authorized repairman.
CAUTION:
DO NOT

lint will clog the unit and reduce performance.
1. AIR FILTERS
Clean the air filters at least once every two weeks to prevent inferior
fan operation because of dust.
•
REMOVAL:
This unit has three filters. Take the filters out according
to Fig. 27.
•
CLEANING:
Wash the air filters by immersing them gently in warm
water (about 104°F/40°C) with a mild detergent. Rinse the filters
and dry them in a cool, dry place.
•
MOUNTING:
Reinstall all three filters before operating the unit.
2. UNIT ENCLOSURE
Use a lint-free cloth soaked with mild detergent to clean the unit
enclosure. Finish by using a dry, clean cloth.
3. UNIT IDLE FOR A LONG TIME
• Remove the rubber plug on the back of the unit and attach a
hose to drain outlet. Place the open end of the hose directly over
the drain area in your basement floor or over a shallow pan (if no
floor drain is available.) (See Fig. 23 & 24.) Remove the plug from
the bottom drain outlet; the water in the bottom tray will drain
out. (See Fig. 26.) Carefully tilt unit back slightly to assist with
water drainage from bottom drain outlet.
• Keep the appliance running on FAN mode for half a day (12
hours) in a warm room to dry the appliance inside and prevent
mold from forming.
• Stop the appliance and unplug it. Wrap the cord around the
power cord buckle and insert plug into power plug socket for
storage. Remove the batteries from the remote control.
• Clean all air filters and reinstall them.
• Disconnect the exhaust hose and keep it in a safe place.
Cover the window hole or remove slider kit from the
window completely.
• Remove the batteries from the remote control.
• Be sure to store the unit in a cool, dark place. Exposure to direct
sunshine or extreme heat can shorten the lifespan of the unit.
