Grille and Case

Turn the air conditioner off and remove the plug

from the wall outlet before cleaning.

To clean, use water and a mild detergent. Do not

use bleach or abrasives.

Air Filter

Ensure the power is off before open the front Grill.

The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned

at least once every 2 weeks or more often if necessary.

The grille is designed to clean the filter both upward and

downward.

To remove:

Open the inlet grille upward by pulling out the bottom of the

inlet grille or downward by pulling out the top of the inlet grille.

Using the tab, pull up slightly on the filter to release it and pull

it down or up.

Clean the filter with warm, soapy water below 40°C (104°/F).

Rinse and gently shake the water from the filter and let it dry

before replacing it.

CAUTION:

DO NOT operate the air conditioner without a filter

because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce

performance.

Drainage

In humid weather, excess water may cause the BASE PAN to overflow.

To drain the water, remove the DRAIN CAP and secure the DRAIN PIPE

to the rear hole of the BASE PAN.

To remove the condensed water, you can install the drain pan as below.

Take the drain pan which is located in the air discharge.

Install the drain pan to the right corner of the cabinet with 4 screws.

Connect the drain hose to the outlet located at the bottom of the drain

pan. You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your

particular needs. (Drain hose is not supplied).
