SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Preparation for Operation
1. Contact an installation specialist for installation.
2. Plug inthe power cordproperly.
3. Use a dedicated circuit. Overloadingthe line couldcreate a firehazard.
4. Do notuse an extension cord.
5. Do notstart/stop operation byplugging/unplugging the power cord.
6. If thecord/plug is damaged, have an authorized Servicer install an exact replacement part.
Usage
1. Being exposedto direct airflow for an extended period of time could be hazardous to your
health. Do notexpose occupants, pets,or plants todirect airflow for extended periods of time.
2. Due to the possibility of oxygen deficiency, ventilate theroom when usedtogether with
stoves or otherheating devices.
3. Do notuse this airconditioner for non-specified special purposes (e.g. Preserving precision
devices, food, pets,plants, and artobjects). Such usagecould damage the items.
4. The air conditioner isa consumer comfort appliance, not aprecision climate controlsystem.
Cleaning and Maintance
1. Do nottouch the metalparts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can occur when
handling sharp metal edges.
2. Do notuse water to clean inside theair conditioner.Exposure to water can destroy the
insulation, leading to possible electric shock.
3. When cleaningthe unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned off. The fan
rotates at a very high speed during operation. There is a possibility of injury if the unit’s power
is accidentally triggeredon while cleaning inner parts of the unit.

BEFORE OPERATION

How and Why
Your room air conditioner provides the following functions to make hot weather living more
comfortable:
1.Cools and circulatesthe room air.
2.Lowers humidity byremoving excess moisture.
3.Filters out summertimedust, dirt, andsome airborne impurities.
The air conditionerperforms these functionsby drawing theroom air througha filter whichtraps
dust and dirtparticles. The air then passesover a coolingcoil which refrigeratesthe air and
removes excess moisture.The same air is thenreturned to theroom-cooler, drier, and cleaner.
Moisture removed fromthe room airis carried tothe outside andevaporated.
Normal Sounds
Aside from the regular fan motor and compressor sounds coming from your air conditioner, you will once
in a while hear a pinging sound. This is the result of moisture inside the room air being thrown against the
running fan. This is normal and should not be caused for concern. Also, do not be alarmed if you hear a
slight hissing or gurgling sound coming from your air conditioner after it is off. These are normal coolant
noises.
Your air conditioner is designed to be easy to operate and to provide plenty of cooling power.
Fan
You may hear air
movement from thefan. Condenser
You may hear droplets of water
hitting the condenser, causing
a pinging orclicking sound.
Compressor
The modern highefficiency compressor
may have ahigh pitched humor pulsating
noise that cycleson and off.
FIG.1
Capacitance and Running Time
Proper unit size is important in deciding the desired comfort for the area you want to cool. The proper
size is determined by the number of square feet in the area to be cooled.
Whenever the heat or humidity load is above normal, the air conditioner must run longer and more often
to keep the desired temperature you have selected. Under heavy heat load conditions, the air conditioner
may need to run constantly to keep the temperature you want.

INTRODUCTION
??

At times using the high fan setting to circulate the room air may make it comfortable even though you
do not set the air conditioner to cool the air. This will save your cost of use.

Using the Air Conditioner
1. Plug in the air conditioner. (To prevent electrical hazards, do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug.)
2. Turn on the power switch.
3. Select the cool mode.
4. Set the fan speed at the high level.
5. Adjust the air direction control tabs for comfortable airflow.
6. Once the room has cooled, adjust the set temperature and fan speed to the setting you find most
comfortable.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the section of important safety
instructions before operating the appliance.
To begin operating the air conditioner after installation, follow these steps:
Note:
If the air conditioner is turned off, a “compressor protection” is automatically self-activated. The
compressor cannot operate during a “compressor protection”condition. (This is normal) it may take 3
minutes before the “protection circuit” self-deactivates.

This air conditioner will be installed into standard double hung windows with actual clear opening widths
of 23 to 37 (about 920mm to 580mm).(FIG.4).
Lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 13 (about 325mm). Side louvers
and the rear of the air conditioner must have clear air space to allow enough airflow through the
condenser for heat removal. The rear of the unit must be outdoors, not inside a building or garage.

REMOVAL FROM WINDOW
Turn off the air conditioner and disconnect the power cord. Remove the 5 screws installed through the
window and the air conditioner, and save for reinstallation later. Close the guide panels. Keeping a firm
grip on the air conditioner, raise the sash, and carefully tilt the air conditioner away from you to drain any
condensate water. Remove the air conditioner from the window .
CAUTION
When handling the air conditioner, be careful to avoid cuts from sharp metal fins on front and rear coils.
Make sure air conditioner does not fall during removal.
Air conditioners covered in this manual pose an excessive weight hazard. Two or more people are needed
to move and install the unit.
To prevent injury or stain, use proper lifting and carrying techniques when moving unit.
Note: Please note that there is a screw on the left and right side of the air conditioner covered by the curtain
fastening strips. Before disassembling the unit please first take out the curtain fastening strips then loose
the screw on each side, as shown in FIG.13.
CURTAIN FASTENING STRIP

Install a second wood strip(approximately 6 long by 1.5 wide and same thickness as first strip) in the
center of the outer sill flush against the back of the inner sill, as shown in FIG.12.
IF AIR CONDITIONER IS BLOCKED BY STORM WINDOW FRAME
If storm window presents interference, fasten a 2 wide wood strip to the inner window sill across the
full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raise the height of the window sill so that
the unit can be installed without interference from the storm window frame. See FIG.12.
Proper clearance enhances the cooling efficiency of the unit and prevents heat radiation of the condenser.
The top of the wood strip should be approximately 0.75 higher than the storm window frame or wood
strip to help condensation to drain properly to the outside.
If the distance between storm window frame and wood strip mounted on top of inner sill is more than 1
two of wood strips are not necessary.

TURN THEAIR CONDITIONER OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROMTHE POWER OUTLET.
Air Filter Cleaning
The air filtershould be checkedat least twicea month tosee if cleaningis necessary. Trapped
particles in thefilter will buildup and block the airflow. This reduces the cooling capacity and
also causes anaccumulation of froston the cooling evaporator. Toclean the airfilter:
Clean the front grille and inlet grille by wiping with a cloth dampened in mild detergent solution, as
shown in FIG.15.The cabinet may be washed with mild soap or detergent and lukewarm water, then polish
with liquid appliance wax.
Air Conditioner Cleaning
To ensure continued peak efficiency, the condenser coils(outdoor side of the unit) should be checked
periodically and cleaned if they become clogged with soot or dirt. Brush or vacuum exterior coils to
remove debris from fins.
How to Remove the Front Grille
1. Put your hands on the handle on the right hand side of the front grille then pull the air filter out, as
shown in FIG.14.
2. Wash the air filter under the faucet with warm water. Be sure to shake off all the water before replacing
the filter.
1. Remove the two screws securing the front grille.
2. Pull the grille up from the bottom and pull the top of the grille away from the case to lift the top tabs out
of their slots, as shown in FIG.16.
