Because your air conditioner weighs from 110 to 200 pounds, it is recommended that you have someone help you when you remove and re-install your unit and that you both use proper lifting techniques.

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

Do not use the collected water for drinking purposes. lt is not sanftary.

Failure to follow the above precautions could result in electrical shock, product damage or personal injury.

1. Unplug power cord.

2Remove front panel. (See page 5 for instructions.)

3.Slide unit out of cabinet by using the handle in the center of the base flange.

4.Wrap the motor, connector plug, electrical control box and compressor terminal box in plastic film and make sure no water or other liquid gets inside any of these parts. It could damage the insulation and cause serious mechanical problems.

5.Carefully clean and hose out the base, con- denser coils and condensate pans. Clean at least once a year-or more often if the con- denser coil and pan collects dirt, sand, leaves, insects or algae. Also, clean if you detect an odor coming from the air condiiioner.

6.Remove plastic film from motor and electrical parts.

7.Replace unit in cabinet.

6.Replace front panel.

9.Plug in power cord.

NOTE: ft is a good idea to wait 24 hours before starting the unit again. This allows for all areas to dry out. The water from rainfall or from normal operation does not harm these components.
