being raised which may result in unit falling.as shown

in FIG.10.

metal screws instead of the provided wood screws. Obtain sheet metal screws at local hardware store.

Sash lock and filler panels screws must be installed as instructed to avoid the possibility of unit falling from window

and causing personal injury or property damage.

IF AIR CONDITIONER IS BLOCKED BY STORM WINDOW

FRAME:

If storm window presents interference, fasten a 2" (51 mm)

wide wood strip to the inner window sill across the full width

of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raise

the height of the window sill so that unit can be installed

without interference from the storm window frame, See

FIG.11. Top of wood strip should be approximately 718"

(22mm) higher than the storm window frame to help

condensation to drain properly to the outside.

Install a second wood strip (approximately 6" (152mm) long

by 1-1/2" (38mm) wide and same thickness as the first strip)

in the center of the outer sill flush against the back of the

inner sill. See FIG.11.
