Electrical Connection
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
Recommended grounding method:
For your personal safety, this appliance
must be grounded. This air conditioner
includes a power supply cord with a
3-prong grounding plug. To minimize
possible electrical shock hazard:
• cord must be plugged into a mating 3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle,
• must be grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA 70- latest
version) and
• all local codes and ordinances.
If a mating 3-prong grounding-type wall receptacle is not available, it is the responsibility
of the consumer to have a properly grounded 3-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

Installation Tips
For wood-frame casement windows: It
may be necessary to construct a frame,
using at least 1-inch thick wood, with a
15-1/2-inch wide opening.
For brick or cement building construction:
It may be necessary to put a wood stool
strip under AC, for mounting purposes.
Tools Required
• Flat-head screwdriver
• Phillips-head screwdriver Carpenter's
level
• Tape measure
• Fine tooth saw
• Electric or hand drill
• Knife and scissors
• Pencil
Failure to adhere to the following precautions could result in personal injury and
product damage.
• Because this unit weighs about 88 to
105 pounds, it is recommended that
you have someone help you when
install your new unit, and that you both
use proper lifting techniques. Inspect
the condition of the window where unit
will be installed. Be sure it will support
the weight of the unit.
• This appliance must be installed
according to all applicable codes and
ordinances.
• Handle AC with care. AVOID sharp
metal fins on front and rear coils.
• Make sure your AC does not fall during
installation.

2. Choose a proper sized window, as shown right.
• 15-1/2 inches minimum width
• 16-1/4 inches maximum width
(for casement windows)
• 21-1/4 inches minimum height
(with window panel retainer)
• 20-5/16 inches minimum height
(window panel retainer removed)
• 39-7/16 inches maximum height
NOTE: Height measurement must be of a clear opening above mounting platform. In some cases, due to a
variety of stop and track arrangements, the above
dimensions may vary slightly. If necessary, installation
can be made by alternating window jambs. (See
Alternate Window Jamb Applications.) (continued)

3. Choose the proper window location.
Choose a window that allows the cooled air
to flow freely and directly into room(s) you
wish to cool. Remember, it is difficult to
move air around corners. Also, choose a
window that is within 6 feet of an electrical
outlet. (See Meeting Electrical
Requirements/Receptacle wiring needs.)
Do not use an extension cord.
AVERTISSEMENT
Property Damage Hazard-Failure to adhere
to the following precaution could result in
damage to window or air conditioner.
Be sure wood stool or window track is
securely attached to the building construc-
tion. Use longer screws in sub-framing if
necessary.
Installing Unit in a Sliding Window
1. Attach support brace to platform as
shown. Use adjustment bolt and hex flange
nut to complete assembly. Choose slot and
adjustment bolt hole locations that will create a 45 degree angle between platform and
support brace. Try assembly in the window
to determine if platform will rest properly,
and allow proper slope (3/16-inch lower on
outside).
NOTE: If you are planning to use a siding
protection board (see Step 5) on the outside
of your house, hold board in place when
testing assembly in window.
2. Measure, and lightly mark a line 8-11/16
inches from window jamb.
NOTE: If any sash stop protrudes more than
1 inch from the side window jambs, the 811/16-inch measurement must be increased
accordingly. Screen and storm window
frames may also require adjustments to the
measurement.
3. Center platform assembly on the line
with inside platform tab pressed against
inside edge of window track. Using the
holes in the platform as a guide, mark and
drill two 9/64-inch diameter holes. Drill
holes in either track or stool.

4. Peel off protective backing from track
seal. Apply seal to room side of window
track. Center of seal strip should coincide
with the line marked in Step 2. The two
screw holes drilled in Step 3 should be
directly above seal strip in the inner track.
5. Securely attach a siding-protection board
to side of house.
NOTE: Siding-protection board should be
long enough to span 2 wall studs.
6. Place platform assembly, with platform
tab against inside of window track, and
attach it to window jamb. Use appropriate
length screws (Items
9-11 in Preparing For Installation).
7. Adjust platform assembly so that outside
edge is 3/16-inch lower than inside edge, as
shown right. This ensures proper water
drainage from the air conditioner.
8. Level platform assembly from side-toside.
Also, make sure window track is level. Use
leveling shims as necessary to ensure unit is
level from side-to-side.
9. Measure height of window opening from
top of platform assembly as shown right.
Subtract 20-5/8 inches. Mark this measurement on plastic window panel, along the
longer side.
Apply track seal to window
side of track.
