• THERMOSTAT

Turn the thermostat control to the desired setting. The centrol position is a normal setting for average conditions. You can change this setting, if neces-

sary, in accordance with your temperature prefer- ence.

The thermostat automatically controls cooling or heating, but the fan runs continuously whenever the air conditioner is in operation. If the room is too

warm, turn the thermostat control clockwise. If the

room is too cool, turn the themostat control anti- clockwise.

A slight heat odor may come from the unit when first switching to HEAT after the cooling season is over. This odor, caused by fine dust particles on the heater, will disappear quickly.

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 causes 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°C(104°F).

4. Gently shake the excess water from the filter completely. Replace the filter.

HOW TO USE THE REVERSIBLE INLET GRILLE

The grille is designed to clean the filter both upward and downward.

(a) (b) (c)

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 grille is already designed that way.

BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

, 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?

Use 20 AMP, time

delay fuse or circuit

breaker.

• 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

1. Clean the air filter and re-install.

2. Turn the power off by operation knob, and disconnect the power plug from the wall receptacle.

INSTA 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 the unit.

3. The outside of the cabinet must extend outward for at least I2" 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 !/2"). This will force condensed water to flow to the

outside_

3_ Install the unit with the bosom about 30"~60 ''

above the floor level.
