INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Installing the FRIEDRICH USC sleeve ensures optional performances of the unit.

If you decide to keep the existing wall sleeve, you have to redirect the louvers at the back of the wall sleeve. Refer to FIG. 8 on p14. The use of pliers is recommended. If you DO NOT redirect, you run the risk of poor performance or premature product failure. This is not covered under the terms of the FRIEDRICH warranty.

•Pick a location which will allow the conditioned air to blow into the area you want. Good installation with special attention to the proper position of the unit will lessen the chance that service will be needed.
