Please:

l Install your air conditioner in a window that

will hold the weight, and secure the air

conditioner according to the Installation

Instructions.

l Connect the air conditioner to the proper

kind of outlet with the correct electrical

supply and grounding. (See the Installation

Instructions.)

l Make sure the air conditioner is the correct

size for the area you want to cool.

l Use the air conditioner only to do what a

window air conditioner is designed to do.

l Make sure the air conditioner is not used

by anyone unable to operate it properly.

l Maintain the air conditioner properly.

Also, remove the Energy Label. Use a damp

Operating Your Air

Conditioner

In order to obtain the best possible results from your air conditioner, it is important that you

operate it properly. This section will tell you how to do just that.

Starting your air conditioner

Fire Hazard

Do not use an extension cord.

Doing so can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.

NOTE: Make sure air conditioner System

Control is set to Unit Off before plugging in

the unit.

1. Set the Exhaust Control to Closed for

best cooling results.

2. Set the System Control to the

desired setting.

LO COOL ...........for sleeping comfort

MED COOL ..........for normal cooling

HI COOL ..........for maximum cooling

FAN ONLY ......for air circulation only

3. Turn the Thermostat Control to the mid

(number 6) setting. You can adjust the air

conditioner’s cooling performance by

resetting the Thermostat Control to a

higher number for maximum cooling.

Lower the thermostat for less cooling.

You will need to experiment to find the

setting which suits you best.

When lowering the Thermostat Control

setting, the compressor (motor) may

shut off.

NOTE: When the compressor is turned off

with either the system control or the thermo-

stat control, wait at least two minutes before

restarting the air conditioner or turning the

compressor back on.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death or electrical shock.

Using the Exhaust Control

The Exhaust Control draws stale or smoky

air from the room or circulates existing

room air.

NOTE: Make sure the Exhaust Control is

returned to the Closed setting when cooling

or room air circulation is desired. Energy

efficiency is decreased when operating in

exhaust and cooling at the same time.

To exhaust room air:

1. Set Exhaust Control to Open.

2. If cooling is desired, set System Control

to desired Cool setting.

3. If cooling is not required, set System

Control to Fan Only.

To circulate room air:

1. Set Exhaust Control to Closed.

2. If cooling is desired, set System Control

to desired Cool setting.

3. If cooling is not required, set System

Control to Fan Only.

Changing air direction

The louvers, in the top grille area of the air Tab

conditioner, control the direction of the --

cooled air. Move the tabs, at the top of the

grille, in the direction you want the air to go

if=--

(right, left, or straight ahead).

Caring for Your Air

Conditioner

Proper maintenance of your air conditioner will help ensure longer life and lower operating

costs. This section will tell you how to clean your air conditioner and perform annual mainte-

nance. You can always call your authorized Whirlpool service dealer for an annual checkup.

Cleaning the front panel and air filter

Explosion Hazard

Unplug power cord from outlet before cleaning air

conditioner.

Use only nonflammable cleaners.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

explosion, fire, or electrical shock.

1. Remove the front panel from air condi-

tioner for cleaning. Press down at top

edge of front panel to release it from

the cabinet.

Tabs

2. Pull the top of the front panel toward you.

3. Lift up and away from the bottom

spring clips.

4. Remove filter from the front panel by

removing the elastic band which holds it

in place.

5. Clean filter by using a vacuum cleaner.

If very dirty, wash filter with warm water

and a mild detergent. Air dry thoroughly

before replacing. Do not use a hot

air dryer.

6. Clean front panel using a soft cloth with

warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse

and dry.

7. Replace filter and hold it with elastic band.

8. Wipe control panel clean with a soft

dry cloth.

9. Replace front panel. Locate bottom of

panel on the spring clips. Press down on

top edge of the front panel and push front

toward air conditioner to secure

upper tabs.

Performing annual maintenance

Your air conditioner needs annual mainte-

nance to help ensure steady, top performance

throughout the year.

Call the service company recommended

by your dealer to:

l Inspect and clean the coils and conden-

, sate water passages.

l Check fan.

The compressor and fan motor are sealed

and need no oiling. The expense of an

annual inspection is the customer’s

responsibility.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Unplug power cord from outlet before

servicing.

If you are familiar with electrical appliances,

you can do the cleaning and maintenance

yourself. If you choose to do so, follow

these steps:

Be sure no liquid gets into the motor,

electrical control box, or compressor

terminals.

NOTE: Do not lift, push, or pull any white

beaded foam (expanded polystyrene) parts.

1. Unplug the power cord.

2. Remove air conditioner from window.

3. Remove the front panel. (See “Cleaning

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death, electrical shock,

or serious injury.

the front panel and air filter” on page 7.) Excessive Weight Hazard

Use 2 or more people to move and

install air conditioner.

Failure to do so can result in back or

other injury.

4. Remove the side curtains. Slide curtains

out to their fullest width. From the back

side, remove the Phillips-head screws

which attach the curtains to the cabinet.

(See A in illustration.)

5. Remove the slotted, hex-head screws

holding the top channel. (See B in

illustration.)

6. Remove slotted, hex-head screws on

sides of cabinet. (See C in illustration.)

7. Holding the cabinet on both sides, care-

fully lift cabinet off base. Watch out for

the sharp metal fins on the front and

rear coils.

8. Wrap the motor, electrical control box,

and compressor terminal box in plastic

film to make sure no water or other

liquids get inside. Water or other liquids

could damage the insulation and cause

serious mechanical problems.

9. Clean and hose out the base, coils, and

condensate pans. Clean air conditioner

at least once a year or more often if the

condenser coils and pans collect dirt,

sand, leaves, insects, or algae. Also,

clean the air conditioner if you detect an

odor coming from it.

10. Remove plastic film from the motor and

electrical parts.

11. Replace air conditioner in cabinet.

12. Replace the front panel.

NOTE: It is a good idea to wait 24 hours

before starting the air conditioner again.

Doing so allows time for all areas to

dry thoroughly.

The water from rainfall or from normal

operation does not harm the motor or

electrical parts.

Saving energy

You can help save energy by following the

tips below.

l Improve your home’s insulation. Seal all

doors and windows. Close the fireplace flue.

l Close all blinds and drapes on sunny sides

of the house. Add window awnings.

l Keep the air filter clean.

l Do not block the airflow with drapes

or furniture.

l Ventilate the attic. High temperatures in

the attic add to the air conditioner’s

cooling load.

l Try not to use heat-producing appliances

during the hottest part of the day.

l Turn off lights and appliances when they

are not needed.

l Keep heat registers and cool-air

returns closed.

l Use exhaust venting fans when cooking,

doing laundry, or bathing.

Is the System Control set too low?

Is the Thermostat Control set too low?

Normal operating sounds

When your air conditioner operates normally,

you will hear sounds such as:

the condenser. Water droplets help cool

the condenser.
