CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING:
When cleaning the air conditioner, be sure to turn the
SELECTOR knob to the “OFF” position and
disconnect the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
1) DO NOT use gasoline, benzene, thinner, or any
other chemicals to clean this unit, as these substances
may cause damage to the finish and deformation of
plastic parts.
2) Never attempt to clean the unit by pouring water
directly over any of the surface areas, as this will
cause deterioration of electrical components and
wiring insulation.
AIR FILTER:
If the air filter becomes clogged with dust, air flow is
obstructed and reduces efficiency. The air filter
should be cleaned every 2 weeks.
AIR FILTER REMOVAL:
The air filter is located behind the air intake front
grill. To remove the air filter, grasp the filter handle
on the front of the gril and slide it out to the right.
To reinstall the air filter, reverse the above
procedures. The air filter must be vacuumed or
washed by hand in warm water. Dry thoroughly
before re-installing.
CLEANING AIR FILTER:
1) Use a vacuum cleaner with soft brush attachment
2) Wash the filter in lukewarm water below 40°C
(104°F): To get best results, wash with soapy water or
a neutral cleaning agent.
3) Rinse the filter with clean water and dry
thoroughly before re-installing.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT forget to install the
air filter. If the air conditioner is left to operate
without the air filter, dust is not removed from the
room air and may result in machine failure. When the
air inlet grill and cabinet are dirty, wipe with
lukewarm water (below 40°C). Use of a mild
detergent is recommended.
END OF SEASON CARE:
1) Operate the fan alone for half a day to dry out the
inside of the unit.
2) Turn off power and remove plug from wall socket.
3) Clean filter.
4) Store (covered) air conditioner in a dry location.
CAUTION: When installing and/or removing
the air conditioner from the window, ensure that
caution is taken to prevent it from falling
backward. It is recommended that installation or
removal of the air conditioner is done with
assistance to prevent injury to persons or damage
to the unit or property.
