3. Setup and Installation
Proper installation is crucial for the efficient operation of your portable air conditioner. This unit is designed for easy setup without requiring a permanent outdoor unit.

Installation Steps:
- Unpack the Unit: Carefully remove the air conditioner and all accessories from the packaging.

- Assemble the Window Kit: The window kit consists of adjustable panels. Slide the panels to fit your window opening and secure them with the provided screws.
- Attach the Exhaust Hose: Connect one end of the flexible exhaust hose to the air conditioner's exhaust port and the other end to the window kit adapter. Ensure a secure fit to prevent air leakage.
- Seal the Window: Use the foam seal provided to seal any gaps around the window kit to maximize efficiency.
- Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded 115V (AC) electrical outlet.
