on each side of the chassis to ensure a proper seal be-
tween the chassis and the wall sleeve. The screws are
supplied in a plastic bag which is attached to the power
cord.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. The unit is equipped with a rubber grommet mounted com-
pressor. These grommets are factory set and require no
adjustment.
2. If a standard subbase is used, be sure the right hand sub-
base cover is removed before the chassis is installed in
the sleeve.
3. Check the indoor and outdoor grilles for obstructions to air
flow. The unit must be located where curtains, furniture,
trees, shrubs or other objects do not block the air flow to
and from the unit. If air is obstructed and/or deflected back
into the unit, the air conditioner's compressor may cycle
on and off rapidly. This could damage the compressor and
void the warranty.
