Installation
3. INSTALL THE ACCORDION PANELS
NOTE:
The top rail and sliding panels on each side are
there to provide the proper pitch to the rear
of (5/16") this unit. This is necessary for proper
condensed water utilization and drainage. If you are
not using the side panels for any reason, this pitch
to the rear should also be maintained.
1. Place the unit on a solid surface. Hold the
Accordion Panel in one hand and gently pull
the center back to free the open end.
2. Slide the free end “I” section of the panel
directly into the cabinet, then slide the panel
down. Be sure to leave enough space to slip
the top and bottom of the frame into the rails
on the cabinet.
3. Once the panel has been installed to the side
of the cabinet, slightly adjust it to make sure
it sits securely inside the frame channel. Slide
the top and bottom ends of the frame into the
top and bottom rails of the cabinet.
4. Slide the panel all the way in and repeat these
steps to assemble the other side.
4. SECURE THE ACCORDION PANELS
Keep a firm grip on the air conditioner, then
carefully place the unit into the window opening so
the bottom of the air conditioner frame is against
the window sill. Carefully close the window behind
the top rail of the unit.
