Maintenance and cleaning
To avoid contamination, it is essential to check and change
the bath fluid from regularly.
If water is used for bath fluid, we recommend to add Wa-
ter bath protective media. The protective media stops the
growth of algae, bacteria and other microorganisms with
its bactericidal effectiveness. It protects the bath fluid and
provides a long period of use for the fluid.
To maintain the full cooling performance, maintain the
condenser dust filter from time to time.
• Switch off the device and disconnect mains cable.
• Open the front venting grid.
• Remove the bracket (see Fig. 7).
• Clean condenser dust filter with a vacuum cleaner or wash
the filter in the water and dry the it before assembly.
Don’t touch the heating exchang-
er surface with hard parts.
