2. Pick the right window.
First, decide what
room(s) you want to cool. Then choose a
window that will allow the air-conditioned
air to
flow freely and directly into the room(s) you
want cooled. Remember,
it's difficult to move
air around corners. Choose a window that is
also near an electrical outlet. (See "Electrical
Requirements"
on pages 3-7 for receptacle
and wiring needs.) Do not use an extension
cord.
The window in which you place your air
conditioner should have an opening of at least
26 inches in width and at least 18 inches in
height. Standard installation parts are supplied
for double-hung
sash windows up to 40 inches
in width.
3. Remove front panel by pushing top of panel
down and out. This protects the panel from
damage and makes the air conditioner easier
to handle during installation.
4. Slide unit out of cabinet.
First, disconnect
the green ground wire at the left-front corner of
base of unit by removing retaining screw (save
screw for reuse in step 14). Now slide unit out
of cabinet by pulling out on handle at base of
unit.
5. Attach seal strips to cabinet.
Place
3/a"-wide self-adhesive
seal strip on window
side of bottom flange. Now, starting at the
lower corner of the cabinet, apply 3/8"-wide
seal strips over the center line of the pre-
drilled holes for one of the side mounting
angles, over the center line of pre-drilled holes
for the top mounting channel, and over the
center line of pre-drilled holes for the other
side mounting angle.
