Clean the filter and let the filter dry completely in a shaded area.

component damage and molds. Unplug the unit and place it in a dry open area for days to dry it
out. Another way to dry the unit is to set the humidity point more than 5% higher than the ambient
humidity to force the fan to dry the evaporator for a couple of hours.
