REQUIREMENT
Be sure to clean the heat exchanger with pressurized water.
If a commercially available detergent (strong alkaline or acid) cleaning agent is used, the surface treatment of the
heat exchanger will be marred, which may degrade the self cleaning performance. For details, contact the dealer.
Periodic Maintenance
For environmental conservation, it is strongly recommended that the indoor and outdoor units of the air conditioner
in use be cleaned and maintained regularly to ensure efficient operation of the air conditioner.
When the air conditioner is operated for a long time, periodic maintenance (once a year) is recommended.
Furthermore, regularly check the outdoor unit for rust and scratches, and remove them or apply rustproof
treatment, if necessary.
As a general rule, when an indoor unit is operated for 8 hours or more daily, clean the indoor unit and outdoor unit
at least once every 3 months. Ask a professional for this cleaning / maintenance work.
Such maintenance can extend the life of the product though it involves the owner's expense.
Failure to clean the indoor and outdoor units regularly will result in poor performance, freezing, water leakage, and
even compressor failure.
Inspection before maintenance (Once a year)
Following inspection must be carried out by a qualified installer or qualified service person.
