ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

WARNING

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

Turn off electric power before inspections, maintenances, or service.

Extreme care must be used, if it becomes necessary to work on equipment with power applied.

Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

WARNING

EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD

Use two people to lift or carry the unit, and wear proper protective clothing.

Failure to do so may result in personal injury.

WARNING

CUT/SEVER HAZARD

Be careful with the sharp edges and corners.

Wear protective clothing and gloves, etc.

Failure to do so could result in serious injury.

NOTICE

Units are to be inspected and serviced by qualified service personnel only. Use proper protection on surrounding property. Failure to follow this notice could result in moderate or serious property damage.

NOTICE

Do not use a caustic coil cleaning agent on coils or base pan. Use a biodegradable cleaning agent and degreaser, to prevent damage to the coil and/or base pan.

AIR FILTER

The air filter should be inspected weekly and cleaned if needed by vacuuming with a dust attachment or by cleaning in the sink using warm water and a mild dishwashing detergent. Dry the filter thoroughly before reinstalling. Use caution as the coil surface can be sharp.

TO REMOVE, WASH AND REPLACE FILTER Lower front panel. Use handle on filter to flex filter up and out of retainer. Remove filter from unit. Clean filter monthly or more frequently if needed. Refer to accessories section for filter options.

COILS AND BASE PAN

The indoor coil (evaporator coil), the outdoor coil (condenser coil) and base pan should be inspected periodically (yearly or bi-yearly) and cleaned of all debris (lint, dirt, leaves, paper, etc.). Clean the coils and base pan with a soft brush and compressed air or vacuum. If using a pressure washer, be careful not to bend the aluminium fin pack. Use a sweeping up and down motion in the direction of the vertical aluminum fin pack when pressure cleaning coils. Cover all electrical components to protect them from water or spray. Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before reinstalling it in the sleeve.

NOTE: Do not use a caustic coil cleaning agent on coils or base pan. Use a biodegradable cleaning agent and degreaser. The use of harsh c leaning materials may lead to deterioration o f the

NOTE: It is extremely i mportant t o insure t hat none o f the electrical and/or electronic parts of the unit get wet. Be sure to cover all electrical components to protect them from water or spray.

BLOWER WHEEL / HOUSING / CONDENSER FAN / SHROUD

Inspect the indoor blower and its housing, evaporator blade, condenser fan blade and condenser shroud periodically (yearly or bi-yearly) and clean of all debris (lint, dirt, mold, fungus, etc.). Clean the blower housing area and blower wheel with an antibacterial / antifungal cleaner. Use a biodegradable cleaning agent and degreaser on condenser fan and condenser shroud. Use warm or cold water when rinsing these items. Allow all items to dry thoroughly before reinstalling them.

ELECTRONIC / ELECTRICAL / MECHANICAL

Periodically (at least yearly or bi-yearly): inspect

all control components: electronic, electrical and mechanical, as well as the power supply. Use proper testing instruments (voltmeter, ohmmeter, ammeter, wattmeter, etc.) to perform electrical tests. Use an air conditioning or refrigeration thermometer to check room, outdoor and coil operating temperatures.

BLOWER/FAN MOTOR

The motor is permanently lubricated.
