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. Call your local authorized dealer  
for an annual checkup. Remember… the cost of this service call  
is your responsibility.  
Cleaning the Air Filter  
The air filter is removable for easy cleaning. A clean filter helps  
remove dust, lint, and other particles from the air and is important  
for best cooling and operating efficiency. Check the filter every  
2weeks to see whether it needs cleaning.  
NOTE: Do not operate the air conditioner without the filter in  
place.

TROUBLESHOOTING  
You can solve many common air conditioner problems easily, saving you the cost of a service call. Try the suggestions below to see  
whether you can solve your problem without outside help.  
The air conditioner is in a heavily occupied room, or heat  
Air conditioner will not operate  
producing appliances are in use in the room. Use exhaust vent  
fans while cooking or bathing and try not to use heat producing  
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.  
The power supply cord is unplugged. Plug into grounded  
3-prong outlet. See “Electrical Requirements.”  
The power supply cord trips (Reset button will pop out).  
Press and release RESET (listen for click; Reset button will  
latch and on some devices, a green light will turn on) to

tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. See  
“Electrical Requirements.”  
The Mode is set to Power Saver (on some models). Use  
Power Saver only when you are away from home or asleep,  
since the fan does not circulate the room air continuously.  
Use Low, High or Turbo for your best comfort.  
Depending on model, the Power button has not been  
pressed or the Fan Speed control is turned to Off. Press  
POWER button or turn the FAN SPEED control to an active  
setting.  
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 local power has failed. Wait for power to be restored.  
The filter is dirty or obstructed by debris. Clean the filter.  
Air conditioner blows fuses or trips circuit breakers  
The inside evaporator and outside condenser coils are  
dirty or obstructed by debris. See “Annual Maintenance.”  
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.”  
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 heat  
producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.  
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 the unit off. Wait at least 3 minutes after turning the  
unit off before trying to restart the air conditioner.  
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 65°F (18°C). Do not try to  
operate your air conditioner in the cooling mode when the  
outside temperature is below 65°F (18°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.  
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.  
Windows or doors to the outside are open. Close all  
windows and doors.  
The Exhaust control is set to OPEN (on some models).  
Push the Exhaust control CLOSED for maximum cooling.  
An electrical overloading, overheating, 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.  
Depending on model, the Temp/Time or 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 or adjust the TEMPERATURE  
control to a cooler setting by turning the knob clockwise. Set  
the FAN SPEED control to highest setting.  
NOTE: A damaged power supply cord must be replaced with a  
new power supply cord obtained from the product manufacturer.  
A damaged power supply cord must not be repaired.  
Water drips from cabinet into your house  
Air conditioner seems to run too much  
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.  
The current air conditioner replaced an older model. The  
use of more efficient 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 units, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling  
capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and  
capacity rating (in BTU/hr.) marked on the air conditioner.  
NOTE: Do not drill a hole in the bottom of the metal base and  
condensate pan.
