air to the outside (Open).  
The Closed position is used when maximum cooling is desired. It may also be used for air re-

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS  
NOTE: These instructions describe installation in a typical wood framed window with a wood SLIDE  
-BY sash, or installation in a metal CASEMENT window. Modification may be necessary when installing  
in windows made differently than those shown in these instructions.  
,,  
Meeting Electrical Requirements  
Observe all national and local  
governing codes and ordinances.  
!
WARNING  
Electrical Shock and Personal Injury Hazard  
Do not, under any circumstances,  
remove the power supply cord  
grounding prong.  
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.  
DO NOT ground to a gas line.  
If cold water pipe is interrupted by plastic,  
non-metallic gaskets, or other insulating  
materials, DO NOT use for grounding.  
Check with a qualified electrician if you are  
in doubt as to whether the appliance is pro-  
perly grounded.  
NOTE: If codes permit, and a separate grounding  
wire is used; it is recommended that a qualified  
electrican determine that the grounding path is  
adequate and not interrupted by plastic, non-  
metallic gaskets, or other insulating materials.  
Receptacle wiring  
DO NOT modify power supply cord plug. If it  
does not fit outlet, have a proper outlet  
installed by a qualified electrician.  
DO NOT have a fuse in the neutral or  
grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral, or  
grounding circuit could result in an electrical  
shock.  
Receptacle wiring should be a minimum of 14  
gauge. Use copper wire only. It is your responsibility  
to provide proper and adequate receptacle wiring,  
installed by a qualified electrician.  
Electrical requirements  
A time delay fuse or time delay circuit breaker is  
also required. A separate circuit, serving only this  
appliance, MUST be provided.  
DO NOT use an extension cord with this  
appliance.  
Failure to follow these instructions could result  
in electrical shock, serious injury, or death.

CARE AND CLEANING  
WAURTNIIONGN!  
Clean your air conditioner occasionally to keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug the unit  
shock  
before cleaning to prevent or fire hazards.  
Air Filter Cleaning  
The air filter should be checked at least once a  
month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped  
particles in the filter can build up and cause an  
accumulation of frost on the cooling coils.  
Grasp the filter by the center and pull up and out.  
Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing deter-  
gent and warm water. Rinse filter thoroughly.  
Gently shake excess water from the filter. Be  
sure the filter is thoroughly dry before replacing.  
Or, instead of washing you may vacuum the  
filter clean.  
104°F (40°C)  
Note: Never use hot water over 4to  
clean the air filter. Never attempt to operate the  
unit without the air filter.  
Cabinet Cleaning  
Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent  
shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may  
be dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with  
a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water  
and mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse  
thoroughly and wipe dry.  
Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the  
cabinet front.  
Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before  
wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around  
the controls may cause damage to the air conditioner.  
Plug in air conditioner.  
Winter Storage  
If you plan to store the air conditioner during the winter,  
remove it carefully from the window according to the  
installation instructions. Cover it with plastic or return it  
to the original carton.  
NOTE: To prevent rust or electrical connections from being  
damaged, store air conditioner in an upright position and in  
a dry place.
