electrical codes and must be installed by a  
!
Electric Shock Hazard  
licenced electrician. If you have any questions  
regarding the following instructions, contact a  
licenced electrician.  
If the air conditioner has a serial plate rating  
of 115 volts and up to and including 7.5 amps,  
the unit maybe on a fuse or circuit breaker  
with other devices. However, the maximum  
amps on all devices for that fuse or circuit  
breaker can not exceed the amps of the fuse  
for the circuit breaker.  
2. Check available power supply and resolve any  
wiring problems BEFORE installing and operating  
this unit.  
If the air conditioner has a serial plate rating  
of 115 volts and greater than 7.5 amps it  
must have its own fuse or circuit breaker,  
and no other device or unit should be  
operated on the fuse or circuit breaker.  
3. For your safety and protection, this unit is  
grounded through the power cord when  
plugged into a matching wall outlet. If you are  
not sure whether your wall outlet is properly  
grounded, please consult a licenced  
electrician.  
If the air conditioner has a serial plate rating  
of 230 volts, it must have its own fuse or  
circuit breaker, and no other device or unit  
should be operated on the fuse or circuit  
breaker.  
4. The wall outlet (3-pin) must match the plug  
(3-pin) on the power cord supplied with the unit.  
DO NOT use plug adapters or extension cords.  
See (Table 1) for receptacle and fuse information.  
5. The rating plate on the unit contains electrical  
and other technical data. The rating plate is  
located on the right side of the unit. Make sure  
to use the correct power supply according to the  
rating plate of your air conditioner.  
To avoid the possibility of personal injury,  
disconnect power to the unit before installing  
or servicing.

Tips before installation  
Your RoomAir Conditioner unit is designed to  
be highly efficient and save energy. Follow these  
!
!
CAUTION  
To avoid installation/operating difficulties,  
read the instructions thoroughly.  
recommendations for greater efficiency.  
1. Select thermostat setting that suits your  
comfort needs and leave the thermostat at  
that chosen setting.  
NOTE:  
Save the shipping carton and packing  
materials for future storage or transport of the unit.  
Please check the contents of the hardware kit against  
the corresponding model check list, prior to  
installation of the unit.  
2. The air filter is very efficient in removing airborne  
particles. Keep the air filter clean. Typically, the filter  
should be cleaned once a month. More  
frequent cleaning may be necessary depending  
on outdoor and indoor air quality.  
See lists below.(Fig.A)  
3. Use drapes, curtains, or shades to keep  
direct sunlight from heating your room, but  
DO NOT obstruct the air conditioner.Allow air to  
circulate around the unit without obstructions.  
Fig.AInstallationHardware
3/4"Screws (10)  
Shutter Clamp(2)  
1/4"Screws (23)  
Washer(10)  
4. Start your air conditioner before outdoor  
air becomes hot/cold and uncomfortable. 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 cooling comfort, and utilizes less  
electricity than when operating on a  
cooling setting.

Installation instructions  
E. Be certain the proper electrical outlet is within reach  
of the installation. Use only a single outlet circuit rated  
at proper current (see table 1 on page 4). All wiring  
should be in accordance with local and national  
electrical codes.  
!
!
CAUTION  
Because the compressor is located on the  
controls side of the unit (right side), this side  
will be heavier and more awkward to manipulate.  
Inadequate support on control side of the unit  
can result in personal injury and damage to your  
unit and property. Therefore, it is recommended  
to have someone assist you during the installation  
of this unit.  
F. Your unit was designed to evaporate condensation  
under normal conditions. However, under extreme  
humidity conditions, excess condensation may cause  
the basepan to overflow to the outside.  
The unit should be installed where condensation  
run-off cannot drip on pedestrians or neighboring  
properties.  
1. Select the Best Location  
A. Your room air conditioner was designed to  
fit easily into a single or double hung window. However,  
since window designs vary, it may be necessary to  
make some modifications for safe and proper  
installation.  
Awning  
20"

B. Make sure window and frame is structurally  
sound and free from dry and rotted wood.  
12" Min.  
C. For maximum efficiency, install the air conditioner  
on side of the house or building which favors more  
shade than sunlight. If the unit is in direct sunlight,  
it is advisable to provide an awning over the unit.  
20"  
Min.  
Fence,  
wall, or  
other  
obstacle.  
D. Provide sufficient clearance around the cabinet  
to allow for ample air circulation through the unit.  
See (Fig.B). The rear of the unit should be outdoors  
and not in a garage nor inside of a building.  
30" Min.  
Side  
obstruction  
Keep unit as far away as possible from obstacles and  
obstructions and at least 30" above the floor or

Care and Maintenance  
When servicing the air conditioner, be sure to  
turn the mode switch to the "OFF" position and  
disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.  
!
!
CAUTION  
DO NOT forget to install the air filter. If the air  
conditioner is left to operate without the air filter,  
dust is not removed from the room and may  
cause your air conditioner to fail.  
1. DO NOT use gasoline, benzine, thinner or  
other chemicals on the air conditioner as these  
substances may cause damage to the paint finish  
and deformation of plastic parts.  
When the air filter inlet grill and cabinet are dirty,  
wipe with lukewarm water (below 40 C/104 F).  
Use of mild detergent is recommended.  
2. Never attempt to pour water directly in  
front of the unit as this will cause deterioration of  
the electrical insulation.
