18.2 Decommissioning
Turn off the main power switch (3) and the humidity switch (4). Turn off the rear power switch (20). Dis-
connect the unit from the power supply. Remove the water installation.
After turning off the unit by the main power switch (3), always close the tap used for the water
supply.
•
Temporal decommissioning: See indications for appropriate storage, chap. 3.3.
In case of a prolonged temporal decommissioning: Leave the unit door open or remove the access
port plugs. For several weeks out of service, we recommend turning on the unit every 3 days and op-
erating it about 30 minutes in the cooling mode. This will ensure a quicker restart.
•
Final decommissioning: Dispose of the unit as described in chap. 18.3 to 18.5.
