    Apply the gasket kit to the rear of the air conditioner to ensure a proper seal before mounting.

  4. Mount the air conditioner

    Secure the air conditioner to the enclosure using the provided mounting bolts and washers. Start bolts by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with a wrench.

  5. Connect the power supply

    Refer to the nameplate for electrical requirements and connect the power cord to a properly grounded power supply. Ensure the circuit is fused with a slow blow or HACR circuit breaker.

  6. Test the air conditioner

    Before finalizing the installation, power on the unit and allow it to run for 5 to 10 minutes. Check for excessive noise or vibration and ensure the compressor and blowers are operating correctly.

  7. Adjust the temperature controller

    If necessary, adjust the Level I temperature controller located inside the air conditioner by turning the adjustment screw to set the desired temperature.

  8. Finalize installation

    Close the front panel of the air conditioner and secure it with the front panel screw. Restore power to the unit for operation.
