Be sure to unplug the unit before cleaning to prevent shock or fire hazards. Air Filter Cleaning The air filter should be checked at least once a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped particles in the filter can build up and cause an accumulation of frost on the cooling coils. Be sure filter is thoroughly dry before replacing Or instead of washing, you may vacuum the filter clean. Cabinet Cleaning Be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may be dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the air conditioner. Plug in air conditioner. Winter Storage If you plan to store the air conditioner during the winter, remove it carefully from the window according to the installation instructions. Cover it with plastic or return it to the original carton. Energy Saving Ideas Do not block air flow inside with blinds, curtains or furniture; or outside with shrubs, enclosures, or other buildings. The capacity of the room air conditioner must fit the room size for efficient and satisfactory operation. A window that faces north is best because it is shaded most of the day. Close the fireplace damper, floor and wall registers so cool air does not escape up the chimney and into the duct work. Keep blinds and drapes in other windows closed during the sunniest part of the day. Clean the air filter as recommended in the section "Care and Cleaning". Proper insulation and weather stripping in your home will help keep warm air out and cool air in. External house shading with trees, plants or awnings will help reduce the air conditioner's work load.
