EN Air Conditioner Care

Your new air conditioner is designed to give you many years of dependable service. This section tells you how to clean and care for your air conditioner properly. Call your local authorized dealer for an annual checkup. Remember… the cost of this service call is your responsibility.

Cleaning the air filter

The air filter is removable from either side of the unit for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important for best cooling 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.Unplug air conditioner or disconnect power.

2.Slide air filter out from either side of unit.

3.Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air filter. If air filter is very dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash air filter in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners. Air dry filter completely before replacing to ensure maximum efficiency.

4.Slide air filter back into either side of unit.

5.Plug in air conditioner or reconnect power.

Filter may be removed from either side.

Cleaning the front panel

2.Wipe the front panel with a soft, damp cloth.

3.Air dry front panel completely.

Repairing paint damage

Check once or twice a year for paint damage. This is very important, especially in areas near oceans or where rust is a problem. If needed, touch up with a good grade enamel paint.

NOTE: To reduce paint damage during the winter, install a heavy-duty cover over air conditioner cabinet. For information on ordering a heavy-duty cover, see “Accesories.”

Performing annual maintenance

Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure steady, top performance throughout the year. Call your local authorized dealer to schedule an annual checkup. The expense of an annual inspection is your responsibility.
