INSTALLATION OF THE AIR EXHAUST HOSE
1. Remove the hot-air outlet and remove the ex-
haust hose.
2. Fasten the air exhaust adapter to the exhaust
hose by twisting in a counter-clockwise direction.
3. Fasten the air exhaust hose directly to the
unit in a counter-clockwise direction.
WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
The included window kit is designed for installation in most vertical or horizontal sash
windows. You may be required to slightly modify your specific installation to ensure safe
and proper use of your air conditioner unit.
Horizontal window:
Minimum width: 27.5” (70cm)
Maximum width: 48” (122cm)
Vertical window:
Minimum height: 27.5” (70cm)
Maximum height: 48” (122cm)
STEP 1: ADAPT WINDOW BOARD SIZE
Insert the window exhaust port fitting into your window and extend the width or height to
fill your window entirely. Fasten the screw into section number 2 as shown below to keep
the extended portion from collapsing.
STEP 2: CONNECT AIR EXHAUST ADAPTER
Insert the air exhaust adapter into the window kit. Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface
at least 20” away from any walls or other obstacles. Your unit is ready to begin operation.
WALL AIR EXHAUST PORT MOUNTING
If you have an existing air exhaust port you can directly connect your portable air condi-
tioning unit to the port. For the best energy eiciency and to preserve the longest life of
your unit, avoid bending the hose and keep the exhaust hose length as short as possible.

ENGLISH ESPAÑOL FRANÇAIS
–8–
The hose bending point should be at least 24” away from the unit for optimal perfor-
mance. Avoid any kinks or sharp bends.
REVERSING INTAKE/OUTPUT
You can reverse the inlet and exhaust port on your portable unit to send cold air via the
exhaust outlet. This type of installation may be practical when installing the portable unit
in a garage and blowing cold air inside the house via a duct.
Simply swap the air outflow grille and the exhaust air mount as illustrated below.
Keep in mind that cooling is not recommended when the ambient temperature fallow
below 65°F (18°C) or above 95°F (35°C).
REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS
To remove your air conditioning unit, follow these instructions:
• Turn the unit o and unplug the power cord.
• Remove the window curtain lock and the air exhaust adapter by twisting on the
hose in a clockwise rotation.
• Re-insert the hose into the storage area contained beneath the air exhaust cover.
• Store the unit in a flat, dry, level place and include all installation parts and this
manual with the unit.
WATER DRAINING INSTRUCTIONS
All air conditioner units produce water via condensation and discharges the moisture
through the hot-air exhaust. Under heavy loads, the exhaust discharge is insuicient and
the unit stores water in an internal collection tank.
When the FULL indicator light illuminates on your unit, the cooling will stop immediately.
Follow these steps to place your air conditioner unit back in service:
1. Unplug the air conditioner, disconnect the exhaust hose and transport the unit to
a drain location or outdoors on a level surface such as your driveway.
2. Remove the stopper from the base of the unit and let the water drain. Do not ex-
cessively tip or drop the unit.
3. Once the internal collection tank is emptied, re-insert the tank stopper.
