The air filter behind the intake grille should be
washed at least every two weeks or as often as it
needs cleaning.

HOW TO CLEAN THE AIR FILTER:
1. To remove the air filter, grasp the tab on the filter

and pull to the right.

2. Vacuum the filter on the dusty side to remove

light dust.

3. Wash the filter, cleaner side up under gently flowing

water to wash out accumulated dust and lint.

4. If the filter is very dirty, use a mild household

detergent in the wash water.

Let the filter dry thoroughly before reinstalling it.
When reinstalling the filter, be sure the word “FRONT”
is facing you as you slide the filter back into place.

Clean the front grille with a clean cloth lightly
dampened with mild liquid dish-washing detergent.

Wipe off dirt with a soft, dry cloth (use a vacuum
cleaner to remove dust from the air intake.)
Use a cloth and water less than 40

°

C to remove

stubborn dirt (the cloth should be well-wrung).
Do not use the following cleansers as they cause
the paint to peel and lead to malfunctions:
Benzene, thinner, scouring powder, chemical-
soaked cloths, etc.

lukewarm water +
mild detergent

Vacuum cleaner

Clean the cabinet with mild soap or detergent and
lukewarm water.

* After long-term usage of room air conditioners, dust

and dirt will accumulate inside, lowering the perform-
ance.  This may cause the generation of odour or may
impede the drainage of the dehumidifying water.

* Besides regular cleaning of the air conditioner, a

separate annual check is also recommended
(chargeable). Please request your dealer to carry out
these checks.
