CARE AND CLEANING

Outdoor coils

Turn the air conditioner off and remove the plug from
the wall outlet before cleaning.

The coils on the weather side of the air conditioner
should be checked regularly. If they are clogged with
dirt or soot they may be professionally steam cleaned,

Front grille

(Before first use, remove the tape that holds the front
grille to the case and the foam shipping block taped to
the back of the grille.)
To remove the grille: Remove the air filter. Remove
the screw that holds the grille in place. If this is the
first time the grille is being removed, the screw will
not be in place. It is packed in a separate plastic bag.

NOTE: Do not pull the bottom edge toward you more
than 3 inches or you may damage the tabs of the grille.

To replace the grille:

Air filter

The air filter behind the front grille should be checked
and cleaned at least every 30 days or more often if
necessary.

The filter can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to
remove light dust, or washed in warm soapy water.
Rinse and let the filter dry before replacing it. When
replacing, be sure the word FRONT is facing you.

DO NOT operate the air conditioner without a filter.
