Air conditioner maintenance
Cleaning unit coil:
It is recommended to clean the coil at least at the beginning of each
cooling season or when necessary; turn the unit off first.
• Use a vacuum cleaner or a long-bristle brush to avoid damage to
the coil fins.
• Watch the fin edges to avoid injury.
• Damage to the fins may cause reduced coil efficiency resulting in
increased running costs. Use of flames, liquid or aerosol solvents
must be avoided. Use of these substances will cause serious
damage to the panels and electric parts.
