CARE AND CLEANING

Clean your air conditioner to keep it looking new and to minimize
dust build up.
Air filter Cleaning
The air filter should be checked at least once every month to see
if it needs cleaning. Trapped particles and dust can build up in
the filter and may decrease airflow as well as cause the cooling
coils to accumulate frost. to clean the air filter:
1.
Remove the filter by sliding it out from the front right side of
the air conditioner. (See FIG.15)
2.
Wash the filter using liquid dish soap and warm water. Rinse
the filter thoroughly. Gently shake the filter to remove
excess water.
3.
Let the filter dry completely before placing it into the air
conditioner.
4.
If you do not wish to wash the filter, you may vacuum the
filter to remove the dust and other particles.
Enclosure Cleaning
To clean the air conditioner enclosure:
• Unplug the air conditioner to prevent shock or a fire hazard. The
cabinet and front panel of the air conditioner may be dusted with
an oil-free cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in a solution of
warm water and mild liquid soap. Rinse thoroughly with a damp
cloth and wipe dry.
• Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the cabinet front.
• Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before wiping
around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may
cause damage to the air conditioner.
Winter Storage

period of time, remove it carefully from the window according to
the installation instructions and cover it with plastic or place it in
