^ instali the unit where the suniight does not shine
directly on the unit.
^ The outside of the cabinet must extend outward
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.
^ Install the unit a little slanted so the back is slightly lower than the front (about 1/4").
This will force condensed water to flow to the outside.
5) Install the unit with the bottom about 30"~60" above the floor level.
