Caring For Your Air Conditioner; Cleaning The Air Filter - Haier ESA406M User & Care Manual

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean air filter helps remove dust, lint, and particles
from the air for optimal cooling and operating efficiency. The Filter Reset light will turn on to
notify you that the air filter must be cleaned. The light goes on after the air conditioner has been
operating for 240 hours.
1. Turn off the air conditioner and unplug the power supply cord from the outlet.
2. Remove the air filter by opening the front panel and removing the air filter. Some models may
have a filter that slides out instead and does not require opening of the front panel. (See Fig.25
& Fig.26)

3. Use a vacuum cleaner with the hose attachment to clean the air filter. If the air filter is very
dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash the air filter in a dishwasher or
clothes washer, or use any chemical cleaners. Do not use a clothes dryer or microwave oven to
dry it. Air-dry the air filter completely before placing it back in the unit.
4. Place the air filter back in the air conditioner.
5. Close the front panel.
6. Plug the power supply cord into the outlet, turn on the air conditioner and press the filter reset
button to turn off the indicator light.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in place.
