● Keep the air filter clean. (See

instructions on page 5.)

● For most efficient operation,

keep vent in closed position except when you want to let outside air enter the room.

●

Don’t let the room get too hot or too cold. Whenever possible, turn the unit on before the room heats up or cools off. If you don’t, the air conditioner will take longer to produce the desired comfort condition.

they’re open.

● Keep furnace floor registers and

cold air returns closed when cooling is desired. Conditioned air can easily escape through them.
