Cleaning the air filter

The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important for best cooling or heating and operating efficiency. Check the filter every 2 weeks to see if it needs cleaning. Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in place.

1.Unplug air conditioner or disconnect power.

2.Put fingers in indents in top of filter door and pull door down. Filter door is not removable.

3.Slide air filter up and out to remove from the filter door.

4.Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air filter. If air filter is very dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash air filter in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners.

NOTE: Air dry filter completely before replacing to ensure maximum efficiency.

5.Slide air filter down into the filter door. Close filter door.

6.Plug in air conditioner or reconnect power.
