WARNING
• Before cleaning or performing maintenance,
disconnect the power supply and wait until
the fan stops.
Emptying the Water Collection
Tank
When the internal water collection tank is full, the
LED display will show FL and the air conditioner
will turn off until the tank is emptied.
• Unplug the air conditioner, disconnect the exhaust
hose from the back, and move the air conditioner
to a suitable drain location or outdoors. You may
also place a pan under the drain that will hold up
to 2 pints of water.
• Remove the drain cap from the drain outlet.
• Once the water collection tank is drained, reinstall
the drain cap, making sure it is on securely.
• Place the air conditioner in the desired location,
reconnect the exhaust hose, and plug in the air
conditioner.
NOTE
If you want to disconnect the hose from the
product, grasp the mounting bracket on the hose,
turn it clockwise or counterclockwise, and then
disconnect it easily.

Cleaning the Case

Wipe the case with a slightly damp cloth, then
wipe dry with a dry cloth or towel.
• To prevent damage to the finish, do not use
gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc., or any
abrasive cleansers to clean the air conditioner;
they may damage the finish.
• Never pour water onto or into the air
conditioner. It could damage internal
components and create a shock and fire
hazard.

Cleaning the Air Filter

The air filters should be cleaned every two weeks;
depending on indoor air quality, more frequent
cleaning may be needed. A dirty air filter will
decrease airflow and reduce efficiency.
1. Pull out each air filter by the handle.
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the filter.
If the filters are heavily soiled, they can be
washed in warm water using a mild detergent.
• Do not use harsh cleaners or very hot water.
• Do not wash in a dishwasher.
3. Dry the filter in the shade.
4. Reinsert the filters.
