Installation - Kenmore 580.75119 Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION
We strongly recommend the removal of the
old wall sleeve and the installation of a new
Kenmore folding 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
Kenmore 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.
NOTE: All wall sleeves used to mount the new Air
Conditioner must be in sound structural condition
and have a rear grille that securely attaches to
sleeve, or rear flange that serves as a stop for the
Air Conditioner,
_-'_ Remove old air conditioner from existing wall
sleeve.
_1 Clean the interior of an existing sleeve.
(Do not disturb seals.)
D Wall sleeve must be securely fastened in wall
before installing the air conditioner. Use the
nails or screws through sleeve into wall, if
needed. Repaint sleeve if needed.
_4J Prepare the wall sleeve for installation of the
unit. If you plan to use your existing wall sleeve,
and it is not Kenmore, use procedure B or C
below.
