o All wall sleeves used to mount the newAir Conditioner must be in sound structural condition and have a rear

grille that securely attaches to sleeve, or rear flange that serves as a stop for the Air Conditioner.

o When installation is complete, replacement unit MUST have a rearward slope as shown in Fig.1.

2. Remove old Air Conditioner from wall sleeve and prepare wall sleeve as follows:

* Clean interior (do not disturb seals).

* Wall sleeve must be securely fastened in wall before installing Air Conditioner. Drive more nails or screws through

sleeve, into wall, if needed.

* Retouch wall sleeve painted surface if needed.

.If not existing, drill a 3/16" clearance hole for grounding screw through left side of wall sleeve, in a clear area about

3 inches maximum back from front edge of sleeve, using grounding screw and toothed washer. Pull loose end

of ground wire out front of sleeve, and temporarily bend it down and around lower edge of sleeve (Fig.2). This

ground wire will later be attached to frame of air conditioner once it is installed.
