Removal Instructions

Remove basepan clip (Item 16). Remove chassis from
outer case following instructions under Step 2. Remove
window seal strip and sash bracket screw. Remove small
wood screws from side curtains and fold curtains toward
case. Remove outside supports from bottom of outer
case. Remove anchor screws from window sill. Because
window sash helps hold unit in window frame, carefully
raise window sash and lift case out of window frame.

NOTE
Abide by state and local codes when disposing of air
conditioning unit.

Step 10 – Recheck Installation
To be sure you have correctly installed your Amana
Room Air Conditioner, review all steps and ensure all
parts are securely fastened in window as instructions
show.

Tight seal is essential to efficient operation of unit.
Settling of your home may cause warping or bowing of
windows. To fill holes or cracks and ensure a tight seal,
use suitable plastic sealer available at hardware stores.

To begin operation, plug unit into electrical outlet as
recommended in Use & Care Manual.

Read Use & Care Manual thoroughly to become familiar
with operation of room air conditioner.

CAUTION

!

To avoid risk of personal injury or product damage
due to the weight of this device and sharp edges that

Have someone help install unit. Air conditioner
weighs between 80 and 150 pounds (depending
upon model). Use proper lifting and carrying
techniques to prevent injury or strain.

Make sure air conditioner does not fall during
installation or removal.
