EXTERIOR CLEANING

1. Use a soft cloth and a mild soap and warm water solution to clean the
unit’s exterior. Do not use harsh cleaners, gasoline, paint thinner, benzene, etc., as these substances can damage the evaporative cooler.
2. Thoroughly dry all of the cooler’s parts with a soft cloth before
reconnecting the unit to the power supply.

DUST FILTER & COOLING PAD CLEANING

To prevent the cooling pad and filter from becoming clogged with dust, mineral deposits and other buildup, we recommend that it be cleaned at least once a month.
1. Remove the dust filter from the
back of the unit by pushing down on the two tabs located above the filter and pulling it out. Gently scrub it with a soft brush and rinse with water.
2. While the dust filter is off,
remove the cooling pad frame from the back of the unit. Rinse the pad with clean water to remove dust. For a more thorough cleaning, use a diluted vinegar solution to wash the pad. If necessary, immerse the pad in the diluted vinegar solution for 30 seconds to remove hard water buildup. Be sure to rinse the pad thoroughly with clear water to remove vinegar residue.
3. Allow the filter and the cooling pad to air dry completely before replacing
them in the unit.

WATER TANK CLEANING

The water tank should be emptied regularly to ensure hygienic use. To empty the tank:
1. Unlock and pull open the water tank.
2. Place a small dish beneath the extended water tank.
3. Remove the white plug from the bottom of the water tank to allow water
to drain out into the dish.
4. When empty, replace the plug in the drain. Be sure it is secure to avoid
leaking.
In addition, the tank should be cleaned several times a year to remove hard water and mineral deposits. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe out the interior of the tank. For excessive hard water buildup, use a diluted vinegar solution and rinse thoroughly afterwards.

WATER PUMP MAINTENANCE

Hard water buildup can affect the performance of the cooler’s water pump. To prevent malfunctions, clean the pump and internal tubing with a calcium and lime cleaning product (such as CLR) at least once a season.
1. Empty any water from the tank.
2. Pour the cleaner into the water tank so the pump is covered.
3. With the tank closed, allow the pump to soak for 10 to 20 minutes.
4. Remove the cooling pad from the back of the unit.
5. Run the cooler for 30 seconds. This will circulate the cleaning solution
through the pump and tubing to remove any leftover mineral deposits. Do not operate longer than 30 seconds, or damage might occur to other parts of the cooler.
6. Rinse the tank and fill it with clean water. Run it for several minutes
without the cooling pad in place to ensure the cleaning solution has been rinsed away.
7. Replace cooling pad and dust filer and operate unit as normal.
