TURN THE AIR CONDITIONER OFF AND REMOVE THE PLUG FROM THE POWER OUTLET.

The air filter will become dirty as it removes 
dust from the inside air.
It should be washed at least every 2 weeks. 
If the air filter remains full of dust, the air 
flow will decrease and the cooling capacity 
will be reduced, possibly damaging the unit.

1. Pull the inlet grille forward and pull out the 

air filter. (Fig. 1)

2. Wash the air filter in warm 104°F (40°C) water. 

Be sure to shake off all the water before
replacing the filter.

The front grille and inlet grille may be wiped with a
cloth dampened in a mild detergent solution. (Fig. 2)
The cabinet may be washed with mild soap or
detergent and lukewarm water, then polished with
a liquid wax used 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.

knob by pulling.

2. Remove the screw securing the front grille. (Fig. 3)
