Introduction
Before Operating Your Unit
Make sure the wiring is adequate for your unit.
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.
The cord provided wincarry the proper amount of electrical power to the unit; an extension cord will not.
Make sure that the receptacle is compatible with the wall plug provided.
This insuresproper grounding. If you have a two-prong receptacle you will need to have the circuit replaced
by a certified electrician with a grounded circuit that meets all national and local codes and ordinances. You
must use the three-prong plug furnished with the air conditioner.

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.
Instructions for removing and cleaning the filter can be found on page 6.
Provide good airflow
Make sure that the airflow into and out ofthe unit is unobstructed. (both indoors and outdoors)
Maximum airflow is critical for peak performance. Your air conditioner blows air out of the top of the unit
and takes in air at the bottom of the unit.
Unit Placement
If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or a wall that 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 sure to caulk around doors and windows.

Installation Instructions
Window Requirements
NOTE:All supporting parts should be firmly secured to wood, or metal.
1.This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung windows with actual opening widths of
22"to 36". The upperand lowersash must open sufficiently to allow a clear verticalopening of 14"
from the bottom of the sash to the window sill.
2.If stormwindow presents interference, fasten a 2" wide wood strip (OUTER SILL)to the inner
window sill acrossthe full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raisethe height
of the window sill so that the unitcan be installed without interference by the storm window frame.
See Fig. 5-2. Top of wood strip should be approximately 3/4" higherthan the stormwindow frame
(STORM WINDOW FRAME)or wood strip (OUTDOORS) to help condensation to drain properly to
the outside.
3. Install a 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 raise the L bracket as
shown Fig. 5-2.
4. If the distance between STORM WINDOW FRAME and WOOD STRIP MOUNTED ON TOP OF
INNER SILL is morethan 1",two of wood strip are not necessary.
