ASSEMBLY REQUIREMENTS
1) Exhaust Duct
When you use the unit as an air conditioner, the hot exhaust air must be directed out of the
room. The exhaust duct is required to allow the hot air out of the room through a window.
DO NOT INSTALL OR USE THE EXHAUST DUCT WHEN THE UNIT IS
OPERATED AS A DEHUMIDIFIER OR FAN.
Slide “Unit Terminal End” of the exhaust
connector completely over the “Hot Air Outlet
Grill” on the rear of the unit. Plastic grooves
are located on the hot air outlet help to guide
the exhaust connector into place.
Window Kit Mounting: Connect the window
kit adapter to the external end of the exhaust
duct. The exhaust duct is now ready to be
attached to the window kit. See page 7 for
window kit installation
Wall Mounting: Mount the external end of the
exhaust duct to a 5¼” hole within the wall.
Creating a hole into a wall is a separate
procedure that may require professional
installation.

NOTE: In order to achieve maximum room cooling efficiency, the exhaust duct should
remain as short and straight as possible. To further shorten the exhaust hose, first unthread
either exhaust duct adapter clockwise to remove it. Then cut the hose to desired length. It
is not recommended to increase the manufacturer’s length of the exhaust hose. This may
reduce the cooling efficiency or damage the unit.

2) Window Kit Installation
a. Open window approximately
5 inches (13 cm)
b. Adjust the length of the window kit
to the same length of the window; use both
panels if necessary. The window kit
has a maximum length 50.5 inches.
c. Place the window kit between the window
and the window frame as shown in the
picture to the right. Close the window onto
the window kit to form a tight seal.
d. Attach the exhaust duct window kit adapter
to the window kit. Tabs located on the
adapter will lock into place securing the
adapter to the window kit.
NOTE: Using the window kit will cause the window not to be properly closed and locked.
Additional security measurements should be taken.
