SECURE
THE
DRAIN
PIPE
Drain
pipe
Drain
cap
In
humid
weather,
excess
water
may
cause
the
BASE
PAN
to
overflow.

and
secure
the
DRAIN
PIPE
to
the
rear

AIR
FILTER
CLEANING
The
air
filter
should
be
checked
at
least
twice
a
month
to
see
if
cleaning
is
necessary.
Trapped
particles
in
the
filter
will
build
up
and
block
the
airflow.
This
reduces
the
cooling
capacity
and
also
causes
an
accumulation
of
frost
on
the
cooling
coils.
1.
Open
the
inlet
grille
upward
by
pulling
out
the
bottom
of
the
inlet

the
filter
using
lukewarm
water
below
40°C(104°F).
4.
Gently
shake
the
excess
water
from
the
filter
completely.
Replace
the
filter.
HOW
TO USE
THE
REVERSIBLE
INLET
GRILLE

INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
SELECT
THE
BEST
LOCATION
1.
To
prevent
vibration
and
noise,
make
sure
the
unit
is
installed
securely
and
firmly
2.
Install
the
unit
where
the
sunlight
does
not
shine
directly
on
the
unit.
3.
The
outside
of
the
cabinet
must
extend
outward
for
at
least
12"
and
there
should
be
no
obstacles,
such
as
a
fence
or
wall,
within
20"
from
the
back
of
the
cabinet
because
it
will
prevent
heat
radiation
of
the
condenser.
Restriction
of
outside
air
will
greatly
reduce
the
cooling
efficiency
of
the
air
conditioner.
CAUTION:
All
side
louvers
of
the
cabinet
must
remain
exposed
to
the
outside
of
the
structure.

2.
Install
the
unit
a
little
slanted
