Care and Cleaning
Air Intake and outlet side (Indoor Unit)
CAUTION
1.For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and also to disconnect the power before cleaning.
2.Do not pour water or spray detergent on the indoor unit to clean it. This will damage the internal components and may cause an electric shock or fire.
Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a vacuum cleaner brush, or wipe them with a clean soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with a mild liquid detergent. When cleaning the air outlet side, be careful not to force the vanes out of place.
1.Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning the indoor unit. Do not wipe plastic parts using very hot water.
2.Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if handled improperly; be especially careful when you clean these parts.
3.The internal coil and other components of the outdoor unit must be cleaned every year. Consult your dealer or service center.
Air filter
NOTE
How to remove the filter
CAUTION
The air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and should be cleaned about once every six months (Recessed type) or two weeks (ceiling mounted type and wall mounted type). If the filter gets blocked, the efficiency of the air conditioner drops greatly.
The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends on the environment in which the unit is used.
Recessed type:
1.Remove the bolt screw on each side out of the latch using a screwdriver. (After cleaning, be sure to reattach the two bolt screws.)
2.Press on the two latches of the air intake grille with your thumbs in the direction of the arrow to open the grille.
3.Open the air intake grille downward.
When cleaning the air filter, never remove the safety string. If it is necessary to remove it for servicing and maintenance inside, be sure to reinstall the safety string securely (hook on the grille side) after the work.
4.Remove the air filter attached to the air intake grille.
