5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your air conditioner.
Filter Cleaning:
The unit is equipped with a dust filter. A dirty filter can reduce cooling efficiency and airflow. Clean the filter regularly, ideally every two weeks or more often depending on usage and air quality.
- Unplug the unit from the power outlet.
- Locate and remove the air filter (usually at the back or side of the unit).
- Clean the filter using a vacuum cleaner to remove dust, or wash it gently with lukewarm water and mild detergent.
- Allow the filter to dry completely before reinserting it into the unit.
Condensate Drainage:
In cooling and dehumidification modes, water will accumulate inside the unit. The unit has a built-in water collection system. When the tank is full, the unit may stop operating and display an error code. You will need to drain the water manually.
- Place a large, shallow pan or container under the drainage outlet at the bottom rear of the unit.
- Remove the drain plug to allow water to flow out.
- Once drained, replace the drain plug securely.
- For continuous drainage in high humidity environments, you can connect a suitable hose to the continuous drainage port (if available) and direct it to a floor drain.
General Cleaning:
- Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, or solvents.
- Ensure the unit is completely dry before plugging it back in.
Storage:
If storing the unit for an extended period, ensure it is completely drained of water, cleaned, and the filter is dry. Store it in a cool, dry place, preferably in its original packaging.
