no visible gaps.

b) The window sash is firmly closed against the foam strip on top of the Window Sealing Frame.

c)The locking clamp tightly grips the window sash.

d)The foam blocks are tightly sealed against the window frame.

e)If used, the window sill J-Hooks are secured to the window sill.

f)Sash Insulation strip is in place.

g)Use the extra foam strips or segments to fill in any visible gaps. 21.Slide the Air Exchange Unit into the Window Sealing Frame and

push until it locks (clicks) into place.

22.For maximum efficiency, you will need to know the size of the room in square feet. (Measure room length and width in feet and multiply. Length X Width=Room Size in Sq. Ft.)

NOTE: When you use the unit for the first time, there may be a slight residual odor from the manufacturing process. This will disap- pear with use.

For best efficiency, we recommend that you program your system to the size of your room.

4.Refer the room measurement you made in step 22 of the Installation Instructions.

Your room is:

Small if it is 90 -159 sq. ft. Medium if it is 160-249 sq. ft Large if it is 250-399 sq. ft.

5.Press and hold the Mode button (2) and the Heat Balance but- ton (3) for three seconds, until the word small flashes.

6.Release the Mode button (2) and press the Heat Balance button

(3)until the desired room size is displayed.

The unit has three motor speeds plus OFF: Normal, Low, Turbo, OFF.

Press the mode button (2) repeatedly until the desired motor speed is displayed. The Air Exchange System is equipped with a Heat Balance setting. When this setting is on, the system equalizes the outside air it draws in to the air temperature of the room.

To Turn on the Heat Balance setting: Press the Heat Balance button (3) once.
