INSTALLATION
CAUTION
We strongly
recommend
the removal of the
old wall sleeve and the installation
of a new
LGE Wall Sleeve,
If you decide to keep the existing wall sleeve,
you have to redirect the louvers at the back of
the wall
sleeve illustration. The use of pliers is
recommended.
If you DO NOT redirect, you run
the risk of poor performance
or product failure.
This is not covered
under the terms of the
LGE
warranty.
• Pick a location
which will allow the conditioned
air
to blow into the area you want. Good installation
with special attention to the proper position
of the
unit will lessen the chance that service will be
needed.
