Care and Maintenance
Safety Precautions
• Contact an authorized service technician for repair or
maintenance. Improper repair and maintenance may
cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire, and may
void your warranty.
• Do not
substitute a blown fuse with a higher or lower
amperage rating fuse, as this may cause circuit damage
or an electrical fire.
• Make sure the drain hose is set up according to the
instructions. Failure to do so could cause leakage and
result in personal property damage, fire and electric
shock.
• Make sure that all wires are connected properly. Failure
to connect wires according to instructions can result in
electrical shock or fire.
Unit Maintenance
BEFORE CLEANING OR MAINTENANCE
• Always turn off your air conditioning system and
disconnect the power supply before cleaning or
maintenance.
• 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
wash the unit under running water. Doing so
creates an electrical hazard.
• Do not
use water hotter than 40ºC (104ºF) to clean
the front panel. This can cause the panel to become
deformed or discolored.
• Clean the unit using a damp, lint-free cloth and neutral
detergent. Dry the unit with a dry, lint-free cloth.
How To Clean The Air Filter
The filter prevents dust and other particles from entering
the indoor unit. Dust buildup can reduce the efficency of
the air conditioner. For optimum efficiency, clean the air
filter every two weeks or more frequently if you live in a
dusty area. Replace the filter with a new one if it's heavily
clogged and cannot be cleaned.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE OR CLEAN
THE FILTER BY YOURSELF
Removing and cleaning the filter can be dangerous.
Removal and maintenance must be performed by a certified
technician.
