Window Installation Instructions
6 INSTALL THE CASE
IN THE WINDOW
Carefully slide the case into the window and
A
center the case. Lower the window behind
the top mounting rail. Pull the bottom of the
case forward so that the bottom mounting
rail is tight against the back of the window
stool. Mount the case to the window sill using
4 type E screws. Drill pilot holes, if necessary.

Stool
Make sure the bolts
B
and nuts are all of the
way in both the left
and right V-supports.
Position the V-supports
C
on the case bottom so that
they will be near the outside
wall. Attach a V-support to
each side of the bottom of
the case using type C
screws, 3 on each side.
Use a wood block (obtained
D
locally) between the leveling
bolts and the wall if the wall
is weak or if the weight of the
air conditioner falls between
the studs in the wall.
Adjust the leveling
E
bolts and nuts against
the outside wall so
that the case has a
slight tilt to the outside.
Tighten nuts with an
adjustable wrench. Use
a level; no more than a
1/2 bubble will be the correct case slant to the
outside.

CAUTION:
A
To prevent broken glass
or damage to windows,
on vinyl or other
similarly constructed
windows, attach the
support bracket to the
window side jam.
Drill pilot holes and
attach the support
brackets with two type
D screws, one on each
side.
Cut the foam top window gasket to the
B
window width.
Stuff the foam

between the
glass and the
window to
prevent air and
insects from
getting into the room.
NOTE: If the gasket supplied does not fit
your window, obtain appropriate material
locally to provide a proper installation seal.
