Continued

Electrical Shock, Product Damage and

Personal Injury Hazard

l

Unplug power cord from receptacle before

performing any maintenance. De sure no

liquid gets into the motor, electrical control

box or compressor electrical terminals.

l

Do not lift, push or pull any white beaded

foam (expanded polystyrene) parts.

l

Because your air conditioner weighs from

110 to 200 pounds, it is recommended that

you have someone help you when you

remove and re-install your unit and that

you both use proper lifting techniques.

l

Handle the air conditioner with care. Watch

out for the sharp metal fins on the front

and rear condenser coils.

l

Do not use the collected water for drinking

purposes. lt is not sanftary.

Failure to follow the above precautions

could result in electrical shock, product

damage or personal injury.

1. Unplug power cord.

2 Remove front panel. (See page 5 for

instructions.)

3. Slide unit out of cabinet by using the handle in

the center of the base flange.

4. Wrap the motor, connector plug, electrical

control box and compressor terminal box in

plastic film and make sure no water or other

liquid gets inside any of these parts. It could

damage the insulation and cause serious

mechanical problems.

5. Carefully clean and hose out the base, con-

denser coils and condensate pans. Clean at

least once a year-or more often if the con-

denser coil and pan collects dirt, sand, leaves,

insects or algae. Also, clean if you detect an

odor coming from the air condiiioner.

6. Remove plastic film from motor and electrical

parts.

7. Replace unit in cabinet.

6. Replace front panel.

9. Plug in power cord.

NOTE: ft is a good idea to wait 24 hours before

starting the unit again. This allows for all areas to

dry out. The water from rainfall or from normal

operation does not harm these components.
