Handle the air conditioner with care. Watch out for the sharp metal fins on the front and rear coils.

Be sure your air conditioner does not fall out of the opening during installation.

l Do not install the air conditioner in an area where the front panel will be exposed to heat sources that will raise the panel surface temperature above 120°F (50°C).

Window installation

1.Remove the ground wire and screw from the front of the unit base. Save grounding screw for reattachment in Step 23.

2.Attach 3/g” (10 mm) seal strip (A) to bottom of both side mounting brackets (sides with screw holes). Cut strips to length and save extra for use later.

3.Attach side mounting brackets (B) to cabinet. Place side mounting brackets on cabinet so bent edge is toward front of cabinet. Attach each with 2 hex-head metal screws (C).

4.Slide unit out of cabinet. Grasp handle and slide unit straight out of cabinet. Place unit on cardboard to protect your floor.

5.Place empty cabinet in window. Lower window sash to hold cabinet in place. Make sure the cabinet is centered in the window opening.

6.Measure width of window channel and subtract thickness of filler board. Cut foam blocks 1/4”(6 mm) wider than this measurement. The blocks will be used later in Step 15.

7.Determine proper size for filler board

(D). Measure the distance from the right edge of the cabinet to the inside of the right window channel. Then add KY”

(3 mm) to that measurement. Repeat for left side.
