Table I
Your Room Air Conditioner unit is designed to
be highly efficient and save energy. Follow these
recommendations for greater efficiency.
1 Select thermostat setting that suts yeur
comfo_ needs and leave the thermostat at
that chosen se_ing,
2._The air filter is very_efficient in removing airborne
particles. Keep the air filter clean Typicalfy, the filter
should be cleaned once a month. More
frequent cleaning may be necessary depending
on outdoor and indoor air qua_ity_
3. Use drapes curtains, or shades to keep direct
sunlight from heating your room, but DO NOT
obstruct the air conditioner. Aiiow three (3) inches
around unit to circufate.
4_Start },our air conditioner before outdoor
air becomes hotico_d and uncomfo_abie This
avoids an initial period of discomfort while
the unit is cooling or heating off the room
5 When outdoor temperature is cool
enough, use HIGH or LOW FAN
only.. This circulates indoor air; providing
some coo_ing comfort and utilizes less
electricity than when operating on a
"four RoomAir Conditioner was designed
for easy installation in a single or double-hung
window. NOTE*. This unit is NOT designed for
,vertical (s_ider type) windows
To avoid insta|iation/operating difficul_ise,

fit easily into a eingte or double hung window However
since window designs vary, it may be necessary to
make some modifications for safe and proper
installation.
B. Make sure window and frame is structuraiiy
sound and free from dry and rotted wood
C. For maximum efficiency, install the air conditioner
on side of the house or building which favors more
shade than sunlighL If the unit is in direct sunlighL
it is advisable to provide an awning over the unit,
D Provide su_cient clearance around the cabinet
to allow for ample air circulation through the uniL
See (Fig.B). The rear of the unit should be outdoors
and not in a garage nor inside d a building.
Keep unit as far away as possible from obstacles and
obstructions and at !east 30" above the floor or
ground Curtains and other objects within a room
should be prevented from blocking the air flow.

2, Preparation to Remove the
Air Conditioner SHde_Out Chassis
A, Remove totai of (4) PhHips sc:rews securing
the chassis to the cabinet. There are (2) screws
on each side The set d screws closest to the
front of the unit secure the front pane! to the
cabinet The set of screw closest to the rear of
the unit secure the cabinet to the chassis.
See (Fig, 1).
& Remove the front panel assembly from the
cabinet by gentty pulling it,
C, Grasp the pull hande at the front of the
siide-out chassis and carefuliy slide the
air conditioner out of the cabinet. See (Fig_ 2),
Please seek assistance for this procedure.
Note: Screws must be reinstalled upon
completion of the window installation to
secure slide-out chassis
3. Assembly of the upper & lower channels to
the cabinet
A " L° Shaped TOp Channd: Stick the double
adhedng seal to the" L" shaped top channel, and
then Install the "L" shaped top channet to the
cabinet as shown in (Fig. 3) using (5) 1/4" screws.
& "n" Shaped Bottom Channel installed as shown
in (Fig, 3) using (4) 1/4" screws.
NOTE: For 24K , the bottom channel has been
factor/,instafled, and their shapes may differ
from the other, but their functions are simila_
4, Assembly of the side shutte_
(curtains) to the cabinet,
Siide the shutters into the top and bottom
channels as shown in (Fig, 4). The shutters are
identified (on each frame) as "left" & "right"_ Attach
the shu_ers to the cabinet using (4) 1/4" screws
on each side,

& Installation of Mounting Brackets and
First Sealing Strip
:NOTE: Windows come in a variety of different
style& Therefore it may be necessary to modify
or improve your pa_icu]ar installation
A Attach the bracket assembly to gO°angle suppo_
brackets (Fig, 5) using (2) t t/2" bolts
Two bo_ts per bracket, Secure with the (2)
1/4" lock washers and (2) 1/4"nuts. DO NOT
immediately tighten, these boIts as it may be
necessary to adjust the depth of the bracket
assembty, depending on the depth of your window siII.
See (Fig, 7),Install the two leveling screws into the
90" suppoA brackets. Test the bracket assembly in the
w[ndew before cabinet insta{_ation, if the _eveling
screws are distanced too far away 'from the wali to
provide stabi{ity it may be necessa_ for you to fil_
this area with a solid piece of wood See (Fig: 8)
B, Measure the inside window sill width and find the
center as shown in (Fig, 6), Align the V-slot in each
bracket on these marks and mount the brackets to the
sill using 3/4" screws provided Brackets shouid be
perpendicular to the inside window sill, See (Fig: 6),

to adjust the ang!dpiteh d the window brackets, This is
accomplished by adjusting the distance d the leveting
screw on the outer wall, The maximum angfetpitch
should not exceed more than 3/16'L See (Fi'g.7),
Fig, 7
D Cut the seal strip to fit the underside of the bo_:om
window sash Remove the peekoff backing on the
seal and attach it to this sash. See (Fi9, 9).

Use a solid piece of wood to provide stability This
will be required when sills are extra deep,
See (Fig 8)_
Fig, 9
& Installation of the cabinet
A Align one hole in the bottom of the cabinet with one
hole in the bracket assembly Secure the _binet to the
bracket using (3) 1/4" screws provided Repeat the
same procedure on the opposite side of the cabinet,
See (Fig. 10)
B Ensure the "L" shaped mounting channel is
positioned in front d the sash. The "U" shaped
bottom channe_ d the cabinet should be positioned
in the track provided on the bracket assembly Pu!!
the window down unfii it rests just behind the front
d the "L" shaped mounting channel See (Fig 11).
C, Check to make sure that the cabinet is slanted
slightiy downward on the outside tf necessary,
re-adjust suppo_ bracket as shown in (Fig. 7).
7_ Secure Shutters
Carefully slide the air conditioner back into the
cabineL(Please seek assistance for this procedure).
B. Reinstall the slide_oubchassis security screws
(removed eadier) on both sides d the cabinet
See (_g. 12).
Secure the top of the frames to the window sash with
(2) 3/4" screws
C_ Now, secure bottom frame d shutters using one
shutter ctamp and one 3!4" screw on each side(Fig: 12).
8. Reinstalling Front Panel Assembly
A, Position the front pane_ on the cabinet .starting at the
top, The front panel lock tabs must be inseAed into the
retaining s_ots in the cabinet. Repeat this procedure on
all sides.
B. Secure the front grille to the cabinet using the Phiiips
screws removed earlier(Fig. 1).
