Performing

annual

maintenance

,

Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure steady, top performance throughout the year. Call the service company recommended by your dealer to: l Inspect and clean the coils and condensate water passages. l Check fan. The compressor and fan motor are sealed and need no oiling. The expense of an annual inspection is the customer�s responsibility. OR If you are familiar with electrical appliances, you can do the cleaning and maintenance yourself. If you choose to do so, follow these steps: NOTE: Do not lift, push, or pull any white beaded foam (expanded polystyrene) parts. 1. Unplug the power cord. 2. Remove air conditioner from window. 3. Remove the front panel. (See �Cleaning the front panel and air filter� on page 7.)

Electrical Shock Hazard Unplug power cord from outlet before servicing. Be sure no liquid gets into the motor, electrical control box, or compressor terminals. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, electrical shock, or serious injury.

Excessive Weight Hazard Use 2 or more people to move and install air conditioner. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
