Cleaning
Instructions
It is
necessary
to clean your air filter and front panel
properly for top performance and cleaner air.
Cleaning the front panel
1. Unplug the power cord.
2. Remove the front panel from the cabinet for easy
cleaning. Remove the screws from the bottom edge
of the front panel. Lift the front panel up and towards
you. See Figure 7.
3. Remove the air filter and clean it separately if needed.
(See "Cleaning the slide-out air filter" on page 14.)
4. Using a soft cloth, clean the front panel with warm water
and a mild soap or detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
Wipe the control panel with
a
soft, dry cloth.
5. Replace the front panel and screws.
6. Plug in the power cord.
Repairing paint damage
Check once or twice a year for paint damage. This may
occur, especially in salty environments (near oceans, etc.)
or where rust is a problem. If needed, touch up with a good
grade enamel paint.
NOTE: To reduce paint damage during the winter, install a
heavy-duty cover on your air conditioner's cabinet. For
information on ordering a heavy-duty cover see page 26.
