HowtoAttach DrainPan(Optional)
The air conditioner employs a proper drain method whereby the condensed water (moisture
removed from the air) is drained to the outside,
In very humid weather, (and for reverse cycle models in the reverse mode) excessive condensate
water removed from the air may cause some water to _llecL To remove this excess water you can
install the drain pan as detailed below
1 Take the drain pan which is located in the air discharge,
2 Remove the hole rubber from the base-pan (for some
m_eis).
3. Install the drain pan to the right corner of the cabinet with 4 (or
2) screws.
4. Connect the drain hose of 3/5" inside diameter to the outlet
located at the bottom of the drain pan.You can purchase the
drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs.

Air Filter Cleaning
The air filter should be checked at least twice a month to see if cleaning is necessary. Trapped
panicles in the filter will build up and block the airflow. This reduces the cooling capacity and
also causes an accumuiation of frost on the cooling coils.
1, Open the inlet grille upward by pulling out the bottom of the inlet griile.(a)
in another case, you can open the inlet gdile downward by pulling out the top of the inlet gdlle.(b)
2. Remove the air filter from the front grille assembly by pulling the air filter up or down slightly
3. Wash the filter using lukewarm water below 40_ (104°F).(c)
4. Gently shake the ex_ss water from the filter completely. Replace the filter.
