CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

If the filter is clogged with dust, the amount of air flow will

be reduced, resulting in poor cooling performance. The

filter should be cleaned every 10 days. At the beginning of

every cooling season or after a long period of inactivity,

clean the filter before starting the unit.

To clean the front panel and cabinet, wipe with a soft, dry cloth or with a cloth moistened with a

mild soap. Rinse carefully by wiping with a damp cloth and dry completely.

Avoid splashing the unit with water. Excess water can damage electrical insulation and result in

danger.

Never use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on any part of the unit. To avoid damage to the

unit, do not use hot water (120°F / 50°C or more) when cleaning.

The compressor is permanently lubricated and is hermetically sealed. The fan motor is

lifetime sealed and does not require oiling.

Gently pull the filter handle to the right and slide the

filter out from the unit.

To remove dust from the filter, use a vacuum cleaner

or wash it in clean water.

If the filter is very dirty, wash it with detergent and

rinse carefully with clean water. Dry the filter with

a soft cloth.

Do not expose the filter to heat or dry it in direct

sunlight.

Align the filter behind the front panel.

Grasp the filter handle and gently push the filter back

into place.

Never operate the unit without installing the filter. It

may result in serious damage to the unit.

Before removing the air conditioner, operate the unit in the HIGH FAN mode on the fine day,

for about half a day to thoroughly dry the water inside the air conditioner unit.
