Preparations for Installing the Window Kit

window exhaust kit that can be used to vent the unit out of a window.
Before you begin, make sure that you have all the parts necessary for installation and that a
suitable location is picked.
Window Kit Parts list:
If you have multiple windows, choose one that is near an electrical outlet that will be able to
provide sufficient power to your unit. See the power requirements listed on the product label
printed on the side, or on the back of your portable air conditioner.
Your window kit can be installed on a horizontal or vertical sliding window as shown in the
following images and instructions. Follow the instructions for your desired window kit installation.

Installation Preparation
Before you begin, make sure you have all the parts necessary for installation and that you have
selected a suitable location.
Location
When choosing a location, please keep in mind:
The air conditioner should be placed on a firm, level location in order to minimize noise and
vibration. Your appliance has casters to aid in placement. Use caution when rolling on
carpet and do not attempt to roll the unit over any objects as this may result in the unit
tipping over.
Never place any obstacles near the air inlet or outlet of the unit.
Allow at least 20” of space from the wall for efficient performance.
Window Slider Kit Preparation:
Your window slider kit has been designed to fit most standard vertical and horizontal window
applications
If the window opening is less than the minimum length of the window slider kit, you may trim
the slider panel B. (Trim the side farthest from the exhaust port).
Slide Panel A inside panel B and adjust to the correct width. To secure the panels together,
press the Window Slider Kit ‘Bolt’ into the appropriate slot on the edge of Panel A.
