Before cleaning or maintenance, switch off the
appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button (A)
and always unplug it from the mains supply.
CLEANING THE EXTERNAL UNIT
We recommend cleaning the appliance with
a slightly damp cloth. It should then be dried.
For safety reasons, do not wash the air-condi-
tioner with water.
Precautions
Never clean with benzene, alcohol or sol-
vents. Never spray with liquid insecticide or
similar.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTERS
To maintain the air-conditioning unit at peak
efficiency, we advise you to:
1. Clean the dust filter weekly.
The filters are located behind the two intake gril-
ls. The grills contain the filters.
To clean the filters:
1. Remove the intake grills by rotating them
outwards. (fig 11)
2. Remove the dust filter by detaching it from
the external grill.
BEGIN OF SEASON CHECKS
Check that the power cord and plug are
undamaged and that the appliance is pro-
perly earthed.
The installation instructions should be observed
meticulously.
END OF SEASON OPERATIONS
Empty the water from the tank.
Remove the tank (9) and empty it. To drain
any residual water from the internal circuit,
remove the stopper (11) from the drain tube
(10) and drain completely. Re-insert the stop-
per and re-position the tank correctly (9).
Clean the anti-bacteria filters and dry well
before replacing.
C l e a n i n g
To remove the dust deposited on the anti-
bacterial filter, use a vacuum cleaner. If very
dirty, immerse in warm water (not more than
104° F) and rinse thoroughly.
Allow the filter to dry. To replace, fit the filters
to the intake grill and attach to the applian-
ce.
