ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Before using your air conditioner, you will need to install the exhaust hose
so that the heat from the appliance is released into an open area.
To install the exhaust hose, feed the end of the hose through any available
window and secure it into place using the included adapter. Ensure the
distance between the unit and the window is at least 20 inches (50cm).
To seal the gap around the adapter, you may utilize the extendable slides
(supplied along with the appliance) as below:
USING THE EXTENDABLE SLIDES
- Place the extendable slides in the window gap and adjust the length as you need.
- Feed exhaust hose through the slide and the window so that the spacer is held securely. This technique may also be used for sash windows.
Note: Take care to maintain protection against intruders
MOUNTING OF THE EXHAUST PIPE
- Use only the hose provided and clip the exhaust hose to the back of the air conditioner.
- Avoid kinks and bends in the exhaust hose as this will cause expelled moist air to build up causing the unit to overheat and shut down. Fig 5 & 6 show correct position.
- The hose may be extended from 12 inches to 60 inches but for maximum efficiency use the shortest length possible.
WARNING!
The length of the exhaust pipe is specially designed according to the
specification of this product. Do not replace or extend with different off-
branded parts as this could cause the unit to malfunction and void the
manufacturer’s warranty.
