IMPORTANTE - MÉTODO DE CONEXIÓN A TIERRA
This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three-pronged grounded plug. It must
be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and
applicable local codes and ordinances. If the circuit does not have a grounding type receptacle, it is the
responsibility and obligation of the customer to exchange the existing receptacle in accordance with the
National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. The third ground prong should not,
under any circumstances, be cut or removed. Never use the cord, the plug or the appliance when they show
any sign of damage. Do not use your appliance with an extension cord unless it has been checked and test-
ed by a qualified electrician or electrical supplier.
IMPORTANT - GROUNDING METHOD
Ce produit arrive d’origine avec un cordon d’alimentation équipé d’une prise à trois fiches. Il doit être
branché dans une prise avec une fiche de mise à la terre en conformité avec le Code national de l’électricité
et les codes et règles locaux applicables. Si la prise murale n’a pas de mise à la terre, il est de la
responsabilité et l’obligation du client de changer la prise existante pour la rendre conforme au Code
national de l’électricité et aux codes et règles locaux applicables. La fiche de mise à la terre ne doit pas, en
aucune circonstance, être coupée ou retirée. Si vous apercevez des signes de dommage, n’utilisez jamais le
cordon d’alimentation, la prise ou l’appareil. N’utilisez jamais l’appareil avec une rallonge sauf si elle a été
vérifiée et testée par un électricien qualifié ou un fournisseur de matériel électrique.

FEATURES
Your appliance is designed to be highly efficient in energy savings. Follow these recommendations for greater effi-
ciency.
1. Select a thermostat setting that suits your comfort needs and leave at that chosen setting.
2. The air filter is very efficient in removing airborne particles. Keep the air filter clean at all times. (Usually cleaned every
2 weeks depending on indoor air quality.)
3. Use drapes, curtains or shades to keep direct sunlight from penetrating and heating the room, but do not allow drapes
or curtains to obstruct the air flow around the unit.
4. Start your air conditioner before the outdoor air becomes hot, to avoid an initial period of discomfort while the unit is
cooling the room.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION:
• Screwdrivers: Phillips and flat head.
• Power Drill: 1/8” (3.2mm) diameter drill bit
• Pencil
• Measuring Tape
• Scissors
• Carpenter’s Level
NOTE: Save the shipping carton and packing materials for future storage or transportation. From
the carton, remove the plastic bag containing the installation hardware kit necessary for the in-
stallation of your air conditioner. Please check the contents of the hardware kit against the corre-
sponding model check list, prior to installation of the unit. See Fig. 1.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
To avoid the possibility of personal
injury, disconnect power to the unit
before installing or servicing.
NOTE: Your RoomAir Conditioner is designed for easy installation in a single or double-hung window. This unit is NOT
designed for vertical (slider type) windows and/or through-the-wall applications.
Because the compressor is located on the controls side of the unit (left side), this side
will be heavier and more awkward to manipulate. Inadequate support on control side of
the unit can result in personal injury and damage to your unit and property. Therefore, it
is recommended that you have someone assist you during the installation of this unit.

INSTALLATION
HARDWARE

1. This room air conditioner is designed to fit easily into a single or double hung window. However, since window designs
vary, it may be necessary to make some modifications for safe, proper installation.
2. Make sure window and frame are structurally sound and free from dry and rotted wood.
3. For maximum efficiency, install the air conditioner on a side of the house or building which favours more shade than
sunlight. If the unit is in direct sunlight, it is advisable to provide an awning over the unit.
4. Provide sufficient clearance around the cabinet to allow for ample air circulation through the unit (See Fig. 2). The
rear of the unit should be outdoors. It should not be in a garage, or inside a building. Keep unit as far away as possi-
ble from obstacles/obstructions and at least 30” above the floor or ground. Curtains and other objects within the room
should be prevented from blocking the air flow.
5. Be certain that the proper electrical outlet is within reach of the installation. Use only a single outlet circuit rated at 15
amps. All wiring should be in accordance with local and national electrical codes.
6. DO NOT install unit where leakage of combustible gas is suspected. Your air conditioner may fail to operate in air
containing oils (including machine oils), sulfide gas, near hot springs, etc.
NOTE: Your unit is designed to evaporate condensation under normal conditions. However, under extreme humidity con-
ditions, excess condensation may cause basepan to overflow to the outside. The unit should be installed where conden-
sation run-off cannot drip on pedestrians or neighbouring properties.
NOTE: It is normal for your unit to drip a small amount of water, especially on excessively humid days.

1. Assembly of the upper channel to the cabinet (factory installed on some units).
• “L” Shaped Top Channel: install the “L” shaped channel to the top of the cabinet as shown in Fig. 3, using four (4) 3/8”
screws.
2. Assembly of the side curtains to the cabinet.
• Extend the shutter from the shutter frame and slide it into the shutter tabs on the side channel of the air conditioner,
as shown in Fig. 4.
• Slide the shutters into the top (“L” shaped) and bottom (“U” shaped) channels. The shutters are identified (on frame)
as left and right.

3. Completing the installation.
• Carefully place the air conditioner into the window with the “L” shaped mounting bracket (on top) positioned in front
of the upper window sash. The bottom of the cabinet should be positioned on the “recessed” portion of the window
frame. Pull the window down until it rests just behind the front flange of the (top) “L” shaped mounting bracket (See
Fig. 5).
• Expand the shutter frames (fully) on each side and secure the top of the frames to the window sash using one 1/2”
screw on each side and one in the “L” shaped mounting bracket (Fig. 5).
• Secure the shutter clamp on each side of the lower part of the shutter, and secure to window sill using one 1/2” screw
on each side (Fig. 5).
• Place the second foam sealing strip to fit the opening between the inside and outside windows, then attach the safety
lock to the outside window frame using one 1/2” screw (See Fig. 6).
PLEASE NOTE: Window applications come in a variety of different styles. Therefore, it may be necessary to modify your
particular installation.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Turn the selector switch slowly, allowing the unit to adjust.
When using THERMOSTAT, be sure to allow three minutes
before changing the temperature. Adjusting too quickly may
cause compressor to overload.
IMPORTANT

Check that the air conditioner is tilted downwards to the outside, about
3° to 4°, as shown in Fig. 7. After proper installation, condensed water
should not drain from the overflow drain hole during normal use. If you
notice water leaking out, check the angle of tilt, and make any neces-
sary adjustments. However, on a very humid day, water leakage can
occur – this is normal.
Measure the tilt angle from the cabinet’s edge. The distance H should
be approximately 3/4” to 1”.
Measure the tilt angle from the cabinet’s edge

FAN SPEEDS:
• LOW FAN will circulate air at minimum speed without cooling.
• MED FAN will circulate air at a medium speed without cooling.
• HIGH FAN will circulate air at maximum speed without cooling.
SELECTOR SWITCH: The selector switch controls cooling mode. Simply rotate the SELECTOR knob to one of the two
settings described below.
COOLING MODES:
• LOW COOL provides cooling with minimum air circulation. Recommended for night-time use.
• MED COOL provides cooling with medium air circulation.
• HIGH COOL provides cooling with maximum air circulation.
Recommended for quick cooling or for extremely hot days. Once room is
cooled, reduce setting to LOW COOL.
• OFF shuts the unit down completely.
NOTE: Always allow 3 minutes before switching from one mode to another.
THERMOSTAT: The thermostat automatically controls the (compressor)
cooling cycle and maintains the selected room temperature. To set the
thermostat, rotate the thermostat knob to the desired cooling setting
(1 warmest - 7 coldest).
