If you have fuses, they should be of the time delay type. Before you install or relocate this unit, be sure that

the amperage rating of the circuit breaker or time delay fuse does not exceed the amp rating listed in figure 1.

DO NOT use an extension cord.

For the Best Cooling Performance and Energy Efficiency

Keep the filter clean

Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top performing condition by cleaning the filter regularly.

Instructionsfor removing and cleaningthe filter can be found on page 6.

Provide good airflow

Make sure that the airflowto and from the unit is dear. Your air conditioner puts the air out at the top of

the unit, and takes in air at the bottom. Airflow is critical for good operation. It is just as important on the

outside ofthe building that the airflow around the unit exterior is not blocked.

Unit Placement

If your air conditioner can be placed in a windowor a wallthat is shaded by a tree or another building,the

unit will operate even more efficiently. Using drapes or blinds on the sunny side of the dwelling will also

add to your unit's efficiency.

Insulation

Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable comfort levels. Doors should have weather

stripping. Be sureto caulk around doors and windows.

Installation Instructions

Window Requirements

NOTE:All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood, masonry, or metal.

1. This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung windows with actual opening widths of

22"to 36". The upper and lowersash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 14"

from the bottom of the sash to the window sill.

2.If stormwindow presents interference, fasten a 2" widewood strip (OUTER SILL) to the inner

window sillacross the full width of the sill.The wood strip should bethick enough to raise the height

of the window sill so that the unit can be installed without interference by the storm window frame.

See Fig. 5-2. Top of wood strip should be approximately 3/4" higher than the storm window frame

(STORM WINDOW FRAME)or wood strip (OUTDOORS) to help condensation to drain properlyto

the outside.

3. Installa second wood strip (approximately 6" long by 11/2"wide and same thickness asfirst strip) in

the center of the outer sill flush against the back off the inner sill. This will raisethe L bracket as

shown Fig. 5-2.

4. If the distance between STORMWINDOW FRAMEand WOOD STRIP MOUNTEDON TOPOF

INNER SILL is more than 1",two of wood stripare not necessary.
