How to Secure the Drain Pipe
In humid weather, excess water may cause the BASE PAN to overflow. To drain the water, remove the
DRAIN CAP and secure the DRAIN PIPE to the rear hole of the BASE PAN. Press the drain pipe into the
hole by pushing down and away from the fins to avoid injury. (See Fig.1)
Optional (CW3H02502B)
1. Remove the rubber plug and slide the chassis out
from the cabinet. (See Fig. 2)
2. Install the drain pan over the corner of the cabinet
where you removed the plug with 4 (or 2) screws.
(See Fig.3)
3. Connect the drain hose to the outlet located at the
bottom of the drain pan. You can purchase the drain
hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular
needs. (Drain hose is not supplied). (See Fig.3)
4. Select the most appropriate connection from among
the figures to the right (by considering the hole of the
unit) to fit drain pan to your own unit. (See Fig.3)
5. Slide the chassis back into the cabinet. Reinstall the
cabinet screws. Secure the cabinet to chassis by
using screws. (See Fig.4)

The ventilation lever must be in the CLOSE position in order to maintain the
best cooling conditions.
When fresh air is necessary in the room, set the ventilation lever to the OPEN
position.
The damper is opened and room air is drawn out.
NOTE: Before using the ventilation feature, and prior to installing the front
grille, pull down part until level with part .
Air Direction
The direction of air can be controlled wherever you want to cool by adjusting the horizontal
louver and the vertical louver.
The vertical air direction is adjusted
by rotating the horizontal louver
forward or backward manually.
The horizontal air direction is adjusted by
rotating the vertical louver right or left manually
or by Remote Controller.

Care and Maintenance
Air Filter Cleaning
The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned at least once every 2
weeks or more often if necessary.
TO REMOVE:
1. Open the inlet grille upward by pulling out the bottom of the inlet grille or downward by
pulling out the top of the inlet grille.
2. Using the tab, pull up slightly on the filter to release it and pull it down or up.
3. Clean the filter with warm, soapy water under 40°C (104°F).
4. Rinse and gently shake the water from the filter and let it dry before replacing it.
CAUTION: DO NOT operate the air conditioner without a filter because dirt and lint will
clog it and reduce performance.
TURN THE AIR CONDITIONER OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE POWER OUTLET.
1. Remove the cover from the back of the remote
controller.
2. Insert two AAA dry cell batteries.
•Be sure that the (+) and (-) directions are correct.
•Be sure that both batteries are new.
3. Re-attach the cover.
•Do not use
rechargeable batteries.
Such batteries
differ from standard dry
cells in shape,
dimensions, and
performance.
•Remove the batteries
from the remote
controller if the air
conditioner is not going
to be used for an
extended length of time.

Heat
radiation
1. To prevent vibration and noise, make sure
the unit is installed securely and firmly
2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not
shine directly on the unit.
3. The outside of the cabinet must extend
outward for at least 12" (30.5cm) and there
should be no obstacles, such as a fence or
wall, within 20" (50.8cm) from the back of
the cabinet because it will prevent heat
radiation of the condenser.
Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce
the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
CAUTION: All side louvers of the cabinet must remain exposed to the outside of the
structure.
4. Install the unit a little slanted so the back is slightly lower than the front
(about 1/2"(12.7mm)).
This will force condensed water to flow to the outside.
5. Install the unit with the bottom about 30"~60"(76.2~152.4cm) above the floor level.
Window Requirements
NOTE: All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood, masonry, or metal.
This unit is designed for installation in standard
double hung windows with actual opening widths
from 27" to 39" (68.6~99.1cm).
The top and bottom window sash must open
sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of
16" (40.6cm) from the bottom of the upper sash
to the window stool.

Electrical Safety (Applies to USA and Puerto Rico)
IMPORTANT
(PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)
FOR THE USER'S PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS
APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug. Use this with a
standard three-slot (grounding) wall power outlet
(Fig. 12) to minimize the hazard of electric shock.
The customer should have the wall receptacle and
circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the receptacle is properly grounded.
DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD
(GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER PLUG.
A. SITUATIONS WHERE THE APPLIANCE
WILL BE DISCONNECTED ONLY
OCCASIONALLY:
Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly
discourage the use of an adapter plug. However, if
you wish to use an adapter, a TEMPORARY
CONNECTION may be made. Use UL-listed
adapter, available from most local hardware stores
(Fig. 13). The large slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the large slot in the receptacle to
assure a proper polarity connection.
CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to
the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not
insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring.
The customer should have the circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the
receptacle is properly grounded.
Disconnect the power cord from the adapter, using
one hand on each. Otherwise, the adapter ground
terminal might break. DO NOT USE the appliance
with a broken adapter plug.
B. SITUATIONS WHERE THE APPLIANCE
WILL BE DISCONNECTED OFTEN.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations.
Unplugging the power cord frequently can lead to
an eventual breakage of the ground terminal. The
wall power outlet should be replaced by a three-slot
(grounding) outlet instead.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly
discourage the use of an extension cord. However,
if you wish to use an extension cord, use a CSA
certified/UL-listed 3-wire (grounding) extension
cord, rated 15A, 125V.

Troubleshooting Tips Save time and money!
Review the chart below first and you may not need to call for service.
Normal Operation
•You may hear a pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser
on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve
efficiency.
•You may hear the relay click when the compressor cycles on and off.
•Water will collect in the base pan during high humidity or on rainy days. The water may overflow
and drip from the outdoor side of the unit.
•The fan may run even when the compressor does not.
Abnormal Operation
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
■ The air conditioner is
unplugged.
■ The fuse is blown/circuit
breaker is tripped.
■ Power failure.
■ Airflow is restricted.
■ TEMP Control set to a
higher number.
■ The air filter is dirty.
■ The room may have been
hot.
■ Cold air is escaping.
■ Cooling coils have iced up.
■ Ice blocks the air flow and
stops the air conditioner
from cooling the room.
•Make sure the air conditioner plug is pushed
completely into the outlet.
•Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and
replace the fuse or reset the breaker.
•When power is restored, wait 3 minutes to restart the
air conditioner to prevent tripping of the compressor
overload.
•Make sure there are no curtains, blinds, or furniture
blocking the front of the air conditioner.
•Set the TEMP Control to a lower number.
•Clean the filter at least every 2 weeks.
See the operating instructions section.
•When the air conditioner is first turned on
you need to allow time for the room to cool down.
•Check for open furnace floor registers
and cold air returns.
•Set the air conditioner's vent to the closed position.
•See Air Conditioner Freezing Up below.
•Set the mode control at High Fan or High Cool with
the high temperature.
