WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
1
These instructions are for a standard
double-hung window. You will need to modify
them for other types of windows.
CAUTION:
bolts do not contact the window sill, or
if you have a window without a sill, you
must order accessory kit RAK87 to
properly install this air conditioner.
Call 800.626.2002 or visit GEAppliances.com.
The air conditioner can be installed without
the accordion panels if needed to fit in a
narrow window. See the window opening
dimensions.
All supporting parts must be secured
to firm wood, masonry or metal.
The electrical outlet must be within reach of
the power cord.
(With accordion panels)
STORM WINDOW REQUIREMENTS
2
A storm window frame will not allow the air
conditioner to tilt toward the outside, and will keep
it from draining properly. To adjust for this, attach
a piece of wood to the sill.
WOOD PIECES –
WIDTH: 2
LENGTH: Long enough to fit inside the window
frame.
THICKNESS: To determine the thickness, place a
piece of wood on the sill to make it 1/2 higher
than the top of the storm window frame or the
vinyl frame.
Attach securely with nails or screws provided
by the installer.
