Please read ALL instructions before installing. Two people are recommended to install this product.
If a new electrical outlet is required, have the outlet installed by a qualified electrician before
installing unit.
Preliminary Instructions
1. Check window opening size-- the mounting
parts furnished with this air conditioner are
made to install in a wooden sill double-hung
window. The standard parts are for window
dimensions listed above. Open sash to a mini-
mum of 19 inches(483mm). See Fig.1.
2.Check condition of window-- all wood parts of
window must be in good shape and able to firmly
hold the needed screws. If not, make repairs
before installing unit.
3. Check your storm windows-- if your storm
window frame does not allow the clearance
required, correct by adding a piece of wood as
shown in FIG. 2,or by removing storm window
while room air conditioner is being installed.
4 .Check for anything that could block airflow--
check area outside of window for things such as
shrubs, trees, or awnings. Inside, be sure
furniture, drapes, or blinds will not stop proper
airflow.
5.Check the available electrical service- Power
supply must be the same as that shown on the
unit serial nameplate. Power cord is 48 inches
long. Be sure you have an outlet near. Do not
use an extension cord.
6.Carefully unpack air conditioner- Remove all
packing material. Cover floor during installation
to prevent damage. Two people should be used
to move and install unit.
