ENERGY EFFICIENCY TIPS

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER

If the filter is clogged with dust, the amount of air flow will
be reduced, resulting in poor cooling performance. The
filter should be cleaned every10 days. At the beginning
of every cooling season or after a long period of
inactivity, clean the filter before starting the unit.

REMOVE THE FILTER

Gently pull the filter handle to the right and  slide the
filter out from the unit.

CLEAN THE FILTER

To remove dust from the filter, use a vacuum cleaner
or wash it in clean water.
If the filter is very dirty, wash it with detergent and
rinse carefully with  clean  water.  Dry  the filter with
a soft cloth.
Do not  expose  the filter to heat or dry it in direct
sunlight.

RE-INSTALL THE FILTER

Align the filter behind the front panel.
Grasp the filter handle and gently push the filter back
into place.
Never  operate the unit without installing  the filter. It
may  result  in  serious damage to  the unit.

CLEANING OF THE FRONT PANEL AND CABINET

To clean the front panel and cabinet, wipe with a soft, dry cloth or with a cloth  moistened with a
mild soap. Rinse carefully by wiping with a damp cloth and dry completely.
Avoid splashing the unit with water. Excess water can damage electrical insulation and result in
danger.
Never use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on any part of the unit.  To avoid  damage to the
unit, do not use hot water (120

°

F(50

°

C) or more) when cleaning.

OILING OF THE COMPRESSOR AND FAN MOTOR IS
UNNECESSARY

The compressor is permanently lubricated and is hermetically sealed. The fan motor is lifetime
sealed and does not require oiling.
