WARNING

Following the safety messages is very important. These messages can save you from being injured or killed. Warning symbols alert you to be careful and mean Danger. Always follow instructions to be safe and reduce chances of injury or death. Warning and Danger signs will precede safety messages.

Electrical Safety

Grounding: This room air conditioner must be grounded. Grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. The power cord has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. Plug it into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

WARNING: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Call a qualified electrician if you don't understand the grounding instructions or if you are not sure if the air conditioner is properly grounded. If the wall outlet is not grounded, please contact an electrician to have it replaced with a properly grounded outlet.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

Adapter Plug: We strongly advise against using an adapter plug.

Tips

• This air conditioner is designed for use in a double-hung window.
• When installing the unit, be sure to tilt it 5 degrees outward so that water drips outside the house.
• Install the unit on the north side, as that is normally the shaded side. This will enhance the operation of your unit.

• The window must be strong enough for installation. Extra brackets and support may be required depending on your window. (Brackets and supports are not included in all models.)
• Measure the window before installing. If the window is too big for the unit, you may require professional installation.

• Use the correct electrical voltage and proper amperage for the unit to run effectively.

• Only let a certified electrician make any modifications to your electrical outlet.
• Use a dedicated line for the operation of your air conditioner to avoid the possibility of an electrical surge.

Energy Saving Guide

• When installing your air conditioner, make sure to seal all areas where there is a possibility of air leakage.
• Airflow should not be blocked inside by curtains, drapes, or furniture, or outside by shrubs or bushes.
• Do not needlessly use electrical lights or other appliances that produce heat.
• Keep the blinds and drapes drawn on all other windows.
• While cooking, use an exhaust fan in the kitchen to remove the excess heat produced.
• Always use the correct BTU size air conditioner to cool the room to attain optimum efficiency.

Operating Guide

Normal Operating Sounds

The following sounds are normally heard during the operation of an air conditioner.

• Thermostat clicks. As the thermostat cycles on/off you will hear this sound. Cool airflow movement as dictated by the set fan speed.
• Water sounds. This is normal since your air conditioner acts as a dehumidifier also. Thus you will hear water sounds from water drops falling on the condenser.
• As the refrigerant flows through the inner sealed tubing a rushing noise may be heard.
• Rattling or vibrating noises may be heard due to poor wall or window installation.
• High pitch compressor sound may be heard.

Installations

Before you install your air conditioner, check the following:

1) The unit is free of all obstructions inside and outside the room, e.g., drapes, curtains, furniture, plants, shrubs, bushes, trees, other structures like buildings, garages, etc. The air conditioner must have clear, unobstructed airflow through the condenser to remove the heat. 2) The window is strong enough to hold the weight of the air conditioner. Extra brackets or supports may be needed depending on your windows. (Brackets or supports are not provided in all models.) 3) The window sill and track are strong enough to hold the weight of the air conditioner. 4) The wall is strong enough to hold the unit. Extra brackets or supports may be needed depending on the wall. (Brackets or supports are not provided in all models.) 5) There is adequate and proper power supply near the air conditioner.

6) DO NOT use adapter plugs.

7) DO NOT use extension cords.

8) DO NOT cut or remove the ground prong.

9) DO NOT modify the plug or the electrical wall outlet in any way. If the plug does not fit the electrical outlet, have a certified electrician do the necessary change.

Installing Unit into A Window

Window Opening Requirements

The air conditioner is designed to fit into double or single hung sash type windows. Each of the units comes with an installation kit that provides adjustable mounting louvers, to fill the gaps between the sides of the unit, and the window frame. The chart below reflects the dimensions of the units with, and without installation kits. Measure your window opening width and compare it to the chart below to ensure that it meets the minimum and maximum window width requirements.

Model Dimension	ESAM055-C
A(inch)	5 3/25"
B(inch)	12 3/5"
C(inch)	13 2/5"
D(inch) Max	33 1/5"
D(inch) Min	22 1/2"
Case High	12 7/16"
Case Width	18 9/16"
Case Depth	13 3/8"

ASSEMBLE CURTAINS/TOPT RAIL

Install top rail with 3 short screws13/32".

Insert the side curtains into the top and bottom rails of the air conditioner. Fasten the curtains to the unit with 8 short screws 13/32".

Caution: Never expose plastic front or grille to extreme temperatures.

2 PREPARE WINDOW FOR INSTALLATION

1. This unit is designed for installation in standard double hung windows with actual opening 30" wide. The upper and lower sash must open sufficiently to allow a vertical opening of 14" from the bottom of the sash to the window stool.
2. If a storm window is present, install a wood strip (not included) (OUTER SILL) to the inner window sill across the full width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick enough to raise the height of the window sill so that the unit can be installed without interference by the storm window frame (STORM WINDOW FRAME) or wood strip mounted on (OUTDOORS) to help condensation to drain properly to the outside of the inner sill.
3. Install a second wood strip approximately 6" thick (same thickness as first strip) in the center of the outer sill and the back of the inner sill. This will raise the basepan angle.
4. If the distance between the storm window frame and the wood strip mounted on top of the inner sill is more than 1", the strips are not necessary.

3 LOCATING UNIT IN WINDOW

Place the unit in the center of the inner sill.

4 ATTACH BASEPAN ANGLE

Install the basepan angle behind the inner window sill, with the short side of the basepan angle as shown. Use the 2 short screws 13/32" provided. The basepan angle helps to hold the unit securely in place. Be sure to place the basepan angle edge flush against the back of the inner sill.

IN THE WINDOW

Carefully lift the air conditioner and slide it into the open window. Make sure the bottom guide of the air conditioner drops into the notches of the basepan angle. While steadying the air conditioner, carefully bring the window sash down behind the upper guide of the air conditioner.

INSTALL THE SEAL GASKET AND SASH LOCK

Extend the side curtains to fill the window opening using 4 wood screws 31/32" to secure them. Cut the seal gasket to the window width. Stuff the sash seal between the glass and the window to prevent air and insects from getting into the room. Fasten the basepan angle, using a short screw 13/32".

Care and Cleaning Guide

• Always unplug your air conditioner before cleaning.
• The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned at least once every 2 weeks or more often if necessary. To remove:
• Open the inlet grille downward by pulling out the top of the inlet grille.
• Remove the air filter from the front grille assembly by pulling the air filter up slightly.
• Clean the filter with warm, soapy water below 40°C (104°F).
• Rinse and gently shake the water from the filter and let it dry before replacing it. DO NOT use your air conditioner without the air filter in place.
• To clean the front panels or the cabinet DO NOT use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine, bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads.

Some of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your air conditioner.

• Always use a soft cloth dampened with water or mild soap and water solution to wipe the front of the cabinet.

Wipe dry with a soft cloth.

• To store your air conditioner, after the season, remove the unit from the window as per the installation guide. Repack the unit in its original box and store away. If you do not intend to remove it from the window, then cover the outside with a winter cover.

This can be purchased from the retailer where you purchased your air conditioner or from your local hardware store.

• Before putting away your unit, make sure any water left in the pan is removed and drained away. Water left in the pan could lead to rusting or damage to the electrical connections.

Troubleshooting

If the air conditioner does not operate:

• Check if the unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.
• Check if the unit is in "Off" mode.
• The fan control may be in the "Off" position.

Air from the air conditioner is warm:

• The A/C setting may need to be raised.
• The temperature outside the room is below 65°F. The compressor will not cycle on if the temperature outside is below 65°F.

Ice formation on cooling coils:

• Outside temperature too cold. Set the unit on fan only setting to defrost ice.
• Lower temperature setting. The temperature setting may be too cold.
• Unit BTU may be too high for the room.

Air conditioner working but room not cooling:

• Room may have appliances that produce heat. Use an exhaust fan to remove excess heat.
• Redirect the airflow. Remove any obstacles.
• All doors and windows need to be closed so cool air does not escape the room. Air filter may need cleaning.
• Unit BTU may be too low for the required cooling area.
• On extreme hot & humid days air conditioners may take a little longer to cool.

Air conditioner is making noise when cooling:

You may hear sounds of air movement, water, compressor clicking on and off or window vibrations. Please read Operating Guide - Normal

Operating Sounds. (see page 7)

Water in the air conditioner cabinet:

This is normal as your air conditioner not only cools but also dehumidifies the air. If there is water dripping inside the room, check the installation of the unit. The unit may need to be reinstalled. (see page 13)
