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.

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

1.Turn off air conditioner.

Repairing Paint Damage

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.”

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.
