Performing annual maintenance
Your air conditioner needs annual mainte-
nance to help ensure steady, top performance
throughout the year.
Call the service company recommended
by your dealer to:
l Inspect and clean the coils and conden-
,
sate water passages.
l Check fan.
The compressor and fan motor are sealed
and need no oiling. The expense of an
annual inspection is the customer’s
responsibility.
