damper so cool air does not escape up the
chimney or into the duct work,
® Keep biinds and drapes in other windows closed
during the surtniest part of the day.
»Clearr the air filter as recommended in the
MAiNTCNANCE section of this manual.
■ Proper Insulation and weather stripping in your
home will help keep warm air out and cool air In,
• External house shading with trees, plants or
awninp wi!i help reduce the ^rcondittoiief's work
load.
• Operate heat producing appliances such as

OPERATION
HOW AND WHY
Your room air conditionsr prowdes the following
functions to mate hot wealter living mors
comforteijie;
• Co<^s and circulates raom air.
" Lowers humictiiy by removir® excess moisture.
• Filters out sumnoerttae dwf, dirt, and some
aifbome impurifies.
The air conctWoner perfomis these functtons by
drawing room air torough a filter which traps dust
and dirt parttofes. The air then passes over a
cooling coll which reWgetates the air and removes
excess moisture. The same air is then returned to
tee room- cooler, drier, and cleaner. Molstur©
removed from the room air is carried to the outside
and evaporated.
Your air condfHona" is designed to be easy to
operate and to provide plenty of cooling power.
NORMAL SOUNDS fig.23
Aside from the regularían motor and oomprassor
sounds coming from your air conditioner, you wil'
once in a whit© hear a pinging sound. This is the
result of moisture being picked up from the air tn Ihe
room and thrown against the air conditioner's fan.
This is noima! and should not be cause torconoerri.
Also, do not be alarmed if you hear a slight hissing
or surgiing sound ocming tom your air conditioner
after it is off. These are normal coolant noises.
p Compressor
' The modem high effidency
compressor may have a high
pitched hum or pulsating
noise that cyeles on and off.
- Unit VibraBon
The unit may vibrate
and make noise
because of poor wai!
or window construction.
^ Condenser
You may hear droplete of water hitting
the conctanœr causing a pinging or
cSicking sound.
Fan
You may hear air
movement from
tee fan.

FIQ.2S
CAPACiTY AND RUNNING TIME
Proper unit size is important itt: deciding the desired
comfort for the area you want to cool. The proper
size is determined by the number of square feet
in the area to be cooled, indoor and outdoor
iemperatura and humidity.
Whffliever the heat or humidity load is above normai
Hie air coftdffloner must run longer and more often
to keep tee desired temperature you have selected.
Under heavy heat toad conditions the arroonditionsr
may need to run constantly to keep toe tempsratore
you want.
At times using the MED FAN setting to circulate the
room air may make it comfortable even though the
air is not being cooled. This will decrease your cost
of use.
