Maintenance
Thank You!
Always unplug the unit from the mains before beginning the cleaning. 
 
Cleaning the Housing
 
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the body clean. 
Never use strong chemicals, oil-based products, detergents, chemically treated 
cloths or other cleaning solutions. These could possibly damage the cabinet. 
Important! Clean the exhaust air intake area (located on the  side, near bottom) 
with a vacuum to remove dust accumulation. Excessive dust may cause a 
decrease in performance and/or damage to the compressor. Damage caused by 
improper maintenance will void the warranty. 
 
Cleaning the Filter 
Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly to remove loose dust and dirt from the 
filters and then rinse them thoroughly under running water (no hotter than 104°F) Do 
not wet the activated carbon filter, remove from frame before washing.  
Dry thoroughly before replacing. 
Notice! Never operate the unit without the filters. 
 
End of Season Storage
 
Unplug the unit. 
Drain the condensed water COMPLETELY (please refer to 
page 1 ). Clean or change the filter. 
On a warm day, turn the unit to fan mode for a couple of hours so that the inside can dry out 
completely. It is recommended that the unit be put back into its original carton for storage.
