Cleaning the Air Filter

The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps
remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important
for best cooling or heating and operating efficiency. Check the
filter every 2 weeks to see whether it needs cleaning.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in
place.
1. Turn off air conditioner.
2. Using the indents in top of filter door, pull door down. Filter
door is not removable.
3. Slide air filter up and out to remove from the filter door.

When your air conditioner is operating normally, you may hear
sounds such as:
Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a pinging or
clicking sound. The water droplets help cool the condenser.
Air movement from the fan.
Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.
A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern
high-efficiency compressor cycling on and off.
4. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air filter. If air filter is very dirty,
wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not wash air
filter in the dishwasher or use any chemical cleaners. Air dry
filter completely before replacing to ensure maximum
efficiency.
