Care And Maintenance

• It is necessary to have an adequate ventilation space around the unit in order to
attain proper performance, dissipation of heat, maintain efficiency, and low power
consumption. Clearance of minimum 5 inches should be maintained at the rear and
sides of the unit and 8 inches at the top of the unit.

into a non-grounded outlet. To avoid heat damage to the power cord, please ensure
that it does not come in proximity or in direct contact with the compressor of the unit.

with water or moisture to minimize rusting of metal parts.

come in direct contact with the sunlight.
• The components, if need to be replaced, should be replaced with like components,
and should be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard and minimize the risk of possible ignition
due to incorrect parts or improper service.
