INSTALLING THE UNIT IN A CASEMENT WINDOW (CONT.)
11. Cut side channel seal
into 2 equal lengths.
Remove the protective backing and apply it to
the rear side of the cabinet side channels,
starting just below the panel frame assembly.
Pinch off excess length so the seal is even with
the bottom of the cabinet side channel.
12. To Remove the Front Panel
1. Remove the two front retaining screws from
the front frame.
2. Press firmly on each side of the metal case
close to the front, approximately 2/3 of the way
down.
3. While pressing on the sides of the metal
case, gently pull the front out and lift up to re-
lease it from the case.
4. Then remove the four screws from the front
frame to release the control panel box.
NOTE: DO NOT push or pull the air direction
louvers.
13. Place the air conditioner in the window
opening as shown to the right. It should sit
on the platform assembly so that the window
panel frame, and the cabinet side channels are
against the top and side window jambs. Side
channels should overlap side window jambs
equally.
14. Drill two 9/64-inch diameter pilot holes
in
the top window jamb in line with the partially
plugged holes in the panel frame. Secure the
panel fame to the window jamb with two #8-
32x3/4-inch self-threading screws. If additional
holding is necessary, two screws may be used
on the sides of the panel frame as well.
15. Drill two screw-clearance holes in the cabi-
net side channels (near bottom) and two 9/64-
inch diameter pilot holes in the side window
jambs. Secure the cabinet side channels to the
window jambs with two #8-32x3/4-inch self-
threading screws. When doing this, be careful
not to twist the side channel seals with the
screws.
NOTE: Inserting screws will prevent the air
conditioner from being pushed into the room.
16. To replace the front
First reconnect the coupler plugs, make the
exhaust control positioned through the front
in the proper location. Gently push the front into position on the cabinet. It
should click into place. Then replace the retaining screws
that holds the panel in place.
