2 Close the Intake Grille.
(For purposes of example, the illustration shows the indoor unit
without Intake Grille installed.)
● Dust can be cleaned from the air fi lter either with a vacuum
cleaner, or by washing the fi lter in a solution of neutral deter-
gent and warm water. If you wash the fi lter, be sure to allow
it to dry thoroughly in a shady place before reinstalling.
● If dust is allowed to accumulate on the air fi lter, airfl ow will
be reduced, lowering operating effi ciency and increasing
noise.
● During periods of normal use, the Air Filters should be cleaned
every two weeks.
● Don't operate the air conditioner with being opened the intake
grille.
