■ Care and Cleaning

WARNING
●
For safety, be sure to turn the air conditioner off and
also to disconnect the power before cleaning.
●
Do not pour water on the indoor unit to clean it. This will
damage the internal components and cause an electric
shock hazard.
Air intake and outlet side (Indoor unit)
Clean the air intake and outlet side of the indoor unit with a
vacuum cleaner brush, or wipe them with a clean, soft cloth.
If these parts are stained, use a clean cloth moistened with
water. When cleaning the air outlet side, be careful not to force
the vanes out of place.
CAUTION
● Never use solvents or harsh chemicals when cleaning
the indoor unit. Do not wipe plastic parts using very hot
water.
● Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may
cause injury if handled improperly; be especially careful
when you clean these parts.
● The internal coil and other components of outdoor
unit must be cleaned regularly. Consult your dealer or
service center.

Air filter

The air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and
should be cleaned at regular intervals as indicated in the
table below or when the filter indication ( ) on the display of
the remote controller (wired type) shows that the filter needs
cleaning. If the filter gets blocked, the efficiency of the air
conditioner drops greatly.

The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends
on the environment in which the unit is used.
Clean the filter frequently for best performance in the area of
dusty or oil spots regardless of filter status.
<How to clean the filter>
1. Remove the air filter from the air-intake grille.
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If there is sticky
dust on the filter, wash the filter in lukewarm, soapy water,
rinse it in clean water, and dry it.

CAUTION
● When cleaning the air filter, never remove the safety
chain. If it is necessary to remove it for servicing and
maintenance inside, be sure to reinstall the safety chain
securely (hook on the grille side) after the work.
