Power Cord with
Arc Detection Device
The power cord supplied with this air conditioner is equipped with an Arc Detection
Device designed to shut off power to the unit
when it senses an arc fault condition. An arc
fault is an unintentional electrical discharge
that occurs when electrical products or wires
are damaged, aged, or improperly used. An
arc fault can be potentially hazardous if left
undetected.
Electrical Shock Hazard
• Plug unit only into a grounded
electrical outlet.
• Do not use an extension cord or plug adapter
with this unit.
• Do not operate unit with decorative front or fil-
ter removed.
• Failure to follow these precautions could
result in electrical shock, fire or personal
injury.
• If the air conditioner has a serial plate rating
of 115 volts and greater than 7.5 amps, it
must have its own fuse or circuit breaker, and
no other device or unit should be operated on
that fuse or circuit breaker.
• If the air conditioner has a serial plate rating
of 230 volts, it must have its own fuse or circuit breaker, and no other device or unit
should be operated on that fuse or circuit
breaker.
• We recommend that a qualified electrician
install unit in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
• Use copper conductors of correct wire gauge
and protector size only.
• Do not alter cord or plug end. Do not remove
warning label on cord.
Important Grounding Requirements
• Air conditioner has a three-prong grounding
plug on the power supply cord, which must be
plugged into a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle for your protection against possible shock hazard. For models up to and
including 7.5 amperes, use a grounding type
wall receptacle to match the cord plug.
• For models above 7.5 amperes use a single
outlet grounding type wall receptacle to match
the cord plug.
Additional Safety Precautions
• Do not cut, alter or remove any of the
expanded polystyrene (styrofoam) inside
this air conditioner.
• Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The
fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.
• Do not introduce objects in the air dis-
charge area. This could cause permanent
damage.
• Do not pour liquids on the air conditioner
as this could cause a malfunction. With
the unit unplugged, use a damp cloth for
cleaning the unit.
• Do not use strong solvents to clean the air
conditioner.
• Clean the air conditioner filter every two
weeks to avoid overheating caused by air
obstruction. Do not operate without filter.
• Do not obstruct the air intake area of your
air conditioner, as this could cause overheating, thus activating the unit’s security
switch and shutting off the unit.
• Do not block air circulation to outside
louvers of cabinet.
• Do not block air flow inside with blinds,
curtains, or furniture, or outside with
shrubs, enclosures, or other buildings.
• Do not run the air conditioner with an
outside protective cover in place. This
could result in fire or mechanical damage
within the air conditioner.
• Depending on the model, your air conditioner may weigh as much as 95 pounds.
To insure safe handling, obtain the necessary help to lift and position the unit during installation and removal.
• Handle air conditioner with care. Wear
protective gloves whenever lifting or carrying the unit.
• Carefully inspect the location where the
air conditioner will be installed. Be sure it
will support the weight of the unit over an
extended period of time.

Installation/Troubleshooting
Chassis Installation
1. Remove front closure panel. Remove Z-bracket by loosening sup-
port screw (Fig. 1).
2. Remove the rear louver panel and rear closure panel through the
inside of the sleeve by removing the screws. Reinstall rear louver
panel in the sleeve (Fig. 2).
3. If time has elapsed since the sleeve was installed, recheck level for
1/2 bubble outward pitch.
4. Slide chassis into sleeve as far as possible.
5. Attach decorative front (sold separately). DO NOT OPERATE THE
AIR CONDITIONER WITHOUT THE DECORATIVE FRONT.
If you are installing this unit into an existing Fedders sleeve, please compare the depth of your existing sleeve and the depth of your new unit. If
you are installing the “A” size unit into the deeper “B” sleeve, adapter
kit AXB005AB (sold separately) must be used. If you are installing the
“B” size unit into the shallower “A” sleeve, adapter kit AXA00A2B (sold
separately) must be used. These kits are designed to provide maximum
efficiency and proper installation of the unit without having to remove
and replace your existing Fedders sleeve.

Troubleshooting
To save time and expense, check the following before calling an
authorized service station.
Insufficient Cooling
p Turn Master Control to OFF.
p Shut all windows and doors in room.
p Remove any obstructions from inside and outside cabinet louvers.
p Inspect filter and clean if dirty.
p Turn Temperature Control to COOLER.
p Turn Master Control to HIGH COOL.
Under certain conditions the cooling coils directly behind the filter, may
ice up and block the airflow. This is a common occurrence in air conditioners caused when the outside temperature drops below 70°F (21°C)
while the humidity remains high. If this happens, simply turn the unit off
and allow the ice to melt, then resume normal operation.
Unit Fails to Start
p Turn Master Control to OFF.
p Replug line cord plug into outlet to be sure electrical contact is
being made. (If firm contact is not being made, outlet may have to
be replaced).
p Turn Master Control to HIGH FAN. If air circulating fan does not
operate, check house circuit breaker (or fuses).
WARNING
These panels cannot be removed from outside of structure.
Use caution when working around exposed sharp edges of the
cabinet and sharp coils to avoid injury or torn clothing.
Proper use and care of your air conditioner will help ensure
longer life of the unit. It is recommended to
annually inspect and clean the coils and condensate water
passages. Expense of annual inspection is the consumers’
responsibilities.
WARNING
This unit should only be installed by a qualified
HVAC technician in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
Failure to follow these precautions could result in
electrical shock, fire, death or serious personal
injury.
