Cleaning and maintaining your air conditioner
Cleaning the cabinet
• Dust the cabinet and front with an oil-free cloth, or wash with a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and mild
liquid dish-washing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.
• Never use harsh cleaners, wax, or polish on the cabinet.
• Make sure that you wring excess water from the cloth before wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the
controls can damage your air conditioner.
Cleaning the air filter
1 Open the front panel of your air conditioner.
2 Grasp the center of the filter, then pull up and out.
3 Wash the filter with warm water, then rinse thoroughly. Gently shake excess water from the filter, and let it air dry. Make
sure that the filter is thoroughly dry before replacing it.
OR
Vacuum the filter to remove dust and other debris.
Storing your air conditioner
If you plan to store your air conditioner during the winter, remove it carefully from the window (see Removing your air
conditioner from the window on page 30) and cover it with plastic or return it to its original box.
Removing your air conditioner from the window
1 Turn your air conditioner off, and disconnect the power cord.
2 Remove the sash sealing foam from between the windows, then unscrew the safety sash lock.
3 Retract the integrated window locks, if used.
4 Remove the screws and retract the anti-tip brackets.
5 Remove the side arm foam blocks from both sides of your air conditioner.
6 Keeping a firm grip on your air conditioner, raise the window sash and carefully remove your air conditioner.
CAUTION: Unplug your air conditioner before cleaning to prevent shock or fire hazards.
Note: Never use hot water over 104° F (40° C) to clean the air filter. Never attempt to use your air conditioner without the air filter.
Note: Be careful not to spill any remaining water while lifting your air conditioner from the window. Store parts with your air
conditioner.
