directed left-right.
A. 2-Way Air Flow
Normal Sounds
When your air conditioner is operating normally, you may hear
sounds such as:
■ Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a pinging or
clicking sound. The water droplets help cool the condenser.
■ Air movement from the fan.
■ Clicks from the thermostat cycle.
■ Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.
■ A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern
high-efciency compressor cycling on and off.
AIR CONDITIONER CARE
Your new air conditioner is designed to give you many years of
dependable service. This section tells you how to clean and care
for your air conditioner properly.
Cleaning the Air Filter
The air lter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean lter helps
remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is
important for best cooling and operating efciency. Check the
lter every 2 weeks to see whether it needs cleaning.
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the lter in
place.
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Remove the air lter by opening the front panel and removing
the air lter.
12 13
A. Air lter
B. Front panel
3. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean air lter. If the air lter is very
dirty, wash it in warm water with a mild detergent. Do not
wash the air lter in the dishwasher or use any chemical
cleaners. Air dry the air lter completely before replacing to
ensure maximum efciency.
4. Replace the air lter.
5. Close the front panel.
6. Turn on the air conditioner.
Cleaning the Front Panel
1. Turn off the air conditioner.
2. Clean the front panel with a soft, damp cloth.
3. Air dry the front panel completely.
4. Turn on the air conditioner.
Annual Maintenance
Your air conditioner needs annual maintenance to help ensure
steady, top performance throughout the year. Call your local
authorized dealer to schedule an annual checkup. The expense
of an annual inspection is your responsibility.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
Before calling for service, try the suggestions below to see whether you can solve your problem without outside help.
Air Conditioner Will Not Operate
■ The power supply cord is unplugged. Plug into a grounded
3 prong outlet. See “Electrical Requirements.”
■ The power supply cord has tripped (Reset button has
popped out). Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset
button will latch and on some devices, a green light will turn on)
to resume operation.
■ A household fuse has blown, or circuit breaker has
tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. If the
problem continues, call an electrician. See “Electrical
Requirements.”
■ The Power button has not been pressed or the Mode
control knob is turned to Off. Press POWER or turn the
Mode control knob to an active setting.
■ The local power has failed. Wait for power to be restored.
Air conditioner blows fuses or trips circuit breakers
■ Too many appliances are being used on the same circuit.
Unplug or relocate appliances that share the same circuit.
■ Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker of the wrong capacity
is being used. Replace with a time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker of the correct capacity. See “Electrical
Requirements.”
■ An extension cord is being used. Do not use an extension
cord with this or any other appliance.
■ You are trying to restart the air conditioner too soon after
turning off the air conditioner. Wait at least 3 minutes after
turning off the air conditioner before trying to restart the air
conditioner.
Air conditioner power supply cord trips (Reset button
pops out)
■ Disturbances in your electrical current can trip (Reset
button will pop out) the power supply cord. Press and
release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will latch and on
some devices, a green light will turn on) to resume operation.
■ Electrical overloading, overheating, cord pinching or aging
can trip (Reset button will pop out) the power supply cord.
After correcting the problem, press and release RESET (listen
for click; Reset button will latch and on some devices, a green
light will turn on) to resume operation.
NOTE: A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a
new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer
and must not be repaired.
Air conditioner seems to run too much
■ The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The
use of more efcient components may cause the air conditioner
to run longer than an older model, but the total energy
consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not emit
the “blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to from older
air conditioners, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling
capacity or efciency. Refer to the efciency rating (EER) and
capacity rating (in Btu/h) marked on the air conditioner.
■ The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or
heatproducing appliances are in use in the room. Use
exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use
heatproducing appliances during the hottest part of the day. A
higher capacity air conditioner may be required, depending on
the size of the room being cooled.
Air conditioner cycles on and off too much or does not
cool room in cooling mode
■ The air conditioner is not properly sized for your room.
Check the cooling capabilities of your room air conditioner.
Room air conditioners are not designed to cool multiple rooms.
■ The lter is dirty or obstructed by debris. Clean the lter.
■ There is excessive heat or moisture (open container
cooking, showers, etc.) in the room. Use a fan to exhaust
heat or moisture from the room. Try not to use heatproducing
appliances during the hottest part of the day.
■ The louvers are blocked. Install the air conditioner in a
location where the louvers are free from curtains, blinds,
furniture, etc.
■ The outside temperature is below 61°F (16°C). Do not try to
operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when the outside temperature is below 61°F (16°C).
■ The temperature of the room you are trying to cool is
extremely hot. Allow extra time for the air conditioner to cool
off a very hot room.
■ Windows or doors to the outside are open. Close all
windows and doors.
■ The Temperature control is not at a cool enough setting.
Adjust the TEMP/TIME control to a cooler setting by
pressing the minus button to reduce the temperature. Set the
Fan Speed control to the highest setting.
Water drips from cabinet into your house
■ The air conditioner is not properly leveled. The air conditioner
should slope slightly downward toward the outside. Level the
air conditioner to provide a downward slope toward the
outside to ensure proper drainage. See the Installation
Instructions.
NOTE: Do not drill a hole into the bottom of the metal base
and condensate pan.
