WARNING:
• Be sure to unplug the unit before cleaning or servicing.
• Do not use gasoline, thinner, or any other chemicals to clean the unit.
• Do not wash the unit directly under a tap or by using a hose; it can cause electric shock or start a fire.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be repaired only by the manufacturer or by one of its service agents.
THE AIR FILTER:
Because the filter accumulates and extracts dust, it should be cleaned once every two weeks to maintain high
quality fan operation.
Removing the Air Filter:
1) Grasp the air filter's tab with your fingers.
2) While grasping the tab, pull the filter outward (away from the unit) and then
upward to remove it.
Washing the Air Filter:
1) Wash the air filter by immersing it gently in warm water, at about 40°C (104°F)
using a neutral detergent.
2) Rinse the filter and then dry it in a shaded location.
Reinstalling the Air Filter:
1) Attach the air filter to the filter cover using the attachment hooks located on the inner surface of the filter
cover.
2) Return the air filter to the rear of the unit.
THE UNIT ENCLOSURE:
Cleaning the unit enclosure:
1) Use a lint-free cloth, soaked with a neutral detergent, to clean the outside of the unit.
2) Finish cleaning the enclosure by wiping it with a dry, clean cloth.
Storing the Unit or Leaving It Idle:
If you plan to leave the unit idle for a log period of time (e.g., putting it away for a season, going on vacation,
etc.) follow the proceeding instructions:
Note: The unit must be drained of any water that has been collected inside. The water is drained from the unit
with the assistance of gravity (there is no pump); either a drain hose or a pan or pot (placed under the lower
drain outlet) will have to be used to collect the water as it is drained. A garden hose (locally purchased) can
also be used if a floor drain is available.
Airing Out the Unit:
To prevent the formation of mold or odor while the unit is not being used:
1) Place the unit in a warm room.
2) Run the unit in fan mode for half a day.
Putting the Unit Away:
1) Stop the appliance and unplug it.
2) Wind the power cord around the hooks provided on the bottom rear of the unit.
3) Clean the air filter (See instructions above).
4) Disconnect the exhaust and intake hoses and store them safely by the unit for future use.
