Remove the front panel. (See “Cleaning front
panel and filter” on page 5.)
Remove unit from window. Watch out for the
sharp metal fins on the front and rear coils.
Remove side curtains. Slide curtains out to
fullest width. From the back side, remove the
Phillips-head screws which attach the
curtains to the cabinet. (See A in illustration
at left.)
Remove slotted-hex head screws holding top
channel. (See B in illustration at left.)
Remove slotted-hex head screws on sides of
cabinet. (See C in illustration at left.)
Holding the cabinet on both sides, carefully
lift cabinet off unit base. Watch out for the
sharp metal fins on the front and rear
condenser coils.
Wrap the motor, electrical control box, and
compressor terminal box in plastic film to
make sure no water or other liquid gets
inside. Water or other liquids could damage
insulation and cause serious mechanical
problems.
Clean and hose out the base, coils, and
condensate pans. Clean at least once a year,
or more often if the condenser coils and pans
collect dirt, sand, leaves, insects, or algae.
Also, clean if you detect an odor coming from
the air conditioner. Do not use the collected

Plug in power cord.
NOTE: It is a good idea to wait 24 hours before
starting the unit again. This allows time for all
areas to dry thoroughly. The water from rainfall or
from normal operation does not harm these
components.

the hottest par-t of the day.
l Turn lights and appliances off when not
needed.
l Keep heat registers and cool-air returns closed.
l Use exhaust venting fans while cooking, doing

Normal operating sounds ...
When your room air conditioner is operating
normally, you will hear sounds such as:
l Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing
a “pinging” or “clicking” sound. Water droplets
help to cool the condenser.
l Air movement from the fan, especially on high
fan speed setting.
l Clicks from the cooling cycle.
Sounds also may be caused by house construc-
tion - such as vibration of the unit due to wall
construction or unsteady window mounting area.
