Before Installation the Air Conditioner

PREPARING FOR OPERA TION

Refer to the Installation Instructions Included In this manual before using the air conditioner.
Once the air conditioner has been properly assembled and Installed:

1. Plug the power cord into its own dedicated properly grounded outlet. Do not plug other appliances into the same outlet.
Doing so could overload the outlet and create a fire hazard.
2. Make sure the air conditioner and cord are positioned where they do not create a tripping hazard and will receive adequate ventilation. Do not place the appliance near furniture or objects that could block the vent openings.
3. Make sure that any items that could be blown over or damaged by the airflow from the fan are out of the airflow path.

UNPACKING THE AIR CONDITIONER

Remove and store packing materials for reuse. Remove any shipping tape before using the air conditioner. If the tape leaves behind any adhesive, rub a small amount of liquid dish soap onto it and wipe with a damp cloth. Do NOT use sharp instruments, alcohol, thinners, or abrasive cleaners to remove adhesive.
They could damage the finish.

Wireless Remote Control

Inserting Batteries

If the display screen of the remote control begins to fade, replace the batteries. Insert AAA (1.5 V) batteries before using the remote control.

1. Remove the cover on the back of the remote control.

2 Insert the new batteries and make sure that the + and - terminals of the batteries are installed correctly.

PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION

Contents of Installation Kit

Tools and Materials Needed

SELECTION OF INSTALLATION LOCATION

1. Place the unit on a level floor

2. For best performance, allow at least 20" of air space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation

3. Place the unit near a window. The hose and diffuser will be used to connect the air conditioner to the window installation kit to vent exhaust air outside.

WINDOW VENT PANELAND EXTENSIONS

The window installation kit allows you to install the air conditioner in most vertical-sliding windows 23” to 60” wide, or horizontal-sliding windows from 23” to 60” high

1. For window openings shorter than 23", trim panel A to fit the opening

2. For longer window openings, assemble and adjust the panels to fit the window opening. Use type J screws (included) to fix the panels together at the proper length.

1 Hard Foam Shims (For Some Installations)

To determine whether you need to install the hard foam shims, place the panel assembly in the bottom sash channel and slide it until it sits tightly against the exterior side of the channel. Close the sash until it holds the panel assembly in place. Align the vent hose with the panel opening. If the inside window frame interferes with the proper alignment of the vent hose, follow the instructions below to install the hard foam shims. Otherwise, continue to step 3.

To install hard foam shims: If any extension panels are used, attach foam seal(s) H to the bottom side of extension panel B or C to minimize gaps. Then attach the hard-foam shim(s) G along the bottom side of the window panel assembly to allow the vent hose to clear the window frame. (See image in step 3.)

2 Attaching Foam Weather Seals

Attach the foam weather seals D to the top and bottom sides of the panel assembly. Attach the short foam weather seals F to the right and left sides of the panel assembly.

See other models: LDC20778ST HT905TA 86UN85006LA DLEX2650V 43UT670H0UA
(Attaching the foam weather seals to the panel assembly rather than the window sash and frame makes for easier cleanup when removing the panel assembly.)
NOTE: Take care not to block drain holes in the exterior sill. If necessary, cut slots in the foam seal to allow any moisture to drain out the window sill drains.

3 Inserting Panel Assembly

Insert the panel assembly in the bottom sash channel as In step 2. Use care when installing the assembly, which will now fit very tightly in the opening. Close the sash tightly against the top of the panel assembly. For a tighter seal, use ‘no residue’ duct tape (not included) to seal any gaps around the installed panel assembly.
• If needed, install the included security bracket with a type K screw.

4 Sealing Gap between Sashes

Measure and cut the included non-adhesive foam E to fit the window opening. Stuff it between the window sashes to prevent air and insects from getting into the room.
Tip: For a tighter seal, use “no residue” duct tape to seal the gap between the sashes.

5 Connecting Vent Hose

Align the tabs on the diffuser end of the vent hose to the slots in the panel assembly opening. Insert the diffuser and rotate it to lock it in place.
• If disconnected, reconnect the other end of the vent hose to the product by inserting the vent hose into the product with the mounting ring facing out. If the hose doesn’t snap into place, rotate it slightly so the 2 lines at the front align.

6 Positioning Vent Hose

For best results, keep the vent hose as short and straight as possible. However, shape the diffuser end of the vent hose into an inverted U shape just inside the window to allow any rain or condensation to drain out the window.
