- Ensure the filter is dry before plugging the unit back in and operating.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your air conditioner, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Unit does not turn on | No power, tripped circuit breaker, power cord not fully plugged in. | Check power connection, reset circuit breaker, ensure plug is secure. |
| Unit is not cooling effectively | Dirty air filter, exhaust hose not properly installed, room too large, windows/doors open. | Clean air filter, ensure exhaust hose is sealed, close windows/doors, check room size against unit capacity. |
| Unit is noisy | Unit not on a level surface, foreign object in fan, filter clogged. | Place unit on a flat surface, check for obstructions (unplug first!), clean filter. |
