Performing annual maintenance

Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure steady, top performance through- out the year.

Call the service company recommended by your dealer to:

l Inspect and clean the coils and condensate water passages. 7

l Check fan and fan motor.

The compressor is sealed and needs no oiling. Expense of annual inspection is the customer’s responsibility.

OR

If you are familiar with electrical appliances, you can do the cleaning and maintenance yourself. If you choose to do so, follow these steps.

Electrical Shock, Product Damage and

Personal Injury Hazard

l Unplug power cord from receptacle before performing any maintenance. Be sure no liquid gets into the motor, electrical control box or compressor electrical terminals.

l Do not lift, push or pull any white beaded foam (expanded polystyrene) parts.

l Because your air conditioner weighs from 50 to 70 pounds, it is recommended that you have someone help you when you remove and re-install your unit and that you both use proper lifting techniques.

l Handle the air conditioner with care. Watch out for the sharp, metal fins on the front and rear coils.

l Do not use the collected water for drinking purposes. It is not sanitary.

Failure to follow the above precautions could result in electrical shock, product damage or oersonal injury.
