Clean the air conditioner and filters regularly to maximize 
performance and efficiency, and prolong the unit’s life. Be sure to 
always unplug the air conditioner from the power outlet before 
cleaning. 
 
Use a soft dry cloth to wipe the body clean. If necessary, use 
lukewarm water to dampen a cloth to clean the unit. 
Use a soft bristle brush to clean between the vents.  
Carefully use a vacuum cleaner to clean the condenser coils 
 
Never use abrasive chemicals, volatile substances, gasoline, 
detergents, chemically treated cloths, or other cleaning solvents 
that may damage the cabinet exterior. 
 
Never spray water directly on the unit. 
 
To clean the pre-filter, follow the steps below: 
 
1) Power off the unit and remove the pre-filter.  
2) Remove the activated carbon filter. 
3) Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly to remove loose 
dust and dirt, then rinse thoroughly under lukewarm running water 
(below 104°F). You may use a mild soap and water solution if 
needed. Allow the pre-filter to air dry in a cool and shaded place. 
Dry thoroughly before reinstalling.  
 
Clean the pre-filter periodically. If the unit is used in a dusty 
environment you may need to clean it on a weekly basis. 
 
Warning: Never operate the unit without the filters. 
 
If you are not going to be using the unit for an extended period of 
time, follow the instructions below before storing your unit: 
 
1) Drain all the water from the unit’s reservoir. Operate the unit in 
fan mode for a few hours to thoroughly dry any moisture left on the 
coils inside the unit.  
2) Power off the unit, and clean or change the filters. 
3) Unplug and carefully wind the power cord. 
4) Remove the exhaust hose and duct connectors and keep them 
in a safe place.

should replace it every 2-3 
months or as needed. Contact
