near the front panel arms on both sides, and then remove the panel
by pushing the arms towards the outside while pulling the panel
towards you.
If the front panel is difficult to remove, grasp both ends of it and lift it
up slightly.
Move it to the left and disengage the left arm, then move it to the
right and disengage the right arm.
Remounting
Grasp the sections near the front panel arms on both sides, and
hold the front panel so that it is nearly horizontal. Push the arm
shafts towards the outside so that they come into contact with the
top of the indentations on the right and left sides of the air
conditioner. Then push firmly until the arm shafts click into place.
After closing the front panel, press firmly on the parts indicated by
the arrows to securely fasten the panel in place.
Also refer to the figure that shows “How to replace the filter”.
Washing the front panel with water
Clean the front panel gently using a soft sponge, or the like. Then

Neutral detergent may be used to remove stubborn dirt. Then rinse
thoroughly with water and wipe away any remaining moisture.
