Maintenance and Service
Air Filter
Check the air filter at least twice a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped
particles in the filter can build up and block the airflow, reducing cooling capacity
and causing an accumulation of frost on the evaporator. To clean the air filter:
Do not force
open or open to far.
1. Pull the inlet grille forward.
2. Remove the air filter from the front grille by pulling the air filter up slightly.
3. Wash the filter using lukewarm water below 40 °C (104 °F).
4. Gently shake the excess water from the filter and replace.
Cleaning The Air Conditioner
The front grille and Inlet grille may be
wiped with a cloth dampened in a mild
detergent solution.
The cabinet may be washed with mild
soap or detergent and lukewarm
water, then polished with Liquid Wax
for Appliances.
To ensure continued peak efficiency,
the condenser coils (outside of unit)
should be checked periodically and
cleaned if clogged with soot or dirt
from the atmosphere.
