Installing the Carbon Filter
CAUTION: Never operate the air conditioner without the pre-filter attached.
Your EdgeStar portable air conditioner ships with a pre-filter and an activated carbon filter. The carbon filter will help remove contaminates and odors from the air. It is recommended you replace the carbon filter every two to three months, or as needed. It is necessary to clean the pre-filter periodically. Follow the steps below to install the carbon filter:
1. Pull the pre-filter straight up.
