SAFETY
POWER CORD AND PLUG
Before installing and using air conditioner, read
instructions carefully. Store instructions in a safe place
for future reference. Pay attention to all safety warnings
outlined in instructions.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, electrical
shock or injury when using air conditioner,
follow these safety precautions:
• Plug into a grounded, three-prong outlet.
• Do not remove the ground prong.
• Do not use a plug adapter.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Unplug the air conditioner before servicing.
• Use two or more people to move and install the air
conditioner.
The air conditioner is equipped with an LCDI (Leakage
Current Detection and Interruption) power cord and
plug, as required by US National Electric Code 440.65.
This cord consists of a length of shielded flexible cord
with no termination on the load side and an LCDI
attachment plug on the line side.
The LCDI power cord and plug will remove the supply
source via electrical disconnect (circuit trip) if the
nominal current leakage between the cord shield and
either load conductor exceeds a predetermined value.
The cord will remain de-energized until the air
conditioner has been manually reset. This is intended to
reduce the risk of fire in the power cord or nearby
combustibles. The cord shields are not grounded and
are a shock hazard if exposed. The cord shield must not
be connected to ground or to any exposed metal.
To check the TEST and RESET buttons to ensure the plug
is functioning properly, perform the following:
1. Plug power cord into outlet. LED light will turn on.
(See Figure 1)
2. Press TEST button. Circuit should cut power to air
conditioner. LED light will turn off. (See Figure 1)
3. Press RESET button to restore power. Once power is
restored LED light will turn on. (See Figure 1)
If TEST button is pressed and air conditioner can be
turned on, current leakage has been detected. Do not
use air conditioner or attempt to reset the LCDI plug.
Contact Uline Customer Service at 1-800-295-5510.
NOTE: The power cord and plug included may
differ from the one shown in Figure 1.
WARNING! Do not press the TEST button while
the air conditioner is operating.
WARNING! The TEST and RESET buttons should
not be used as on and off switches.
WARNING! The cord and plug are not intended
to offer protection to externally connected
loads or supply circuits.
WARNING! The cord and plug are intended for
indoor use only.

WINDOW PREPARATION
Read all instructions prior to installing air conditioner.
Two-person installation is recommended. If a new
electrical outlet is required, have the outlet installed by a
qualified electrician before installing the air conditioner.
Before installing the air conditioner, check the
dimensions of window to ensure air conditioner will fit. Air
conditioner is designed to fit inside a standard double-
hung window. Ensure window is in good shape and able
to firmly hold the required screws. Make any necessary
repairs prior to installing the air conditioner.

INSTALLATION

PAGE 3 OF 27 0218 IH-7100
STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner
to tilt properly, which in turn will keep it from draining
properly. To adjust for this, attach a board or piece of
wood to sill. The board or wood piece should have a
depth of at least 1½". Make sure the board or piece of
wood is approximately 1/2" higher than storm window
frame. This will allow air conditioner to tilt enough for
proper drainage. (See Figures 2 and 3)
NOTE: All supporting parts must be secured to
firm wood, masonry or metal.
NOTE: Air conditioner can be installed without
curtains to fit in a narrow window.
NOTE: Electrical outlet must be within reach of
power cord.
PRIOR TO INSTALLING THE AIR CONDITIONER
1. Check for anything that could block airflow. Check
the area outside of the window for things such as
shrubs, trees or awnings. Check the inside area to
make sure curtains, drapes or blinds will not prevent
proper airflow.
2. Check the available electrical outlet. The power
supply must be the same as shown on the unit serial
nameplate (located on the left side of the unit). Be
sure outlet is close enough for power cord to reach.
CAUTION! When handling the unit, be careful
to avoid cuts from the sharp metal edges and
aluminum fins on the front and rear coils.
TOP RAIL INSTALLATION
NOTE: Top rail and the side panels are offset to
provide the proper pitch to the rear of 5/16". This
is necessary for proper condensation utilization
and drainage. If you are not using the side
panels, the rear pitch must still be maintained.
1. Attach the top rail onto the top of the outer case
using four short screws. (See Figure 4)
CURTAIN AND WEATHER
INSULATION BOARD INSTALLATION
NOTE: The weather insulation board adds an
extra layer of insulation to keep air from passing
through the sides of the window air conditioner.
1. Insert the side curtains into the upper and lower rails
of the air conditioner. Fasten the curtains to the unit
with four short screws. (See Figure 5)
2. Slide the free end of the curtain into the side panel
of the air conditioner. Do this for each side. The
flange for securing the curtain into the window sill
will be facing the room side when installed.

INSTALLATION CONTINUED
3. Using a sharp blade or scissors, slowly cut the
weather insulation board to a size that will fit the
inside curtain rails and completely cover the curtain.
4. Once properly sized, remove the backing to expose
the adhesive tape.
5. Place the weather insulation board over the left
curtain and firmly press and hold for five seconds.
(See Figure 6)
6. Repeat steps one through five to install on right
curtain.
PLACING THE UNIT INSIDE A NORMAL WINDOW
1. Set the unit in the window so that it is centered.
Place the unit so that front edge of the bottom rail is
against the back edge of the sill.
2. Bring the window down so that the front edge of the
top rail is in front of the window. Be sure the unit is
tilting slightly to the outside. (See Figure 7)
3. Once the air conditioner is placed, extend the left
and right curtains to the width of the window.
4. Place the curtain lock between the curtain
extensions and the window sill, drive two long screws
through the lock and into the sill. (See Figure 8)
5. Secure the left and right flanges on end bottom side
of the curtain with long screws. (See Figure 8)
6. Drive two long screws through two upper frame
holes into window sash. (See Figure 8)
7. Attach the sash lock to the place between the upper
and lower sashes and secure it with long screws. Each
side uses two long screws. (See Figure 8)
8. Cut the foam seal to the window width and insert
the sash seal between the glass and the window to
prevent air and insects from getting into the room.
(See Figure 8)
9. For added insulation, the insert strip can be inserted
between the air conditioner and window sill. This is
optional.
REMOVING AIR CONDITIONER FROM WINDOW
1. Turn power off and disconnect power cord.
2. Remove sash seal from between windows and
unscrew sash lock.
3. Remove screws installed through frame and frame
lock.
4. Close the side panels into frame.
5. Keeping a firm grip on air conditioner, raise sash
and tilt air conditioner backward to drain any
condensation in base of unit. Be careful not to spill
any remaining water while lifting air conditioner from
window.
6. Store air conditioner and parts in box.

hitting the condenser on rainy days or when the
humidity is high. This helps remove moisture and
improve efficiency.
• The thermostat may click when the compressor
cycles on and off.
• Water will collect in the base pan during rain or
days of high humidity. The water may overflow and
drip from the outside part of the unit.
