! WARNING
FIRE, EXPLOSION, ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND CUT HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death or property damage.
1. TURN OFF ELECTRICAL POWER TO YOUR UNIT BEFORE SERVICING OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE.
2. When removing access panels or performing maintenance functions inside your unit, be aware of sharp sheet metal parts and screws. Although special care is taken to reduce sharp edges to a minimum, be extremely careful when handling parts or reaching into the unit. Wear safety glasses, gloves and appropriate protective clothing.

Air Filters The air filter(s) should be checked every 3 or 4 weeks and changed or cleaned whenever it becomes dirty. Dirty filters produce excessive stress on the blower motor and can cause the motor to overheat and shut down.
This unit must have air filters in place before it can be operated. These filters can be located in one of at least two places. In many applications, the installer will provide return air filter grilles mounted on the wall or ceiling of the conditioned structure. In the instance of filter grilles, the filters can simply be removed from the grille and replaced.
Table 1 indicates the correct indoor filter size for your unit.

If you have difficulty locating your air filter(s) or have questions concerning proper filter maintenance, contact your dealer for instructions. When replacing filters, always use the same size and type of filter that was supplied, originally, by the installer.

! CAUTION
UNIT OPERATION HAZARD Failure to follow this caution may result in property damage. Never operate your unit without filters in place. An accumulation of dust and lint on internal parts of your unit can cause loss of efficiency and blower motor and/or compressor damage.

Fans and Fan Motors Periodically check the condition of fan wheels and housings and fan-motor shaft bearings. No lubrication of condenser-or evaporator-fan bearings or motors is required or recommended.
Indoor and Outdoor Coils Cleaning of the coils should only be done by qualified service personnel. Contact your dealer for the required annual maintenance.
Condensate Drain The drain pan and condensate drain line should be checked and cleaned at the same time the cooling coils are checked by your dealer.
Compressor All compressors are hermetically sealed and do not require periodic maintenance.

Condenser Fan
! WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY AND UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death or property damage. Do not insert sticks, screwdrivers, or any other object into revolving fan blades.
The fan must be kept free of all obstructions to ensure proper cooling. Contact your dealer for any required service. Electrical Controls and Wiring Electrical controls are difficult to check without proper instrumentation. If there are any discrepancies in the operating cycle, contact your local dealer and request service. Refrigerant Circuit The refrigerant circuit is difficult to check for leaks without the proper equipment. If inadequate cooling is suspected, contact your local dealer for service.
! WARNING
EXPLOSION, BURN AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury, death or property damage. System under pressure. Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system repair or final unit disposal. Use all service ports and open all flow-control devices, including solenoid valves.
Unit Panels After performing any maintenance or service on the unit, be sure all panels are fastened securely in place to prevent rain from entering unit cabinet and to prevent disruption of the correct unit airflow pattern.
Regular Dealer Maintenance (Also refer to Table 2)
In addition to the type of routine maintenance you might be willing to perform, your unit should be inspected regularly by a properly trained service technician. An inspection (preferably each year) should include the following:

1. Inspection and, if required, cleaning of the indoor coil condensate
   drain. 2. Inspection and, if required, cleaning of the evaporator drain pan.
2. Inspection and cleaning of blower wheel housing and motor. 4. Inspection of all supply-air and return-air ducts for leaks,
   obstructions, and insulation integrity. Any problems found should be resolved at this time. 5. Inspection of the unit base to ensure that no cracks, gaps, etc., exist which may cause a hazardous condition. 6. Inspection of the unit casing for signs of deterioration. 7. Inspection of all electrical wiring and components to ensure proper connection. 8. Inspection for leaks in the refrigerant circuit. Pressure-check to determine appropriate refrigerant charge. 9. Operational check of the unit to determine working conditions. Repair or adjustment should be made at this time.
