Care and cleaning
Clean your air conditioner occasionally to keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug
the unit before cleaning to prevent shock or fire hazards.
Air Filter Cleaning
The air filter should be checked at
least once a month to see if cleaning
is necessary. Trapped particles in the
filter can build up and cause an
accumulation of frost on the cooling
coils.
For 5000 Btu/h models:
1. Remove filter by sliding out from
the right side.
2. Wash the filter using liquid
dishwashing detergent and warm
water. Rinse filter thoroughly.
Gently shake excess water from
the filter. Be sure filter is
thoroughly dry before replacing.
3. Or instead of washing, you may
vacuum the filter clean.
For 8000 or 12000 Btu/h models:
1. Push the vent handle to the Vent
Closed position (where
applicable).
2. Open the front panel.
3. Grasp the filter by the center and
pull up and out.
4. Wash the filter using liquid
dishwashing detergent and warm
water. Rinse filter thoroughly.
Gently shake excess water from
the filter. Be sure filter is
thoroughly dry before replacing.
5. Or instead of washing, you may
vacuum the filter clean.
Cabinet Cleaning
1. Be sure to unplug the air
conditioner to prevent shock or
fire hazard. The cabinet and front
may be dusted with an oil-free
cloth or washed with a cloth
dampened in a solution of warm
water and mild liquid dishwashing
detergent. Rinse thoroughly and
wipe dry.
2. Never use harsh cleaners, wax or
polish on the cabinet front.
3. Be sure to wring excess water
from the cloth before wiping
around the controls. Excess water
in or around the controls may
cause damage to the air
conditioner.
4. Plug in air conditioner.
Winter Storage
If you plan to store the air conditioner
during the winter, remove it carefully
from the window according to the
installation instructions. Cover it with
plastic or return it to the original
carton.
