CLEANING THE FILTER
For energy efficient operation, your filter should be
cleaned at least once a month. Units in dusty envi-
ronments may require more frequent filter cleaning.
•
The filter cover swings open by pulling on
the tabs located on both sides as shown.
Note: The cover opens just enough to allow
access to the filter.
•
Remove the filter by gently pulling it up and
out.
•
Use a vacuum cleaner or rinse the filter in cold
water. If the filter is particularly dirty (such as
grease buildup), wash and gently scrub the
filter in a bath of warm (not hot) soapy water.
Let the filter completely dry in a shady place;
exposing the filter to direct sunlight can cause
deformation.
•
After the filter is clean and completely dry, re-
insert the filter and close the filter cover by
pressing firmly.
Note: To avoid deformation and fire risk, never dry the
filter with a heat source, such as a hair dryer, fireplace, or heater.
TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM / POSSIBLE CAUSES
The air conditioner does not function at all
• Is the power cable properly inserted into a functioning, grounded outlet?
• Is there a power failure such as a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker?
• Is the delay timer set to "TIMER ON" mode? Disable the delay function to immediately
start operation.
• Is the ambient temperature lower than 61°F (16°C)? A safety device prevents the
unit from cooling the room to even lower temperatures.
Insufficient Cooling
• Is the unit temperature set properly?
• Is the air filter dirty?
• Are doors or windows open?
• Is the room directly exposed to sunlight or are there other heat sources in the
room?
• Are there a large number of people in the room?
