How to clean the air filter
Your Friedrich room air conditioner is equipped with a Permafoam 
reusable air fi lter which is not affected by washing. The fi lter serves 
to remove dust, pollen, and other impurities from the air.
KEEP THE FILTER CLEAN - A clogged, dirty fi lter will reduce the 
operating effi ciency of your unit and contribute to frosting of the 
indoor coil. Be sure to check the fi lter every 7 to 10 days. The fi lter 
check procedure is easy, due to the unique design of the Friedrich 
DECORATIVE FRONT.
FILTER ACCESS -  Remove  the  INTAKE  GRILLE  from  the 
DECORATIVE FRONT frame by grasping it at the upper right and 
left side corners. Pull out until the GRILLE is released from the upper 
retaining snaps. Tilt down toward you, lift up and out of the bottom 
retaining snaps. This will expose the fi lter. Remove the fi lter by pulling 
it toward you. Wash the fi lter in hot, soapy water, rinse, squeeze lightly 
to remove excess water, shake dry - do not twist - and replace in the 
unit on the two support hangers. Replace the INTAKE GRILLE by 
positioning the bottom of the GRILLE into the bottom retaining snaps. 
Tilt the front up and away from you. Press in lightly on top and the 
GRILLE will position itself into the upper retaining snaps.
How to change airflow direction (Figure 6)
The DISCHARGE GRILLE is installed at the factory to provide 45˚ 
upward airfl ow into the room. (Direction 1 in Figure 6).  If a vertical 
airfl ow is desired (Direction 2), the direction can be changed by rotating 
the DISCHARGE GRILLE.  
Unplug the air conditioner.  
Remove the DISCHARGE GRILLE RETAINER attached with one 
screw in the right side of the grille.  
Remove the DISCHARGE GRILLE from the retaining slots near the 
CONTROLS, and rotate the grille as shown in Figure 6. 
Reinstall the DISCHARGE GRILLE by placing it in its retaining slots. 
Reattach the DIS CHARGE GRILLE RE TAIN ER with the retaining 
screw. The unit is now ready to operate.
How to cover inner weather panel holes
Two beige plugs are included in the plastic bag taped to the WallMaster 
chassis. These plugs may be used to cover the two holes left after 
removing the inner weather panel (see Figure 6).  The plugs must be 
attached before the DECORATIVE FRONT frame is installed.
Electrical requirements
IMPORTANT:  Before you begin the actual installation of your air 
conditioner, check local elec tri cal codes and the information below.
Your air conditioner must be connected to a power supply with the same 
AC voltage and hertz rating as marked on the nameplate located on 
the chassis. Only alternating current (AC) can be used. Consult pages 
3 and 7 for the correct type of receptacle for your model.
An overloaded circuit will invariably cause malfunction or failure of an 
Figure 5
air conditioner, therefore, it is extremely im por tant that the electrical 
power and the wiring is adequate. Consult your dealer or power 
company if in doubt.
CIRCUIT PROTECTION - Before installing or relocating your 
Friedrich Room Air Conditioner, check the amp rating of the circuit 
breaker or "TIME-DELAY" fuse. Refer to the nameplate located on 
the air conditioner chassis to de ter mine the correct fuse or circuit 
breaker am per age for your model.  The rating MUST NOT exceed 
the value stated on the nameplate.  If the air conditioner is connected 
to a circuit protected by a fuse, a "TIME-DELAY" fuse must be 
used due to the momentary high current demands when your air 
conditioner is started.
Never use an extension cord
Your Friedrich room air conditioner is equipped with a three-prong 
(grounded) plug for your protection against shock hazards and should 
be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. 
If you have a two-prong receptacle you will need to have the circuit 
replaced by a certifi ed electrician with a grounded circuit that meets 
all national and local codes and ordinances. Under no circumstances 
should you remove the ground prong from the plug. You must use the 
three-prong plug furnished with the air conditioner.
NEVER CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM 
THE PLUG.
