Installation Instructions
READ THIS FIRST! Electrical Requirements
NOTE: This section includes installation instructions for window mount
and thru-the-wall mount methods. Kühl heat/cool units are
designed for permanent thru-the-wall installation. Mounting the
unit in a window will require a window accessory kit, available
through your Friedrich dealer.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Make sure your electrical receptacle has the
same configuration as your air conditioner’s
plug. If different, consult a Licensed Electrician.
Do not use plug adapters.
Do not use an extension cord.
Do not remove ground prong.
Unplug unit prior to performing any service.
Always plug into a grounded 3 prong oulet.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
IMPORTANT: Before you begin the actual installation of the air conditioner,
be sure your electrical requirements are as described below. Consult an
electrical professional as necessary to insure home wiring is per local
electrical codes.
CIRCUIT PROTECTION – An overloaded circuit will invariably cause
malfunction or failure of an air conditioner, therefore, it is necessar y that the
electrical protection is adequate. Due to momentary high current demand
when your air conditioner is started, use a "TIME DELAY" fuse or a HACR
type circuit breaker. Consult your dealer or power company if in doubt.
Your air conditioner must be connected to a power supply with the same
A.C. voltage and hertz as marked on the unit nameplate. Only alternating
current (A.C.), no direct current (D.C.), can be used.
The power cord has a plug with a grounding prong of approved type and a
matching plug receptacle with ground is required. Refer to page 5 for the
correct type of plug receptacle for your model.

Standard Window Installation
IMPORTANT: Some municipalities or jurisdictions require that window
units are installed by licensed contractors. Check your local codes and
ordinances prior to attempting installation.
WARNING
Falling Object Hazard
Not following Installation Instructions
for mounting your air conditioner can
result in property damage, injury, or
death.
STEP 1. Fold down the sides of the carton bottom tray. (See Figure 12).
Figure 12
STEP 3. Once both curtains have been installed, slide hands
underneath the unit to lift and carry to the window, as shown
in Figure 14 below. Obtain assistance as needed
Figure 14
STEP 2. Install side curtains (B in parts list) on both sides of the unit.
Press in the attached push pins (4 on each side) to secure
curtains to the sleeve. (See Figure 13)
Figure 13
16
CAUTION
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people when
installing your air conditioner.
Failure to do so can result in
back or other injury.
STEP 4. Place unit in window with the bottom support rail up against the
back edge of the window sill. Center and close window sash
onto upper support rail. The unit should be slightly tilt
ed
outside (1/4" tilt). (See Figure 15) NOTE:
Depending on the type of window, install the appropriate
security lock as recommended by manufacturer.
Figure 15
If you desire a more permanent installation, you can secure your
curtains using both screw holes and your unit sleeve directly to
the lower window stool using the instruction Steps 5.1 - 5.3 shown
below. If you choose the standard installation already covered in
Steps 1 - 5, then you can proceed to Step 6 found on Page 18.
STEP 5.1.
Pull unit from sleeve, using the side handles located on
either side of the decorative front. Obtain assistance as
needed. Place unit out of the way on a secure, at surface.
(See Figure 17)
Figure 17
STEP 5. Extend side curtains to ll window. Secure outer top corner
of both curtain (left and right) to window jamb and window
sash using supplied screws. 1/2" screws (Item E in parts list)
and 1 1/4" screws ( Item F: in parts list) have been provided to
accommodate varying window types. (See Figure 16)

NOTE: WHEN REMOVING UNIT FROM SLEEVE AND CARRYING OR
HANDLING UNIT, OBTAIN ASSISTANCE OR HELP AS NECESSARY
TO SUPPORT UNIT FROM BOTTOM (BASEPAN), MAINTAINING
CLEARANCE FROM ALL OBSTACLES. (See image below)
CAUTION
Cut/Sever
Although great care has been
taken to minimize sharp edges
in the construction of your unit,
use gloves or other hand
protection when handling unit
Failure to do so can result in minor
to moderate personal injury.

STEP 5.2.
Once unit is removed from sleeve, secure sleeve to window sill through screw hole in the bottom center of sill channel using 1 supplied 1 ¼" screw (F in parts list) . (See Figure 18 A-A)
In Step 5, the window curtains were secured using 1 supplied screw per curtain (2 screws total). For a more permanent application,
you may secure each curtain with an additional screw through the remaining screw hole, insuring each window curtain is secured
to window jamb and sash with 2 screws each (4 screws total). Two sizes of screws (E and F in parts list) have been provided to
accommodate varying window types. (See Figure 18)
NOTE: Securing the curtains using both screw hole locations may not work in certain window types. For those applications, use only
1 screw per curtain and install the appropriate security lock as recommended by window manufacturer.

STEP 6. To minimize air leaks and ensure optimal insulation, install
the included R1 insulation panel. (H in parts list) (See Figure
20 A-C).
Firs
t, measure the width from one side of the air condi-
tioner to the end of the side curtain. (See Figure 20A)
Next cut the R1 insulation panel to the measured width
and remove protective cover, exposing adhesive on
back panel (See Figure 20B)
Last, evenly apply the adhesive side of the panel to the top
and botom of the side curtain frame. (See Figure 20C)
Repeat the step above for the other side curtain frame.

STEP 8.
Now that installation is complete, your unit is ready to operate!
A
Simply plug in the power cord and follow the operation steps
outlined in this manual or your QuickStart Guide.
CIRCUIT PROTECTION - If the air conditioner is circuit protected by a fuse,
use a "TIME DELAY" fuse or HACR type circuit breaker due to momentary
high current demand when your air conditioner is started. Before operating
your unit, verify the ampere rating of the time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
which protects your unit. The ampere rating of the time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker shall be 15 amps
Plug in unit..
