3. Reinstall the filter
After the filter has dried completely, reinstall back into the air conditioner.
Notes: ● Clean the filter at least every three months.
● Do not touch the metal fins in the air conditioner after removing the filter
as they may cause personal injury.
● Do not attempt to dry the filter with a hairdryer or other heating elements
as this may deform or ignite the filter.
● Do not operate the air conditioner if the air filter is missing.
2. Clean the filter
After removing, use the dust attachment of your
vacuum to suck up any dirt or warm water mixed
with a mild detergent. A soft bristle brush may
help remove some of the dirt, if needed.
