CLEANING THE CASE

with a dry cloth or towel.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
The air filter should be cleaned every two weeks; depending on indoor air quality, more
frequent cleaning may be needed. A dirty air filter will decrease airflow and reduce efficiency.
Do not operate the air conditioner without
the air filter in place.
Lift out the air filter by the handle.

heavily soiled, it can be washed in warm water using a
mild detergent.
Do not use harsh cleaners or very hot water.
Do not wash in a dishwasher.
Allow the filter to dry completely before reinstalling.
Reinsert the filter.
