3.2 INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Installing the FRIEDRICH USC sleeve ensures
optional performances of the unit.
If you decide to keep the existing wall sleeve, you have
to redirect the louvers at the back of the wall sleeve.
Refer to FIG. 23 on p15. The use of pliers is
recommended. If you DO NOT redirect, you run the risk
of poor performance or premature product failure. This
is not covered under the terms of the FRIEDRICH
warranty.
• Pick a location which will allow the conditioned air to blow
into the area you want. Good installation with special
attention to the proper position of the unit will lessen the
chance that service will be needed.
