PART 2 — FILTER INFORMATION
The filter in your Friedrich removes dust, pollen and other impurities from the air as they are drawn through the unit. The
filter is permanent and reusable, and has a germicidal treatment which is not affected by washing.
A clogged, dirty filter reduces the air flow through the unit and reduces its efficiency. You should check the filter every
seven to ten days, depending on the amount your unit is used. Clean the filter regularly.
WON’T COOL
If the unit operates, but doesn’t cool, check to see that the controls are properly set. Inspect the filter and
clean it thoroughly, if needed.
WON’T RUN
If the unit does not operate at all, check that the power supply connections are tight. Check for blown fuses or
tripped circuit breakers. Replace blown fuses with the proper size time-delay fuse. The nameplate on the unit
shows the proper fuse size. After restoring power, wait three minutes before restarting the unit.
INSIDE COIL FREEZES UP
Your Friedrich HazardGard is designed not to freeze with outdoor temperatures as low as 45°F (7°C). Freezing
should only occur when the outside air is damp and below 45°F (7°C). If the indoor coil should ice over while
cooling, set the thermostat to the warmest position until the ice on the coil is gone. Setting the thermostat to a
slightly warmer position will probably keep ice from forming on the coil. A dirty filter will contribute to icing.
CLEANING
The front grille of your Friedrich, as well as the complete cabinet may be cleaned with warm water and a mild
detergent. The coils and base pan should be cleaned periodically for the most efficient operation. We suggest you
call your Friedrich dealer for this service.
LUBRICATION
Fan motors are factory lubricated and sealed. No lubrication is required.
PART 3 — MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST
The filter can be removed for cleaning by opening the
front of the unit and releasing the filter from its retaining
clips.
