PIPE to the rear hoie of the BASE PAN
Drain pipe

AIR FILTER CLEANING
The air filter should be checked at least twice a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped
particles in the filter will build up and block the airflow. This reduces the cooling capacity and also
_uses an accumulation of frost on the cooling coils.
1. Open the inlet grille upward by pulling out the bottom of the inlet grille
2, Remove the air filter from the front grille assembly by pulling the air filter up slightly,
3. Wash the filter using lukewarm water below 40_(104_).
4, Gently shake the excess water from the filter completely. Repla_ the filter.
HOW TO USE THE REVERSIBLE INLET GRILLE
The grille is designed to caean the filter both upward and downward.
®
(a) (b)
A. Before attaching the front grille to the cabinet, if you want to pull out the fil-
ter upward;
1. Open the inlet grille slightly (a)
2. Turn inside out the front grille (a),
3. Disassemble the inlet grille from the front grille with separating the hinged part by inserting a
straight type screw-driver tip (b).
4. Then, rotate the inlet grille 180 degrees and insert the hooks into bottom holes of the front grille.
5. insert the filter and attach the front grille to the cabinet.
B. If you want to pull out the filter downward;
The griIle is already designed that way.

• Air Conditioner will not operate.
1. Is the air conditioner plugged into the outlet?
2. Is the fuse or breaker good?
3. Is the voltage unusually high or low?
• Air from the unit does not feel cold enough on the cooling setting.
1. Is the setting temperature correct?
2. Is the air filter clogged with dust?
3. Is the air flow from the outside(condensers) obstructed?
Leave a clearance of over 1 meter(3.28 feet) between the back of the air conditioner and the wall or
fence behind it.
4. Are the door or windows open, or is there any source of heat in the room?
NOTE: If it is difficult to find out the cause of the trouble, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and
contact the dealer.
• OFF-SEASON MAINTENANCE

I
SELECT THE BEST LOCATION
1. To prevent vibration and noise, make sure the
unit is installed securely and firmly
2. Install the unit where the sunlight does not
shine directly on tlhe unit.
3. The outside of the _binet must extend
outward for at least 12" and there should be
no obstacles, such as a fence or wall, within
20" from the back of the cabinet because it will
prevent heat radiation of the condenser.
Restriction of outside air will greatly reduce
the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.
CAUTION: All side louvers of the cabinet must
remain exposed to the outside of the structure.
WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
1, This unit is designed for installation in
standard double hung windows with actual
opening widths from 27" to 39",
The top and bottom window sash must open
sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of
16" from the bosom of the upper sash to the
window stool
2. Install the unit a little slanted so the back is
slightly lower than the front(about i/2").
This will force condensed water to flow to the
outside,
3 Install the unit with the bottom about 30"_60"
above the floor level,
