CARE & MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

A clogged air fi lter can reduce the effi ciency of the
air conditioner. It is advisable to clean the air fi lter
every two weeks or after 240 hours of operation,
whichever comes fi rst. When removing the fi lter, do
not touch any metal parts inside the appliance as
the sharp metal edges can cause injury.
1. Lift the front panel of the indoor appliance.
2. Grip the tab on the end of the fi lter, lift it up and
pull it outwards to remove it from the appliance.
3. If the fi lter has a small air freshening fi lter, unclip
if from the larger fi lter. Clean the air freshening
fi lter with a soft brush or hand-held vacuum
cleaner.
4. Clean the large fi lter with warm, soapy water.
Use mild detergent.
5. Rinse the fi lter with clean water. Ensure all soap
is removed from the fi lter and shake off excess
water.
6. Dry the fi lter in a cool, dry place. Do not expose
the fi lter to direct sunlight as this can warp or
shrink the fi lter.
7. When the fi lter is dry, replace the air freshening
fi lter and then slide the larger fi lter back into the
appliance.
8. Close the front panel of the indoor appliance.
Note: Do not touch the air freshening (plasma)
fi lter for at least 10 minutes after turning off the
appliance to allow it to cool.
