supply before cleaning or maintenance.

Warning
Only use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the unit clean. If the unit is especially dirty, you can
use a cloth soaked in warm water to wipe it clean.
• Do not use chemicals or chemically treated cloths to clean the unit.
• Do not use benzene, paint thinner, polishing powder or other solvents to clean the
unit. They can cause the plastic surface to crack or deform.
• Do not use water hotter than 40°C (104°F) to clean the front panel. This can cause
the panel to deform or become discolored.
4.2 Cleaning your air filter
A clogged air conditioner can reduce the cooling efficiency of your unit, and can also be bad for your
health. Make sure to clean the filter once every two weeks.
1. Lift the front panel of the indoor unit.
2. Grip the tab on the end of the filter, lift it up,then pull it towards yourself.
3. Now pull the filter out.
4. If your filter has a small air freshening filter, unclip it from the larger filter. Clean this air freshening
filter with a hand-held vacuum.
5. Clean the large air filter with warm, soapy water. Be sure to use a mild detergent.
6. Rinse the filter with fresh water, then shake off excess water.
7. Dry it in a cool, dry place, and refrain from exposing it to direct sunlight.
8. When dry, re-clip the air freshening filter to the larger filter, then slide it back into the indoor unit.
9. Close the front panel of the indoor unit.
