CHECKING FOR LEAKS
Every three months, or as specified by local or state laws, you should check your unit for
leaks. As with any mechanical equipment, general use, moving the unit and vibration can
cause fittings to loosen.
1. Turn off the MAIN POWER switch, and disconnect the power cord from the
outlet.
2. Remove the front shroud by removing the 16 threaded screws on the front of the
unit.
3. Use a leak detector to probe all fitting connections for refrigerant leaks. Tighten
fittings if a leak is indicated.
4. Replace the shroud.
