IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The safety instructions below willtell you how to use your room air conditioner to avoid harm to yourself or
damage to your ROOM AIR CONDITIONER.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or otherflammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance. Read product labels for flammability and
other warnings.
_PREVENT ACCIDENTS
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury
to persons when using your air conditioner, follow
basic precautions, including the following:
• Be sure the electrical service is adequate for the
model you have chosen.
• Ifthe air conditioner is to be installed in a window,
you will probably want to clean both sides of the
glass first. If the window is a triple-track type with a
screen panel included, you may want to remove
the screen completely before installation.
• Be sure the air conditioner has been securely and
correctly installed according to the separate
installation instructions provided with this manual.
Save this manual and installation instructions for
possible future use in removing or reinstalling this
unit.
• Use gloves when handling the air conditioner. Be
careful to avoid cuts from sharp metal fins on front
and rear coils.
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
The complete electrical rating ofyour new room air
conditioner isstated on the serial plate. Refer tothe
rating when checking the electrical requirements.
• Be sure the air conditioner is properly grounded.
To minimize shock and fire hazards, proper
grounding is important. The power cord is
equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for
protection against shock hazards.
• Your air conditioner must be plugged into in a
propedygrounded wall receptacle. If the wall
receptacle you intendto use is not adequately
groundedor protected by a time delay fuse or
circuitbreaker, have a qualified electricianinstall
the proper receptacle.
• Do not run air conditionerwith a protective
covering. This could result in mechanical damage
withinthe air conditioner.
• Do not use an extension cord or an adapter
plug.
_ Avoid fire hazard or electric shock.
Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
Do not remove any prong from the power cord.
Grounding type

circumstances cut,
remove, or bypass
the grounding prong

ENERGY SAVING IDEAS
• The capacity of the room air conditioner must fit
the room size for efficient and satisfactory
operation.
• Install the room air conditioner on the shady side
of your home. A window that faces north is best
because it is shaded most of the day.
• Do not block air flow inside with blinds, curtains, or
furniture, or oUtsidewith shrubs, enclosures, or
other buildings.
• Close the floor and wall registers and the fireplace
damper so cool air does not escape up the
chimney and into the duct work.
• Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed
during the sunniest part of the day.
• Clean the air filter as recommended in the
MAINTENANCE sectionof this manual.
• Proper insulation and weather strippingin your
home will help keep warm air out and cool air in.
• External house shading with trees, plants or
awnings will help reduce the air conditioner's work
load.
• Operate heat producing appliances such as
ranges, washers, dryers, and dishwashers during
the coolest part of the day.

INSTALLATION
Pick a locationwhichwillallow you to blow the cold
air into the area you want. Windows used for
installation must be strong enough to support the
weight of the air conditioner. Good installation with
special attention to the proper position of the unit
will lessen the chance that service will be needed.
When cooling more than one room, installation
location is very important. If air conditioner is
blocked by a storm window frame, see step 19 on
page 8 before beginning to install.To cool your
rooms, cold air must be blown from the air
conditioner in a straight path.
HOW TO INSTALL

enough to raise the height of the window sillsothat
the unit can be installed without interference from the
the storm window frame. See FIG. 20.
Top of woodstrip should be approximately 3/4"
higher than the storm window frame to help
condensation to drain properly to the outside.
• Install a second wood strip (approximately 6" long by

HOW AND WHY
Your room air conditioner provides the following
functions to make hot weather living more
comfortable:
• Cools and circulates room air.
• Lowers humidify by removing excess moisture.
• Filters out summertime dust, dirt, and some
airborne impurities.
The air conditioner performs these functions by
drawing room air through a filter which traps dust
and dirt particles. The air then passes over a
cooling coil which refrigerates the air and removes
excess moisture. The same air is then returned to
the room- cooler, drier, and cleaner. Moisture
removed from the room air is carried to the outside
and evaporated.
Your air conditioner is designed to be easy to
operate and to provide plenty of cooling power.
NORMAL SOUNDS F,G.21
Asidefrom the regular fan motor and compressor
sounds coming from your air conditioner, you will
once in a while hear a pingingsound. This is the
resultof moisturebeing picked up from the air inthe
roomand thrown against the air conditioner'sfan.
This is normal and should not be cause for concern.
Also, do not be alarmed ifyou hear a slight hissing
or gurglingsound coming from your air conditioner
after itis off. These are normal coolant noises.
CAPACITY AND RUNNING TIME
Proper unit size is important in deciding the desired
comfort for the area you want to cool. The proper
size is determined by the number of square feet in
the area to be cooled. An oversized unit willcool,
but not dehumidify, leaving the area cool and damp.
Whenever the heat or humidify load is above normal
the air conditioner must run longer and more often
to keep the desired temperature you have selected,
Under heavy heat load conditions the air conditioner
may need to run constantly to keep the temperature
you want.
At times using the HIGH FAN setting to circulate the
room air may make it comfortable even though you
do not have the air conditioner set to cool the air.
This will decrease your cost of use.

You may hear air
movement from the
fan.

The unit may vibrate
and make noise
because of poor wall

USING THE AIR CONDITIONER
_To reduce the riskof fire, electric
shock,or injuryto persons, read the important
SAFETY instructionssection beforeoperating this
appliance
To begin operating the air conditioner after
installation, follow these steps:
1. Plug in the air conditioner.(Toprevent electrical
hazards, do not use an extension cordor an
adopter plug.)
2. Set the exhaust vent to the CLOSE position.
3. Set the TEMP Control tothe coolestsetting.
4. Set the MODE Controlat the highest COOL level.
5. Adjust the louversfor comfortableair flow.
6. Once the room hascooled, adjustthe TEMP and
MODE controltothe settingyou find most
comfortable.
NOTE : Ifthe air conditioner isturned off, wait3
minutesbefore restarting.This allows pressure
inside the compressorto equalize. Failureto wait 3
minutesbefore restartingmay cause inefficient
operation.
If you move the TEMP Control toa warmer, then
immediately back to a coolersetting, the unitwill
shut off. Wait 3 minutesbefore restarting.
VENT CONTROL
The Vent Control allowsthe air conditionerto either
racirculate insideair (CLOSE) or exhaust air tothe
outside (OPEN). (FIG. 23)
• The CLOSE positionis used when maximum
coolingisdesired. It may also be used for air
recirculationwithoutcoolingwhen the air
conditioner isset in the FAN position.
• The OPEN position removes stale air fromthe
roomand exhausts itto the outside. Fresh air is
drawn intothe roomthroughyourhome's normal
air passages.
• The OPEN or CLOSE positioncan be used with
any fan selection.

AIR FILTER CLEANING
The Air Filter will become dirty as it removes dust
from the inside air. It should be washed at least
every 2 weeks. If the Air Filter remains full of dust,
the air flow will decrease and the cooling capacity
will be reduced, possibly damaging the unit.
• Pull the inlet grille forward, grasping both tabs,
then pull out the air filter. (FIG. 25)
• Wash the Air Filter under the faucet with warm
water. Be sure to shake off all the water before
replacing the filter. (FIG. 26)
FIG. 25
HOW TO REMOVE THE
FRONT GRILLE
• Open the inlet grille downward.
• Remove the screw securing the Front Grille.
• Push the grille up from the bottom and pull the top
of the grille away from the case to lift the top tabs

FIG. 26
AIR CONDITIONER CLEANING
Clean the front grille and inlet grille by wiping with a
cloth dampened in a mild detergent solution.
The cabinet may be washed with mild soap or
detergent and lukewarm water, then polished with
liquid appliance wax.
To ensure continued peak efficiency, thecondenser
coils (outdoorside of the unit)shouldbe checked
periodicallyand cleaned ifthey become clogged
with soot or dirtfrom the atmosphere. Brush or
vacuum exterior coilsto remove debdsfrom fins.
