. TO CLEAN FILTER

The air filter will become dirty as it removes
dust from the inside air.

It should be washed at least every 2 weeks. Donot forceopen

If the air filter remains full of dust, the air
flow will decrease and the cooling capacity
will be redu_d, possibly damaging the unit.

or opent_ far

1. Pull the inlet grille forward and pull out the
air filter. (Fig. 1)

2. Wash the air filter in warm 104_ (40_) water.

WindowRequirements

NOTE: All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood, masonry, or metal.

1. This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung windows with actual opening widths of
22" to 36" The upper and lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening of 14"

from the bottom of the sash to the window st_l.

2Jf storm window presents interference, fasten a 2" wide wood strip (OUTER SILL) to the inner

window sill across the full width of the sill. The w_d 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.
See Rg. 5-2. Top d wood strip should be approximately 3/4" higher than the storm window frame

(STORM WINDOW FRAME) or wood strip (OUTDOORS) to help condensation to drain properly to
the outside.

3. install a se_nd wood strip (_proximate[y 6" long by 11iz"wide and same thickness as first strip} in
the center of the outer sill flush against the back off the inner sill. This will raise the L bra_et as
shown Fig, 5-2,

4. If the distance between STORM WINDOW FRAME and WOOD STRIP MOUNTED ON TOP OF

INNER SiLL is more than 1", two of wood strip are not necessa_,

INNER WOOD STRIP MOUNTED 1" MAX.

Troubleshooting TiPs save time and money!

Review the chart below first and you may not need to call for service.

Normal Operation

• You may hear a pinging noise caused by water being picked up and thrown against the condenser
on rainy days or when the humidity is high. This design feature helps remove moisture and improve
efficiency.

• Water will collect in the base pan during high humidity or on rainy days. The water may overflow
and drip from the outdoor side of the unit.

• The fan may run even when the compressor does not.

Abnormal OPeration

Air conditioner
does not start

Air conditioner

• When power is restored, wait 3 minutes to restart the
air conditioner to prevent tripping of the compressor

overload.

• Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture
blocking the front of:the air conditioner.

• Set TEMP Control to a lower number.

• Clean the filter at least every 2 weeks.
See the Care and Maintenance section.

•When the air conditioner is first turn_ on, you need
