Care and Cleaning

Grille and Case
Turn the air conditioner off and remove the plug from the
wall outlet before cleaning.

Air Filter

The air filter behind the front grille should be checked
and cleaned at least every 30 days or more often if
necessary.
To remove:
Pull the tab on the right side of the unit until the filter is
out.
To remove:
Open the inlet grille by pulling downward on the tabs at
the top upper corners of the inlet grille until the grille is in
a 45º position. Remove the filter.
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and let the
filter dry before replacing it. Your filter is also dishwasher
safe, top rack and straight placement in dishwasher is
recommended.
CAUTION
DO NOT operate the air conditioner
without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and
reduce performance.

Outdoor Coils

The coils on the outdoor side of the air conditioner
should be checked regularly. If they are clogged with dirt
or soot, they may be professionally cleaned.
