REAR LOUVER PANEL

A TWKG rear louver panel kit is required for unit installation into an existing Amana® brand 26” wall sleeve. A TWEAK or TWF AK adapter kit is required for unit installation into an existing 27” wall sleeve. The rear louver panel directs air flow for proper unit operation and protects the outdoor coil. The panel must be installed before installing the chassis. These kits are not supplied with the unit. Refer to the Installation Instructions supplied with the rear louver panel kit for a complete description of the installation procedure.

Pull the grille out from the bottom and lift up from the tabs on the top of the case.

2. Remove the grounding screw and wire next to the grounding symbol on right side of chassis control panel (Figure 3). Attach other end of ground wire to the hole in the bottom right side of the sleeve with #8 x 3/8” blunt point sheet metal screw . The hole on the sleeve is indicated by grounding symbol on the sleeve. Slide chassis part of the way into the sleeve and reattach the ground wire back to the hole on the right side on the control panel area next to the grounding symbol.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

1. The unit is equipped with a rubber-grommet-mounted compressor. These grommets are factory set and require no adjustment.

2. Obstruction to air flow must be checked and removed. Check the indoor and outdoor grilles for obstructions. The unit must be located where curtains, furniture, trees, or other objects do not block air flow to and from the unit. If air is obstructed and/or deflected back into the unit, the air conditioner’s compressor may cycle on and off rapidly. This could cause damage to the compressor.
