5. FILLER PANEL INSTALLATION
Installing the Window Filler Panels
1, Measure distance "X" between the face of the window stop molding and the side of the cabinet
(fig. 10).
Note: Measure both sides of unit separately.
2, Subtract one groove (3/16") from "X" measurement to obtain the required width. Using a sharp
knife, score the groove until the fi]]er panel becomes weak enough to break apart (fig. 11).
3, Insert cut edge of the fi]]er panel into the cabinet side sea] groove (position 1 ). Leave a sma]] space
at the bottom of the cabinet side sea] groove (fig. 12).
Rotate the fi]]er panel backward toward the window frame until the fi]]er panel clears the window
sill. Push the filler panel down against the window si]] (position 2) (fig. 13).
Slide the filler panel out from the air conditioner cabinet until the filler panel flange contacts the
window stop molding (position 3) (Fig. 13).
4, Attach the filler panel to the face of the window stop molding by driving upholsterers' tacks through
the holes in the filler panel flange (Fig. 14).
5, Pull the sliders out until the sliders contact the face of the window stop molding (Fig.15).
6, Pull bottom window sash down tightly and lock it in place by installing a 5/8" long screw through
the hole in the slider into the window sash (Fig. 16).
7, Cut the plastic foam seal to proper length and insert it between the upper and the lower window
sash (Fig. 17).
