Positioning
This unit can easily be moved from one room to another. In doing so keep this in mind:
•The air conditioner must stand upright on an even surface.
•Do not position near bath, sink, or other permanent, wet or damp area.
•Keep unit at least 18" from wall, curtains, draperies, or heat sources to insure adequate air circulation.
Assembling the Outer Adaptor
Align the two halves of the Outer Adaptor and gently snap together (Figure A).
Note: To prevent damage, do not use excessive pressure.

Installing Exhaust Hose to Window Slide Bar
Note: The window kit is only designed to be installed with sliding windows or doors. The window kit is not designed or to be used with casement style windows.
Step 1:
Measure your window kit according to the dimensions of your sliding window. If the unit is larger than your required dimensions, it can be cut using a saw or power tool of the sort. If the unit is too short for your opening, you can order an additional window kit from our online store to extend it.
Step 2:
Screw the slide bar connector into exhaust hose first, then spin the exhaust hose into the air outlet located at the rear of the unit (counter-clockwise) (Figure B).
Step 3:
Insert slide bar connector into adjustable slide bar. Extend the Slide Bar length to match the width of the window (vertically or horizontally), and then tighten the screw to hold the length of the slide bar (Figure D).
Make sure the adjustable slide bar fits snug in your window and stays in place. Proceed to close and lock your window on the Slide Bar to secure in place (Figure C).
IMPORTANT
The flexible hose can be extended from 10.63" to 59" for mounting
We recommend that you keep the hose as short as possible to minimize possible loss back in the room. This length has been designed especially according to the specifications of the air conditioner.
Do not use an extension or exchange for a different hose as that may lead to malfunctioning.
The exhaust air must flow freely. Any blockage can lead to overheating of the air conditioner. Handle with care to prevent any kink or bend in the exhaust hose.
