Maintenance

Smudges and dirt on the unit’s window can interfere with the unit’s performance.

If the window requires cleaning, use only a mild glass cleaner containing no

ammonia. When cleaning the window, spray the cleaner onto a lint free, non-

abrasive cleaning cloth then gently wipe the window clean.

If the unit’s case requires cleaning, use a mild cleaning agent that does not

contain strong oxidizing chemicals. Strong cleaning agents may discolor or

damage the unit’s exterior.
