Make sure that air inlet and return air grillages of the outdoor unit are not
blocked by foreign objects.
Cleaning of air filter
Air filter cleans the air entering the conditioner from dust and foreign
particles. If the filter is contaminated, the conditioner capacity decreases
sharply. If the conditioner is operated permanently, the filter should be
cleaned once per two weeks.
If the conditioner is installed in a room with dusty atmosphere, then the air
filter should be cleaned more often.
To remove the filter, open the air inlet of the indoor unit panel. Press the
locks to the center and pull the grillages down. Remove the air inlet.
Remove the air filter. Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner or rinse it in
clean water. If the filter is contaminated heavily, clean it with a soft brush
and wash in diluted washing solution, then dry it in a cool place.
While cleaning the filter with the vacuum cleaner, hold it with contaminated
surface up. While washing the filter in water, hold it with contaminated
surface down.
Do not dry the filter in the sun or near a fire.
Set the air filter to initial position and close an air inlet cover
