ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION (CONT.)
Accordion Panel Installation
Now that you have installed the top rail, you can now install the
accordion panels on each side.
1. Place the air conditioner on a hard, flat surface.
2. Locate the accordion panels in the box.
3. Gently pull the free end of the accordion panel (See FIG. 2).
Do this for both panels.
4. Slide the free end of the accordion panel into the side panel
of the air conditioner (See FIG. 3). Do this for each side.
5. Once the accordion panels are slid into place adjust the top
and bottom rails of the accordion panels into the top and
bottom rails of the air conditioner (See FIG.4).
Storm Window Requirements
A storm window frame will not allow the air conditioner to tilt
properly which in turn will keep it from draining properly. To adjust
for this, attach a board or piece of wood to the sill. The board or
wood piece should have a depth of at least 1 1/2". Make sure the
board or piece of wood is approximately 1/2" higher than the storm
window frame. This will allow the air conditioner to tilt enough for
proper drainage. (See FIG. 5).
Placing the Unit Inside a Window
1. Place the air conditioner on the sill with the bottom
mounting rail against its back edge. Center the air conditioner and
close the window securely behind the top mounting rail. The air
conditioner should be slightly tilted to the outside area. Use a level;
about a 1/3 bubble will be the correct case slant to the outside.
(See FIG. 6&FIG. 7) (We suggest to keep a downward angle to
allow accumulated rain water to drain out from back side of the unit
bottom.)
2. Once the air conditioner is placed, extend both the left and right
accordion panels to the width of the window.
