Airflow Selection and Adjustment
Air flow direction adjustment

move it in the direction that you would like the air to be directed. Please
louvers than the other.
Fresh air and exhaust control
Your air conditioner has the ability to bring fresh air into the room or exhaust stale air out of the room. The control slide is found on the upper part of the unit (See Figure 13).
TO BRING IN FRESH AIR – Move the lever to the Fresh Air 
position which allows outside air to enter the room. This is useful in fall and spring as a means of bringing in fresh outside air when using FAN ONLY . It can also be used in the summer with the compressor in the Cooling Mode if you wish.
TO EXHAUST INDOOR AIR – Move the lever to the Exhaust 
position. This will allow stale air to be expelled to the outside of the dwelling. This is especially handy in the spring or fall when indoor air tends to get stale, or after a social gathering involving smokers, or to remove cooking odors.
BEST PERFORMANCE – Move the lever to the Re-Circulate Position

Installation Instructions
READ THIS FIRST! Electrical Requirements
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.
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 your air conditioner, check local electrical codes and the information below. Your air conditioner must be connected to a power source with the same alternating current (A.C.) voltage and amperage as marked on the name plate located on the chassis. Only A.C. can be used. Direct Current (D.C.) cannot be used.
CIRCUIT PROTECTION – Use on single outlet circuit only. An overloaded circuit will invariably cause malfunction or failure of an air conditioner, therefore, it is necessary that the electrical protection is adequate. Due to momentary high current demand when the air conditioner starts, use a "TIME DELAY" fuse or a HACR type circuit breaker. Consult your dealer or power company if in doubt.
Refer to the electrical name plate located on the air conditioner chassis (See page 2) to determine the correct fuse or circuit breaker amperage for your model (See Table 1 on Page 6 for electrical receptacle types).
The power cord has a plug with a grounding prong and a matching receptacle is required.
The following instructions are for standard chassis model groups
sizes listed in Table 3.

STEP 2. Hold the cabinet stationary, then use the hand grips on both ends of the control unit support bracket to pull the chassis out of the cabinet (See Figure 15).
STEP 3. Remove the large white foam blocks used to restrain the compressor during shipment (See Figure 16). Inspect base pan for dislodged white foam blocks and remove. Do not remove any other foam parts.

STEP 4. Anchor the side angles (Item 6) by engaging the tabs of the lower sill plate (See Figure 17, Detail B-2) with the loops of the side angle. Engage the tabs of the top angle (Item 5) with the top loops of the side angle (See Figure 17, Detail B-1). Install two (2) screws (Item 7) to secure the top angle tabs and the side angle to the cabinet (See Figure 17, Detail B-1).

CAUTION
Remove Shipping Blocks
Prior to operating the unit remove the foam shipping blocks.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit which is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty!
STEP 5. Check the window sill and frame to be sure they are in good
STEP 6. CABINET MOUNTING – Raise the lower window 1/4" more than the height of the cabinet. Carefully slide the cabinet through the opening until the lower sill plate channel rests behind the window sill and the top angle rests against the window (See Figure 18). Center the cabinet within the opening. Drill three (3) 5/32" diameter pilot holes into window sill using the holes in the cabinet sill plate as a guide. Install
three (3) #12 x 2" long screws (Item 4) (See Figure 18).
STEP 7. OUTSIDE SUPPORT MOUNTING – Refer to Figures 19 and 20. Assemble the support brackets (Item 1) to the bottom of the cabinet with four (4) 10-24 1” long screws (Item 2) and four
combination of the elongated holes of the bracket and different hole locations in the cabinet, to bring the bottom support bracket pads in contact with the wall. A 1" x 4" or 2" x 4" SPACER SHOULD BE USED BETWEEN THE WALL AND SUPPORT THE BRACKETS WHEN INSTALLED ON ALUMINUM OR VINYL SIDING. Drill 5/32" diameter pilot holes and secure the brackets to the wall with two (2) 12A x 2" long screws (Item 4).
NOTE: DO NOT LEVEL the cabinet from front to back. Make sure there is approximately 3/8” to 1/2” slope (1/8 to 1/4 bubble on level) toward the outside of the house.
Adjust the support brackets to provide an inside-to-outside slope for excess condensation drainage (Refer to Standard Window Installation, Figures 19 through 23). Tighten all screws.
Alternate support method A: If you have a wide window sill which prevents you from mounting the brackets as shown in Figure 22, try the following: Using the elongated holes and different hole locations in the cabinet, set the placement of the bracket to support the unit’s weight (Figure 22). Tighten all screws.
Alternate support method B: If the window ledge gap is narrow, try the
as shown in Figure 23. Bend the short piece so it will be vertical when installed. Adjust the placement as required. Tighten all screws.
STEP 8.
between the window side channels and cabinet. (Figure 24). Make sure you include the depth of the window channel.
NOTICE
For YOUR security and safety, YOU must provide a means of preventing the upper part of the window from opening.
STEP 9. To assemble the wingboard panels, push on the "J" type speed nuts (Item 9) and spring steel clips (Item 10) (See Figures 25) on page 26. Secure each panel with two (2) screws (Item 11).
