ADDITIONAL THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

Now that you have mastered the operating procedure, here are more features in your control that you should become familiar with.

• The Cool circuit has an automatic 3 minutes time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly.
  This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. The fan will continue to run during this time.
• The control is capable of displaying temperature in degrees Fahrenheit or degrees Celsius. To convert from one to the other, press and hold the Up and Down buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.

Care and Cleaning

CAUTION

Clean your air conditioner occasionally to keep it looking new. Be sure to unplug the unit before cleaning to prevent chock or fire hazards.

Air Filter Cleaning

For 5000 Btu/h

Remove the filter by sliding out from the right-hand side.

For 6000 to 14000 Btu/h

For 18000 and 25000 Btu/h

The air filter should be checked at least once a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped particles in the filter can build up and cause an accumulation of frost on the cooling coils.

• Push the vent handle to the Vent Closed position (where applicable). Open the front panel.
• Take the filter by the center and pull up and out.
• Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Rinse filter thoroughly. Gently shake excess water from the filter. Be sure the filter is thoroughly dry before replacing. Instead of washing, you may vacuum the filter clean.

Note: Never use hot water over 40^ (104°F) to clean the air filter. Never attempt to operate the unit without the air filter.

Cabinet Cleaning

• Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may be dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry.
• Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the cabinet front.
• Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before wiping around the controls.

Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the air conditioner.

• Plug in air conditioner.

Winter Storage

If you plan to store the air conditioner during the winter, remove it carefully from the window according to the installation instructions. Cover it with plastic or return it to the original carton.
