Care and Maintenance
Cleaning the Unit:
Wipe the unit with a soft dry cloth. If the unit is very dirty, clean it with a damp, lint-free cloth soaked in warm
water and neutral detergent. Dry the unit with a dry, lint-free cloth.
The power supply must be disconnected before attempting any kind or service and most
cleaning procedures (removal and cleaning of the air filter is the only exception)!
Before performing maintenance, turn the power off to the unit and then disconnect the power
to the circuit at the breaker. Failure to do this could cause electrical shock and injury.
DO NOT attempt to perform any repairs on the unit. Contact an authorized service
technician. Improper repair could cause water leakage, electrical shock, fire, and could void
the warranty.
DO NOT substitute a blown fuse with a higher or lower amperage fuse than what is specified
for your application. Using an improperly rated fuse could cause circuit damage and/or an
electrical fire.
DO NOT operate the unit or perform any maintenance if the drain hose is not installed and
set up properly according to the instructions. Failure to do this could result in leakage,
property damage, fire, and/or electric shock.
DO NOT operate the unit or perform any maintenance if the wires are not connected
properly according to the instructions. Failure to properly connect the wires could result in
electrical shock and/or fire.
CAUTION
CAUTION
DO NOT use benzene, thinner, polishing powder, or similar solvents for cleaning. These
could cause the plastic to deform and/or crack.
DO NOT clean the unit with excessive amounts of water or wash the unit under running
water, as it could create an electrical hazard.
DO NOT use a chemically treated cloth or duster to clean the unit.
DO NOT clean the unit with combustible cleaning agents. These could cause fire and/or
deformation of the unit.
DO NOT wash the front panel with water hotter than 104°F (40°C). Doing this could cause
the panel to deform or become discolored.
DO NOT use water to clean the inside of the unit. This can destroy the insulation and cause
electric shock.
