Saving Energy

Along with using Power Saver (on some models), there are many things you can do to help save energy.

Improve your home’s insulation. Seal doors and windows. Close fireplace flue.

Close blinds or drapes on the sunny side of your house. Add awnings.

Make sure drapes or furniture do not block airflow from your air conditioner.

Turn off lights and appliances when they are not needed.

Ventilate your attic. High temperatures in the attic add to the air conditioner’s cooling load.

Try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.

Keep heat registers and cool-air returns closed.

Use exhaust vent fans while cooking, doing laundry, or bathing.

Normal Sounds

When your air conditioner is operating normally, you may hear sounds such as:

Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a pinging or clicking sound. The water droplets help cool the condenser.

Air movement from the fan.

Clicks from the thermostat cycle.

Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.

A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern high-efficiency compressor cycling on and off.

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 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 whether it needs cleaning. Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in place.

1.Unplug air conditioner or disconnect power.

2.Remove air filter by sliding filter out from either side of unit.

Filter may be removed from either side.

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.Replace air filter by sliding filter back into either side of unit.

5.Plug in air conditioner or reconnect power.

Cleaning the Front Panel

1.Unplug air conditioner or disconnect power.

2.Clean front panel with a soft, damp cloth.

3.Air dry front panel completely.

4.Plug in air conditioner or reconnect power.

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 “Accessories” section.

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.
