Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your air cooler.

The internal filter can accumulate dust and mineral deposits, leading to reduced efficiency and potential odors. Refer to the manufacturer's guidelines for filter cleaning or replacement. If a bad odor develops, inspect and clean or replace the filter immediately.

Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage:
