WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER PLUG.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Window Requirements
Size
NOTE: Secure all supporting parts to firm wood, masonry, or metal.
x This room air conditioner is designed for installation in standard double-hung windows with actual opening widths from 29” to 41”.
x The upper and lower window sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 19” from the bottom of the upper sash to the inside sill.
x The height offset between the inside sill and outside sill must be less than 1 ¼".
Preparation of Cabinet
1Remove the 4 screws which fasten the cabinet at both sides and at the back. (2 of the screws will be used later to refasten the sides of the cabinet to the unit.)

29" to 41" 
19" min
Clearance
Proper clearance enhances the cooling efficiency of the product.
1If a storm window presents interference, fasten a 2” wide wood strip to the inner window sill across the full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raise the height of the window sill so that the unit can be installed without interference by the storm window frame.
2(See drawing.) The top of the wood strip on the inside sill should be approximately ¾” higher than the storm window frame or wood strip on the
outside sill to help condensation to drain properly to the outside.
3If necessary, install a second wood strip (same thickness as first strip) across the full width of the outer sill, flush against the back of the inner sill.

HOW TO USE
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read and follow this entire Use & Care Guide, including the Important Safety Instructions, before operating this air conditioner.
Control Panel and Remote Control
Remote Control
1POWER
Press to turn the air conditioner ON or OFF.
2FAN SPEED BUTTON
Press to set the fan speed to Low, Medium, or High. The display will show one, two or three bars.
3DELAY ON/OFF TIMER
Delay ON - When the air conditioner is off, set it to automatically turn on from 1 to 24 hours later, at its previous mode and fan settings.
Delay OFF - When the air conditioner is on, set it to automatically turn off from 1 to 24 hours later.
Each press of the Timer button advances the timer by 1 hour. After the last press the display returns to the temperature setting.
4OPERATION MODE BUTTON
x Press the Mode button to cycle between 4 types of air conditioner operation: Cool / Energy Saver / Fan Only / Dry.
Cool - This mode is ideal on hot days to cool and dehumidify the room quickly. Use the Temp 
buttons to set the desired room temperature and use the Fan Speed button to set the desired fan circulation speed.
Energy Saver - In this mode the compressor and fan turn off when the set temperature is achieved. Approximately every 3 minutes the fan turns on to allow the unit sensor to accurately determine if more cooling is needed.
Fan Only - In this mode the fan circulates air but the compressor does not run. Use the Fan Speed button to set fan speed to High, Medium or Low. In this mode, you can not adjust the set temperature.
Dry - This mode is ideal for rainy and damp days |
|
to dehumidify the room rather than cooling it |
|
significantly. Humidity is removed from the room by |
|
the combination of compressor operation and the |
|
fan speed fixed at Low. The compressor and fan |
|
turn off once the set temperature is reached. Fan |
|
speed cannot be adjusted in Dry mode. |

8SMART CONNECT FUNCTION
SMART icon LED turns ON when unit is successfully connected to the internet.
AUTO RESTART
If the air conditioner turns off due to a power outage, it will restart automatically once the power is restored, with the same settings as were set before the unit turned off.
ENERGY SAVER
The unit defaults to the Energy Saver mode each time the unit is switched on except in Fan mode or when power is restored after an electrical power outage.
CAUTION

Inserting the Remote Control Battery
1Push the release in with your thumb and remove the cover on the back of the remote control.
2Insert one new AAA 1.5 V battery, paying attention to the polarity.
NOTE: One new battery is supplied with the air conditioner for use in the remote control.
3 Reattach the cover on the remote control.
NOTE
x Do not use a rechargeable battery. Make sure that the battery is new.
x In order to prevent discharge, remove the battery from the remote control if the air conditioner is not going to be used for an extended period of time.
x Keep the remote control away from extremely hot or humid places.
x To maintain optimal operation of the remote control, the remote sensor should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
