1. TURN OFF ELECTRICAL POWER TO YOUR UNIT
BEFORE SERVICING OR PERFORMING MAINTE-
NANCE. ELECTRIC SHOCK COULD CAUSE SERI-
OUS INJURY OR DEATH.
2. When removing access panels or performing maintenance
functions inside your unit, be aware of sharp sheet metal
parts and screws. Although special care is taken to reduce
sharp edges to a minimum, be extremely careful when
handling parts or reaching into the unit.
AIR FILTERS — Air filter(s) should be checked at least every 3
or 4 weeks and changed or cleaned whenever it becomes dirty.
Dirty filters produce excessive stress on the blower motor and can
cause the motor to overheat and shut down. Table 1 indicates the
correct filter size for your unit. Refer to Fig. 2 to access the
filter(s).
To replace or inspect filter(s) (or accessory filter rack when
supplied):
1. Remove the filter access panel using a 5/16-in. nut driver.
2. Remove the filter(s) by pulling the filter(s) out of the unit. If
the filter(s) is dirty, clean or replace with new one.
When installing the new filter(s), note the direction of the airflow
arrows on the filter frame.
If you have difficulty in locating your air filter(s), or if you have
questions concerning proper filter maintenance, contact your
dealer for instructions. When replacing filters, always use the same
size and type of filter that was supplied originally by the installer.
