Can you run a window air conditioner unit that was stored on its side?

Not right away. Theres oil in the compressor that will run out into the coils. The window unit needs to sit upright and have the oil run back into the compressor. A rule of thumb is for every hour on it side let the unit sit upright the same amount before running. This applys to window and common kitchen refrigerators.
The idea is to get most of the oil back where it belongs, lubricating the compressor. After a long storage period it's safest to wait at least 24 hrs before starting.
