How would you go about cleaning this air conditioner? I have something similar to this in my window now, but it's been in the window through winter and it's time to clean it out. I've taken two of the three air conditioners to the car wash and cleaned them out that way, but since this one has a digital function, I was told that I probably won't be able to clean it the same way as the two traditional ones. It really needs to be cleaned since the air coming out occasionally has an odor.

There should be a filter you can remove and clean, but if the air has an odor I would be cautious of any molds. It may have to be replaced.

Oce, thank you for your inquiry! For cabinet cleaning be sure to unplug the air conditioner to prevent shock or fire hazard. The cabinet and front may be dusted with an oil-free cloth or washed with a cloth dampened in a solution of warm water and mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry. Never use harsh cleaners, wax or polish on the cabinet front. Be sure to wring excess water from the cloth before wiping around the controls. Excess water in or around the controls may cause damage to the air conditioner. Plug in air conditioner. We welcome you to view this information in your use and care guide.
