STEP 1
Plug the wires into the labeled ports at the bottom of your CoolBot.
Make sure you plug the wires in their corresponding ports according to the
description in the KNOWING YOUR COOLBOT Section (Page 3).
Plug the wires in and out a couple times as sometimes they don't "seat" all the
way the first time.
STEP 2
Mount the CoolBot on the wall next to the control panel side of the A/C to make
it easier to connect the wires.
CAUTION! Make sure the wall fasteners are smaller in diameter than the hole
in the CoolBot tabs or you will break the plastic tabs.
STEP 3
Remove the air filters from the front of the A/C unit. The filters drastically
reduce cooling power. Clean your fins 2 times a month. See DIRTY FINS in
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (Page 15).
Remove the plastic grill if you can.
Some A/C units have a "fresh air vent" tab. This allows some mix of outside air
inside the room. If applicable, make sure it is closed.
STEP 4
Find and free your A/C's Temperature Sensor. It's the only thing attached to
the front fins/grill of your air conditioner. On Mini Split units this sensor is often
not in front of the fins of the indoor unit. It may be tucked into a plastic cover
underneath or to the side of the unit. For pictures and examples of Mini Split
installations please visit:
If your A/C has a clip built into the sensor to hold the sensor in the fins, remove
the sensor from the clip and free it enough to reach the side of the A/C.
STEP 5
Using ONLY a 2" square piece of Aluminum foil, place the CoolBot HEATER
Cable (red tip) next to the A/C's Temperature Sensor (from step 4). Keep
together next to each other, pointing in the same direction, and wrap them
tightly with the foil (FIG 2-page 8).
Make sure they are away from the fins & flow of the air and hang free, not
touching anything cold or metal. You can put a wire tie or zip tie around the 2
wires (1 inch before the foil) to keep the wires from getting pulled apart.
