• Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when
removing the filter. Injuries can occur when
handling sharp metal edges.

conditioner. Exposure to water can destroy the
insulation, leading to possible electric shock.
• When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the
power and circuit breaker are turned off.
• Do not wash air filter with hot water at a
temperature greater than 104ºF (40ºC). Shake off
moisture and allow it to dry completely. Do not
expose the filter to direct sunlight. Doing so may
result in shrinking of the filter.
