Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance is an essential step in maintaining the longevity of your evaporative
cooler and ensuring that it operates free of defects. Maintain your evaporative cooler by following these
steps:

       Always unplug the evaporative cooler from the power supply before servicing or cleaning.
       Use a soft cloth and a mild soap and warm water solution to clean the unit’s exterior. Do not use
        harsh cleaners, gasoline, paint thinner, benzene, etc., as these substances can damage the
        evaporative cooler.
       Thoroughly dry all of the cooler’s parts with a soft cloth before reconnecting the unit to the power
        supply.
       Empty the water tank after the evaporative cooler has been in use.
       If the evaporative cooler will not be in use for an extended period of time, place the unit back in its
        original carton and keep it stored in a clean, dry place.
       To clean the cooling pads of any debris or dust, remove the pads from the panels and rinse them
        with clean water. Allow them to thoroughly air dry before placing them back into the unit.
