Rememberthat bigger is not always better! An oversized air conditioner is less effective, wastes energy and does not provide better cooling. When installing your new unit, be sure to follow the instructions in the manual and use the included insulation materials. An improperly installed room AC leaks as much as a 6 sq. in. hole! For maximum savings, set the AC thermostat as high as is comfortable.
Consider purchasing a room air conditioner with variable speed compressor technology. In a conventional room air conditioner, the compressor works either at maximum capacity when the room thermostat calls for cooling or off when the desired temperature has been achieved, typically alternating frequently between full on and off. Room air conditioners with efficient variable speed compressors can vary the speed of the internal compressor motor in order to continuously control the temperature. As a result, the capability for efficient variable output allows a room air conditioner to quietly regulate the temperature and save a significant amount of energy during operation.
Room air conditioner sizing is all about matching the room size to the air conditioner size. A unit that is too big will be less effective and offer reduced air conditioner efficiency. Air conditioners remove both heat and humidity from the air. If the unit is too large, it will cool the room before it has a chance to remove the humidity. The result will be a room that's not very comfortable because cool moist air will make the room feel damp and clammy.
Using the cooling capacity chart, find your room's square footage in the "Area To be Cooled (square feet)" column, then use the "Capacity Needed (BTUs per hour)" column to choose the correct cooling capacity for your room air conditioner. The capacities are calculated based on an 8-foot ceiling. If you have higher ceilings, you may want to select a room air conditioner with a higher CADR. Cooling capacity is shown in British thermal units (BTUs) per hour.

NOTE All the pictures in this manual are for illustrative purposes only. The actual shape of the air conditioner you purchased may be slightly different, but its operations and fuctions are similar.
NOTE The cool circuit has an automatic 3 minutes time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping.
Before you begin, thoroughly familiarize yourself with the control panel as shown below and all its functions, then follow the symbol for the functions you desire. The unit can be controlled by the unit control panel alone or with the remote controller.
Lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a clear vertical opening (H) of following size (see Table 1). Side louvers and the rear of the AC must have clear air space to allow enough airflow through the condenser, for heat removal. The rear of the unit must be outdoors, not inside a building or garage.
1. Place unit on floor, a bench or a table. There is a left and right side filler panel; be sure to use the proper panel for each side. When installed, the flange for securing the panel in place to the window sill will be facing into the room.
C. Once the panel has been installed on the side of the cabinet, make sure it sits securely inside the frame channel by making slight adjustments. Slide the top and bottom ends of the frame into the top and bottom rails of the cabinet. Fig. 3.
2. While keeping a firm grip on the air conditioner, carefully place the unit into the window opening so the bottom of the air conditioner frame is against the window sill (Fig. 4). Carefully close the window behind the top rail of the unit.
NOTE Check that air conditioner is tilted back about H (Fig. 5) (tilted about 3 to 4 downward to the outside). After propor installation, condensate should not drain from the overflow drain hole during normal use, correct the slope otherside.
