CARE AND CLEANING
Clean your air conditioner occasionally to keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug the unit before
cleaning to prevent shock or fire hazards.
CAUTION
Air Filter Cleaning (E-star Models only)
The air filter should be checked at least once a month to
see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped particles in the filter
can build up and cause an accumulation of frost on the
cooling coils.
Push the vent handle to the Vent Closed position
(where applicable).
Open the front panel.
Grasp the filter by the center and pull up and out.
Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing detergent
and warm water.
Rinse filter thoroughly.
Gently shake excess water from the filter. Be sure
the filter is thoroughly dry before replacing.
Note: Instead of washing you may vacuum the filter
clean.
Note: Never use hot water over 40° C (104° F) to clean
the air filter. Never attempt to operate the unit without
the air filter.
Cabinet Cleaning
Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent
shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may be
dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with a
cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and
mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse
thoroughly and wipe dry.
Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the
cabinet front.
Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth
before wiping around the controls. Excess water
in or around the controls may cause damage to
the air conditioner.
Plug in air conditioner.
Winter Storage
If you plan to store the air conditioner during the winter,
remove it carefully from the window according to the
installation instructions. Cover it with plastic or return it
to the original carton.
