Outdoor Unit – Owner’s Information
Congratulations on the purchase of your new outdoor unit. Your outdoor unit is designed to
work with a matched indoor unit creating a system that delivers years of dependable service
and performance.
Proper Maintenance*
Your system requires maintenance and repair by a properly trained service technician. “Do‑it‑yourself”
repairs on an in‑warranty unit may void your warranty.
Other than performing the simple main tenance recommended below, you should not attempt to make
any adjustments or repairs to your system. Your dealer can assist you with questions or problems.
1) Replace the air filter(s)
A clean filter saves you money by helping ensure top system efficiency.
When replacing your filter(s), always use the same size and type that was originally supplied or consult
with your dealer for recommendations. Be sure to replace it with the arrows pointing in the direction of
the airflow.
Where disposable filters are used, they must be replaced every month with the same size as originally
supplied. Clean or replace your filter twice a month during seasons when the unit runs more often.
Ask your dealer where the filter is located in your system and how to service it.
2) Maintain free outdoor coil airflow
Efficient operation of your system depends on the free flow of air over outdoor unit’s coil.
Do not plant flowers or shrubbery right next to the unit. Also, make sure that nothing is stacked against
the sides of the unit or draped over it.
Buildup of snow and ice can restrict airflow. As soon as possible after accumulation, clean snow from the
area around the outdoor unit.
3) Clean the finish
To keep your system looking new for years, clean the enamel finish with soap and water. For stubborn
grease spots, use a household detergent. Do not use lacquer thinner or other synthetic solvents as they
may damage the finish.
4) Call your dealer for additional routine maintenance
Your system should be inspected at least once per year by a properly trained service technician.
Ask your dealer about economical service or preventative maintenance agreements that cover seasonal
inspections. Optional extended warranties are also available.
IMPORTANT: If the indoor air exceeds 60% relative humidity or simply feels uncomfortably
humid, it is recommended that the indoor fan only be used in the AUTO mode.
Before you call for service, check the following:
