Care & Cleaning
Front Panel and Case
• Turn off unit and disconnect power supply. To
clean, use water and a mild detergent. DO NOT
use bleach or abrasive cleaners. Some commercial
cleaners may damage the plastic parts.
Outdoor Coil
• Coil on outdoor side of unit should be checked
regularly. Unit will need to be removed to inspect
dirt buildup that will occur on the inside of the
coil. If clogged with dirt and soot, coil should be
professionally cleaned. Clean inside and outside of
outdoor coils regularly.
NOTE: Never use a high-pressure spray on coil.
• CAUTION: UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD. Failure to
follow this caution may result in equipment damage
or improper operation. Airflow restriction may cause
damage to the unit.
AIR FILTERS
IMPORTANT: TURN OFF UNIT BEFORE CLEANING.
• CAUTION: UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD. Failure
to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation. Do not operate
unit without filters in place. If a filter becomes torn
or damaged, it should be replaced immediately.
Operating without filters in place or with damaged
filter will allow dirt and dust to reach indoor coil and
will reduce cooling, heating, airflow and efficiency
of the unit. Airflow restriction may cause damage
to the unit.
• The most important thing you can do to maintain
unit efficiency is to clean the filters once every
two weeks as required.
• Clogged filters reduce cooling, heating and airflow.
• Keeping filters clean will:
- Decrease cost of operation.
- Save energy.
- Prevent clogged indoor coil.

• To clean air filters:
- Vacuum off heavy soil.
- Run water through filter.
- Dry thoroughly before replacing.
