Parts needed
■ If metal casement window installation, a ³⁄₄ in. (19 mm) wood
filler panel will be needed for opening greater than 15¹⁄₂ in.
(39.4 cm) wide. See “Metal and Wood Casement Window
Installation.”
■ If wood casement window installation, a 1 in. (2.5 cm) wood
frame will be needed. See “Metal and Wood Casement
Window Installation.”
NOTE: The installation of this air conditioner is intended to be
permanent. When installed in an apartment or rental property,
permission to make modifications should be obtained from
owner or landlord of building prior to installation of unit.
Electrical Requirements
WARNING
Location Requirements
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Check the location where the air conditioner will be installed.
Proper installation is your responsibility. Make sure you have
everything necessary for correct installation.
The location should provide:
■ A horizontal sliding or casement type window with a minimum
width of 15¹⁄₂ in. (39.4 cm).
■ Grounded electrical outlet within 4 ft (122 cm) of where the
power cord exits the air conditioner.
NOTE: Do not use an extension cord.
■ Free movement of air to rooms to be cooled.
■ Adequate window frame assembly and side of structure
support for weight of air conditioner. Air conditioner weighs
approximately 82 lbs (37.2 kg) to 100 lbs (45 kg).
NOTE: Do not install the air conditioner in an area where the front
panel will be exposed to heat sources that will raise the panel
surface temperature above 120°F (50°C).

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.
In the U.S. only: If codes permit and a separate ground wire is
used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine
that the ground path is adequate.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure air
conditioner is grounded.
A three-wire, single-phase, 60-Hz, AC-only, electrical supply is
required on a separate circuit. A 15-amp time-delay fuse or
circuit breaker is required. Copper wire (14 gauge) is required.
The fuse size must not exceed the circuit rating specified on the
model and serial number label. The model and serial number
label is located on the right-hand side of the cabinet.
Specific electrical requirements are listed in the chart. Follow the
requirements for the type of plug on the power supply cord.

Recommended ground method
For your personal safety, this air conditioner must be grounded.
This air conditioner is equipped with a power supply cord having
a grounded 3 prong plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating, grounded 3 prong outlet,
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If a

conditioner.
■ The window frame assembly and side of structure must be
adequate to support weight of air conditioner.
This air conditioner is designed to fit into most casement-type
windows. As shipped from factory, unit will fit into a minimum
window opening 15¹⁄₂ in. (39.4 cm) wide and 21 in. (53.3 cm) high.

AIR CONDITIONER USE
Operating your air conditioner properly helps you to obtain the
best possible results.
This section explains proper air conditioner operation.
IMPORTANT:
■ If you turn off the air conditioner, wait at least 3 minutes
before turning it back on. This prevents the air conditioner
from blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
■ Do not try to operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode
when outside temperature is below 66°F (19°C). The inside
evaporator coil will freeze up, and the air conditioner will not
operate properly.
NOTES:
■ In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will not
automatically turn back on.
■ If the electronic control will not respond to touch pad or
remote control commands, it is necessary to unplug the unit
from the electrical outlet for 5 seconds before plugging
back in.
