Caring For Your Air Conditioner
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.
l
Check fan and fan motor.
The compressor and fan motor are sealed and
need no oiling. Expense of annual inspection is
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 the steps on page 6.
