Care and Cleaning
1. For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to
disconnect the power before cleaning.
2. Do not pour water on the indoor unit to clean it. This will damage the
internal components and cause an electric shock hazard.
Air intake and outlet side
(Indoor unit)
Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner
brush, or wipe them with a clean, soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with a mild liquid
detergent. When cleaning the air outlet side, be careful not to force the vanes
out of place.
1. Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor
unit. Do not wipe plastic parts using very hot water.
2. Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if
handled improperly; be especially careful when you clean these
parts.
3. The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must be
cleaned every year. Consult your dealer or service center.
Air filter
The air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and should be
cleaned at regular intervals as indicated in the table below or when the filter
indication ( ) on the display of the remote control unit (wired type) shows that
the filter needs cleaning. If the filter gets blocked, the efficiency of the air
conditioner drops greatly.

*Concealed duct type (NDLP, NDHP):
An air filter is not provided with this air conditioner at the time of shipment. To
get clean air and to extend the service life of the air conditioner, an air filter
must be installed in the air intake. For installation and cleaning the air filter,
consult your dealer or service center.
The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends on the
environment in which the unit is used.
How to clean the filter
1.
Remove the air filter from the air intake grille.
2.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If there is sticky dust on the
filter, wash the filter in lukewarm, soapy water, rinse it in clean water, and
dry it.
