ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Your appliance is designed to be highly effi cient in energy savings. Follow these recommendations for greater effi -
ciency.
1. Select a thermostat setting that suits your comfort needs and leave at that chosen setting.
2. The air fi lter is very effi cient in removing airborne particles. Keep the air fi lter clean at all times (usually cleaned every
2 weeks depending on indoor air quality).
3. Use drapes, curtains or shades to keep direct sunlight from penetrating and heating the room, but do not allow drapes
or curtains to obstruct the air fl ow around the unit.
4. Start your air conditioner before the outdoor air becomes hot, to avoid an initial period of discomfort while the unit is
cooling the room.
5. When outdoor temperatures are cool enough, use the FAN MODE only, on HIGH, MED., or LOW setting. This
circulates indoor air, providing some cooling comfort, and utilizes less electricity than operating on a cooling setting.

before installing or servicing.
TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION:
• Screwdrivers: Phillips and fl at head.
• Power Drill: 1/8in. (3.2mm) diameter drill bit
• Pencil
• Measuring Tape
• Scissors
• Carpenter’s Level
NOTE: Save the shipping carton and packing materials for future storage or transportation. From
the carton, remove the plastic bag containing the installation hardware kit necessary for the installation of your air conditioner. Please check the contents of the hardware kit against the corresponding model check list, prior to installation of the unit. See Fig. 1.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
LOCATION
1. This room air conditioner is designed to fi t easily into a single or double hung window. However, since window designs
vary, it may be necessary to make some modifi cations for safe, proper installation.
2. Make sure window and frame are structurally sound and free from dry and rotted wood.
3. For maximum effi ciency, install the air conditioner on a side of the house or building which favours more shade than
sunlight. If the unit is in direct sunlight, it is advisable to provide an awning over the unit.
4. Provide suffi cient clearance around the cabinet to allow for ample air circulation through the unit (See Fig. 2). The
rear of the unit should be outdoors. It should not be in a garage, or inside a building. Keep unit as far away as possible from obstacles/obstructions and at least 30 in. (76 cm) above the fl oor or ground. Curtains and other objects within
the room should be prevented from blocking the air fl ow.
5. Be certain that the proper electrical outlet is within reach of the installation. Use only a single outlet circuit rated at 15
amps. All wiring should be in accordance with local and national electrical codes.
6. DO NOT install unit where leakage of combustible gas is suspected. Your air conditioner may fail to operate in air
containing oils (including machine oils), sulfi de gas, near hot springs, etc.
NOTE: Your unit is designed to evaporate condensation under normal conditions. However, under extreme humidity conditions, excess condensation may cause basepan to overfl ow to the outside. The unit should be installed where conden-
sation run-off cannot drip on pedestrians or neighbouring properties.
NOTE: It is normal for your unit to drip a small amount of water, especially on excessively humid days.

ASSEMBLY AND INST ALLATION
1. Assembly of the upper channel to the cabinet (factory installed on some units).
• “L” Shaped Top Channel: install the “L” shaped channel to the top of the cabinet as shown in Fig. 3, using four (4)
3/8 in. (9.5 mm) screws.
2. Assembly of the side curtains to the cabinet.
• Extend the shutter from the shutter frame and slide it into the shutter tabs on the side channel of the air conditioner,
as shown in Fig. 4.
• Slide the shutters into the top (“L” shaped) and bottom (“U” shaped) channels. The shutters are identifi ed (on frame)

3. Completing the installation.
• Cut the foam (non adhesive) sealing strip to fi t the area of the window sill that the air conditioner will rest on.
• Carefully place the air conditioner into the window with the “L” shaped mounting bracket (on top) positioned in front
of the upper window sash. The bottom of the cabinet should be positioned on the “recessed” portion of the window
frame. Pull the window down until it rests just behind the front fl ange of the (top) “L” shaped mounting bracket (See
Fig. 5).
• Expand the shutter frames (fully) on each side and secure the top of the frames to the window sash using one 1/2 in.
(13 mm) screw on each side and one in the “L” shaped mounting bracket (Fig. 5).
• Secure the shutter clamp on each side of the lower part of the shutter, and secure to window sill using one 1/2 in.
(13 mm) screw on each side (Fig. 5).
• Place the second foam sealing strip to fi t the opening between the inside and outside windows, then attach the safety
lock to the outside window frame using one 1/2 in. (13 mm) screw (See Fig. 6).
PLEASE NOTE: Window applications come in a variety of different styles. Therefore, it may be necessary to modify your
particular installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ASSEMBLY AND INSTALLATION (cont’d)
Check that the air conditioner is tilted downwards to the outside, about 3° to 4°, as shown in Fig. 7. After proper installation, condensed water should not drain from the overfl ow drain hole during normal use. If you notice water leaking out,
check the angle of tilt, and make any necessary adjustments. However, on a very humid day, water leakage can occur –
this is normal.
Note: To achieve 3° to 4°, you must measure the H, see fi gure 7.
Measure the tilt angle from the cabinet’s edge. The distance H should be approximately 3/4 in. to 1 in. (19 mm - 2.5 cm)
for DAC080ECB2GDB and DAC080BUB2GDB. The distance H should be approximately 1 in. to 1 3/8 in. (2.5 cm - 3.5
cm) for DAC100ECB2GDB, DAC100EUB2GDB

the temperature scale displayed on the electronic display, press both the “Temp/Timer” adjust arrows simultaneously to alternate between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
CHECK FILTER: The adjacent indicator light will illuminate as a reminder to clean the air conditioner fi lter
(see page 11). Once the fi lter has been cleaned and replaced, depress the Check Filter button in order to
resume operation.
SLEEP MODE: In this mode, the selected temperature will increase (when in cooling mode) by 1°C/2°F
one half-hour after Sleep mode has been selected. The temperature will then increase by another 1°C/2°F
after an additional half hour. This new temperature will be maintained for 6 hours before returning to the
originally selected temperature. This ends the Sleep mode and the unit will continue to operate as originally
programmed. The Sleep mode program can be cancelled at any time during operation by pressing the Sleep
button again.
AUTO-TIMER: Used to initiate the Auto On/ Auto Off timer.
When the air conditioner is off (Auto-On feature):
