Cleaning the Air Filter
The reusable air filter should be cleaned monthly, or more frequently depending on usage and air quality. A dirty filter can reduce cooling efficiency and airflow.
- Unplug the air conditioner from the power outlet.
- Locate and remove the air filter from the back or side of the unit (refer to the diagram in the unit's casing if available).
- Wash the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly.
- Allow the filter to air dry completely before reinserting it into the unit. Do not use a dryer or direct heat.
- Reinsert the dry filter and plug the unit back in.
Draining Water
During dehumidification or in very humid conditions, the unit will collect water. The unit has a self-evaporative system, but in high humidity, manual draining may be required. Refer to the unit's specific draining port and instructions for your model.
