2. Using the tab, pull up slightly on the filter to release it and pull it down or up. 3. Clean the filter with warm, soapy water below 40°C (104°F). 4. Rinse and gently shake the water from the filter and let it dry before replacing it. CAUTION: DO NOT operate the air conditioner without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance. Care and Maintenance TURN THE AIR CONDITIONER OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE POWER OUTLET. • Do not use rechargeable batteries. Such batteries differ from standard dry cells in shape, dimensions, and performance. • Remove the batteries from the remote controller if the air conditioner is not going to be used for an extended length of time. • Keep the remote control away from infants and small children to prevent them from accidentally swallowing the batteries. How to insert batteries 1. Remove the cover from the back of the remote controller. 2. Insert two AAA dry cell batteries. • Be sure that the (+) and (-) directions are correct. • Be sure that both batteries are new. 3. Re-attach the cover. 9 Features and Installation Learning parts name prior to installation will help you understand the installation procedure. Features Features CABINET FRONT GRILLE AIR FILTER AIR INTAKE (INLET GRILLE) AIR DISCHARGE HORIZONTAL AIR DEFLECTOR (VERTICAL LOUVER) VERTICAL AIR DEFLECTOR (HORIZONTAL LOUVER) EVAPORATOR POWER CORD BASE PAN CONDENSER COMPRESSOR BRACE CONTROL BOARD REMOTE CONTROLLER Installation Features and Installation About 1/2" Over 20" Heat Radiation Fence Awning INSIDE OUTSIDE Foam Cooled Air 30-60" Level 1/4 Bubble How to Install the Unit 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 30.5 cm(12") and there should be no obstacles, such as a fence or wall, within 50.8 cm(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. 4. Install the unit a little slanted so the back is slightly lower than the front (about 12.7 mm(1/2")). This will force condensed water to flow to the outside. 5. Install the unit with the bottom about 76.2~152.4 cm(30"~60") above the floor level. Window Requirements NOTE: All supporting parts should be secured to firm wood, masonry, or metal.
