Air cleaner filter replacement
- The clogged air cleaner reduces the amount of air intake and causes malfunction of the
engine.
Thus, the air cleaner should be replaced regularly. If the unit is installed in the area of heavy
dust or oil, replace the air cleaner in advance.
- The air cleaner should be replaced every 10,000 hours or 5 years. (whichever comes first)
- Use the authentic products from LG electronics for the air cleaner replacement.
- The air cleaner replacement proceeds as follows.
Refer to the table below when preparing the tools and part required for the replacement/mainte-
nance.
Air cleaner element replacement and cover maintenance
- Stop the engine by controlled shutdown before the maintenance. (refer to 'Operation restriction
of the outdoor unit prior to maintenance' in the 'Self-diagnosis')
- Remove the right side panel on the bottom front of the outdoor unit.
- Loosen the clamps(3 spots) of the air cleaner cover and check for the Vacuator valve V/V located
at the end of the cover.
Replace the valve if damaged.

What is a Vacuator valve? It is a device to automatically discharge any dust particles inside
the air cleaner.
- Replace the used filter element with a new one. (Figure2, Figure3)
- Wipe off the dust insider the air cleaner before replacing.
- Put the cover back together and tighten the clamp. When installing the cover, always keep the
Vacuator valve facing downward. (Figure 4)
CAUTION
• In order to cool down completely, stop the unit 1~2 hours prior to maintenance/replace-
ment. If you touch a heated area of the outdoor unit parts which was in operation, it may
cause burns.
• Make sure to shut off the power breaker of the outdoor control panel when performing
internal work on the outdoor unit. If the indoor unit is operated by the customer’s remote
control during internal work, it may cause injury or equipment damage.
• Use authentic products from LG electronics for the parts replacement.
Use of inauthentic parts or oil can cause malfunction of the unit and the customer will be
responsible for any damages involved.
