CLEANING AND CARE
●
Before cleaning the air conditioner, be sure to turn it off and disconnect the Power Supply Cord.
●
Be sure the Intake Grille (Fig. 1 a8) is installed securely.
●
When removing and replacing the air fi lters, be sure not to touch the heat exchanger, as personal
injury may result.
Cleaning the Air Filter
1. Open the Intake Grille, and remove the
air fi lter.
Lift up the air fi lter’s handle, disconnect the two lower tabs,
and pull out.
2. Remove dust with a vacuum cleaner or
by washing.
After washing, allow to dry thoroughly in a shaded place.
3. Replace the Air Filter and close the Intake
Grille.
1
Align the sides of the air fi lter with the panel, and push
in fully, making sure the two lower tabs are returned
properly to their holes in the panel.
2
Close the Intake Grille.
(For purposes of example, the illustration shows the unit with-
out Intake Grille installed.)
●
Dust can be cleaned from the air fi lter either with a vacuum
cleaner, or by washing the fi lter in a solution of mild deter-
gent and warm water. If you wash the fi lter, be sure to allow
it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before reinstalling.
●
If dirt is allowed to accumulate on the air fi lter, air fl ow will
be reduced, lowering operating efficiency and increasing
noise.
●
During periods of normal use, the Air Filters should be
cleaned every two weeks.
●
When used for extended periods, the unit may accumulate dirt inside, reducing its performance. We recommend that the unit
be inspected regularly, in addition to your own cleaning and care. For more information, consult authorized service personnel.
●
When cleaning the unit’s body, do not use water hotter than 104°F, harsh abrasive cleansers, or volatile agents like benzene or
thinner.
●
Do not expose the unit body to liquid insecticides or hairsprays.
●
When shutting down the unit for one month or more, fi rst allow the fan mode to operate continuously for about one-half day to
allow internal parts to dry thoroughly.
