When the condenser coils are dusty or dirty, use a vacuum cleaner with an extension
attachment.

Important information about moving your
appliance
Your appliance is heavy. When moving the unit for cleaning or maintenance,
cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to prevent damaging your floor.
You should always pull the unit straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or
“walk” the appliance when trying to move it, as this can cause floor damage.
