How to Secure the Drain Pipe
1. To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the unit is installed
securely and firmly.
2. Install the unit where the sun does not shine directly on the
unit.
3. The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for at least
12" and there should be no obstacles, such as a fence or
wall, within 20" from the back of the cabinet because it will
prevent heat radiation of the condenser.
Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce the cooling effi-
ciency of the air conditioner.
CAUTION: All side louvers of the cabinet must
remain exposed on the outdside of the structure.
4. Install the unit slanted slightly so the back is slightly lower
than the front (about 1 /
4
"). This will force condensed water
to the outside.
5. Install the unit with the bottom about 30"~60" above the
floor level.
The setting conditions must be checked prior to initial starting.
The following items are especially important checking points when the installation is finished.
1. Grounding wire (Green or Green and Yellow) is provided in the power cord. The green wire must be grounded.
2. Connect to a single-outlet 15A circuit.
(or 20A circuit for Electric Heater Model)
3. To avoid vibration or noise, make sure the air conditioner is installed securely.
4 Avoid placing furniture or draperies in front of the air inlet and outlet.
In humid weather, excess water may cause the Base Pan to
overflow. To drain the water, remove the Drain Cap and secure
the Drain Pipe to the rear hole of the Base Pan. (Figure. 2)
