5.Replace the filter, elastic band, and front panel.

6.Plug in rhe power cord.

Air filter tips

l Your air filter should be replaced once a year.

. For information on ordering a new filter, see page 26.

Energy saving tips

You can help save energy by reducing your air conditioner’s work load:

l Improve your home’s insulation. Seal doors and windows. Close fireplace flue. *

l Close blinds or drapes on the sunny side of your house. Add awnings.

l Check air filter often to make sure it is clean. l Do not block airflow with drapes or furniture.

. Ventilate your attic. High temperatures in the attic add to the cooling load of your air conditioner.

l Try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.

l Turn lights and appliances off when they are not needed. l Keep heat registers and cool-air returns closed.

l Use exhaust/venting fans while cooking, bathing, and doing laundry.
