It is necessary to clean your air filter and front panel properly for top performance and cleaner air.
Cleaning the air filter
Your air conditioner’s 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 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.Slide the air filter up and out of the top of the front panel. See Figure 7.
2.Clean the filter using a vacuum cleaner. If the filter is very dirty, wash it in warm water and a mild detergent. Do not wash the air filter in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners. Air dry thoroughly before replac- ing to ensure maximum efficiency.
3.Slide the air filter back down in the opening in the top of the front panel.
