Cleaning the Air Filter
The air lter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean lter helps
remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important
for best cooling and operating efciency. Check the lter at least
once per month to see whether it needs cleaning.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the lter in
place. Doing so will degrade the unit performance over time.
1. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air lter.
2. If the air lter is very dirty, use the liquid dish soap and warm
water to wash the lter.
3. Rinse the lter properly and shake the lter gently to remove
the excess water.
4. Let the lter dry completely before placing it into the air
conditioner to ensure maximum efciency.
NOTE: Do not wash the air lter in the dishwasher or use any
chemical cleaners; it may damage the lter.
Cleaning the Front Panel
1. Unplug the air conditioner.
2. Wipe the front panel with a soft, damp cloth.
3. Air dry the front panel completely.
Repairing Paint Damage
Check once or twice a year for paint damage. This is very
important, especially in areas near saltwater or where rust is a
problem. If needed, touch up with a good grade enamel paint.
Winter Storage
Cover the air conditioner with an appropriate cover to block
outside air ow and to provide insulation.
