warning

Performing annual maintenance

Your air conditioner needs annual mainte­

nance to ensure steady, top performance

throughout the year. Call the service com­

pany recommended by your dealer to:
• Inspect and clean the coils and conden­

sate water passages.

• Check fan and fan motor.

The compressor arxl fan motor are sealed
and need no oiling. The expense of an
annual inspection is the cortsumer’s respon­
sibility.

OR

If you are familiar with electrical appliances,

you can do the inspection and maintenance
yourself. If you choose to do so, follow these
steps:

1. Disconnect power cord from receptacle.

2. Remove the front panel. (See “Cleaning

the front panef on page 7.)

3. Slide unit out of cabinet using the handles

on the base flange.

4. Be careful rwt to break off or remove

white or gray beaded foam parts. Some
are marked “Do not remove.”

Electrical Shock Hazard

before performing any maintenance.
Be sure no liquid gets into the rrK>tor,
electrical control box, or compressor
electrical terminals.

• Do not lift, push, or pull any white or

gray bead^ foam (expanded polysty­
rene) parts.

• Because your air conditioner weighs

from 80 to 200 pounds, it is recom­

mended that you have someone help

you when you remove or reinstall
your unit and that you both use proper
lifting techniques.

• Handle the air conditioner with care.

Watch out for the sharp metal fins on
the front and rear coils.

• Do not use the collected water for

drinking purposes. It is not sanitary.
