Installation; How To Install - Kenmore 580.72124 Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION
Pick a location which will allow you to blow the cold air
into the area you want. Windows used for installation
must be strong enough to support the weight of the air
conditioner. Good installation with special attention to
the proper position of the unit will lessen the chance
that service will be needed.
When cooling more than one room, installationlocation
is very important. If air conditioner is blocked by a storm
window frame, see step 19 on page 8 before beginning
to install. To cool a room, cold air must be blown from
the air conditioner in a straight path into the room.
HOW TO INSTALL

both sides and at the back. Save side screws.
Discard back screws.
B Slide the unit out of the cabinet by gripping the
base pan handle with one hand, and pulling it
forward while bracing the cabinet with your other
hand.
