CLEANING THE HONEYCOMB COOLING MEDIA
The appliance is supplied with a Honeycomb Cooling Media.
The Honeycomb Cooling Media is located inside the Rear Grill. See Figure 1 for instructions on
how to remove them from the unit for cleaning and maintenance.
Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank. You must empty the water tank
and refill with fresh water, especially if the tank has not been cleaned in a long time.
The cleaning frequency for the Honeycomb media depends on local air and water conditions.
In areas where the mineral content of water is high, mineral deposits may build up on the
Honeycomb Cooling Media and restrict air flow. Draining the water tank and refilling with fresh
water at least once a week will help reduce mineral deposits. If mineral deposits remain on the
Honeycomb Cooling Media, the media should be removed and washed under fresh water. The
media should be cleaned every two months or sooner, depending on your needs.
For best results allow the Honeycomb Cooling Media to dry after each use by turning off the cool
function 15 minutes before turning the unit off.
