shock.
• Do not open the appliance's back panel. The
panel does not provide access to owner-
serviceable parts and there is a high risk of
electric shock.
• Do not rinse the appliance under flowing
water. If water gets into the appliance, it may
cause electric shock or damage to electronic
components. If this happens, stop using the
appliance and contact the customer service
center for a service.
• Before maintaining or cleaning the appliance,
wait long enough to allow it to cool. Hot water
contained in the appliance may cause burns.

• Periodically inspect the appliance for leaks. If
the unit is suspected of any leaks, immediately
disconnect the unit from the power source.
• Do not use abrasive material, bleach or synthetic
detergents while cleaning inside.
• Keep the inside of the appliance away from dust.
Cooling performance will decrease if the wire
condenser is stained or soiled.
• Do not use metallic brush to clean the wire
condenser inside as it may cause damage to the
appliance.
• Use only a neutral detergent and soft cloth for
cleaning the exterior surfaces.
• Wear rubber gloves while cleaning the appliance
and draining hot water as the hot water could
cause burns or scalding.
• Always drain the water completely before storing
the appliance to avoid stagnation and to reduce
potential bacterial growth.

wait at least 5 minutes to reconnect it.
