Before installation
Install Location
1. Use in special places such as factories, coasts and hot springs may cause
malfunctions.
2. Do not install it where flammable gases leak, such as propane / acetylene.
3. Install it near the entrance and exit where there is no obstruction to airflow and the
entire room can be cooled.
4. Keep electronic devices such as televisions and radios away from air conditioners
by at least 1m.
Noise
1. During installation, choose a place that can withstand the weight of the air
conditioner without increasing noise and vibration.
2. Be sure that the hot/cold air and noise won't disturb your neighbours.
3. Do not place anything near the air outlet, which will reduce performance and
increase noise.
4. If you hear abnormal sounds while using the air conditioner, consult your dealer.
Electrical safety
Qualifications must be made for electrical and groundwork. For more information, consult

Power safety
•Avoid using an extension cord or connect the power cord to other electrical equipment
which may cause danger.
•Even if there are 2 power sockets, use them separately and check if the outlet is 220V
16A or higher
•The electrical capacity of the indoor wiring exceeds the allowable capacity, which may
cause fire, electric shock or overheating of the power plug.

Complete Diagram
Choose installation location
1. There is no obstruction in front of the cold air outlet and the cold air spreads
throughout the room.
2. Ensure there is no hot air beside unit.
3. Windows are strong and difficult to spread vibration.
4. Avoid placing the device directly under the rain gutter.
5. Hot air from the back does not blow into windows of adjacent houses and is
difficult to spread noise.
6. Where flammable gases are not present.
Notes:
1. The size of the installation window should not exceed the size that can be
installed on the window frame;
2. For the connection between the extension bracket and the standard bracket, see
the extension bracket installation instructions.

Consider noise during installation
1. When installing, choose a location that can withstand the weight of the air
conditioner without increasing operating noise or vibration.
2. Choose a location so that hot air and driving noise from the outdoor air outlet of
the air conditioner do not disturb the neighbours
3. If an object is placed near the outdoor air outlet of the air-cooled air conditioner,
the function will be weakened and the noise will increase.
4. If you hear abnormal sound during use, consult your dealer.

1. When the standard mounting frame is placed on the window, the bracket
retaining plate of the mounting frame is installed in the first groove of the window
(see the installation window location diagram).
2. To increase the height of the mounting frame, stretch the inner frame ® upward to
ensure that the bracket retaining plate above the mounting bracket is installed in
the first groove above the window.
3. Push the standard mounting bracket to the side of the window to the edge of the
side.
4. On the inner side of the mounting frame, there are two sliding fixing screws on
each side. After confirming the extension height of the mounting bracket, use a
Phillips screwdriver to fasten the four sliding fixing screws. After the fixing is firm,
put the protective plate ⑫into the gap between the top and bottom of the
window frame and the standard mounting frame (see the installation window
location diagram) and then tighten the upper and lower bracket fixing screws to
ensure that the standard mounting frame is firmly fixed to the window.
5. After the mounting bracket is installed, move the open window to the sealing skin
of the mounting bracket, make the edge of the window fit the sealing skin and cut
the sealing sponge of suitable length with the height of the window to seal the
gap.
Note:
Standard installation frame. When installing, it is necessary to cover the entire window
frame.
