CARE AND CLEANING

Your air conditioner is designed for year-round operation with only minimal cleaning and maintenance.

For maximum efficiency, it is recommended that you have the cooling coils inspected and cleaned annually. Your local LG Authorized Service Center can provide this inspection and cleaning service for a nominal fee.

• Unplug the air conditioner before cleaning or performing any maintenance or servicing.
• Be careful when cleaning coils or removing or reinstalling the filter — the cooling fins are sharp!

Failure to follow the above precautions could result in electric shock or personal injury.

EMPTYING THE WATER COLLECTION TANK

This product has a self-evaporative system. The condensing water will be recycled to cool the condenser. This not only improves cooling efficiency, but also saves energy for you.

Using the Upper Drain Port (Dry Mode Only)

• This can be used when you need dehumidification in high humidity.
• The upper drain port is not used in the Cool or Fan mode.
• Remove the drain plug when using the Dry (dehumidifying) mode.
• Install a drain hose (16mm [5/8"] inside diameter) and place the open end of the hose over a drain or bucket or out the window.

Using the Lower Drain Port

When the internal water collection tank is full, the LED display will show E5 and the air conditioner will turn off until the tank is emptied.

• Unplug the air conditioner, disconnect the exhaust hose from the back, and move the air conditioner to a suitable dram location or outdoors. You may also place a pan under the drain that will hold up to 2 pints of water.
  
• Remove the drain cap from the drain outlet.
• Once the water collection tank is drained, reinstall the drain cap, making sure it is on securely.
• Place the air conditioner in the desired location, reconnect the exhaust hose, and plug in the air conditioner.

NOTICE If the E5 error appears in the display:
The water collection tank is full. Unplug the air conditioner, drain the tank, then plug the air conditioner back in and restart it.

NOTE: After the air conditioner is unplugged, it defaults to the Cool mode with a temperature setting of 75ºF (24ºC) once restarted.

CLEANING THE CASE

Wipe the case with a slightly damp cloth, then wipe dry with a dry cloth or towel.

• To prevent damage to the finish, do not use gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc„ or any abrasive cleansers to clean the air conditioner; they may damage the finish.
• Never pour water onto or into the air conditioner. It could damage internal components and create a shock and fire hazard.

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

The air filters should be cleaned every two weeks; depending on indoor air quality, more frequent cleaning may be needed. A dirty air filter will decrease airflow and reduce efficiency.

Do not operate the air conditioner without the air filters in place.

1. Pull out each air filter by the handle.
   
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean the filters. If the filters are heavily soiled, they can be washed in warm water using a mild detergent.
   Do not use harsh cleaners or very hot water. Do not wash in a dishwasher.
3. Allow the filters to dry completely before reinstalling.
4. Reinsert the filters.

STORING THE AIR CONDITIONER

If the air conditioner will not be used for an extended period of time:

1. To drain the water collection tank completely, eave the bottom drain cap off long enough to allow any residual water to drain out. Once the tank is completely drained and no more water flows out, reinstall the cap.
2. Remove and clean the filters, allow them to dry completely, then reinstall them.
3. Remove the batteries from the remote.
4. Store the air conditioner in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and excessive dust.

Before using the air conditioner again:

1. Make sure the filters and drain cap are in place.
2. Check the power cord to make sure it is in good condition, with no cracks or damage.
3. Place new batteries in the remote.
4. Install the air conditioner as described in the Installation Instructions.

The circuit breaker should be tested periodically by pressing the TEST button then the RESET button. the TEST button does not cause the circuit breaker to trip, or if the RESET button will not stay engaged, unplug the air conditioner immediately and contact your LG service technician.
