Regular care and the observation of a number of basic
rules will ensure the units’ long service life and reliable
operation.
à Keep the units free of dirt and other deposits.
à Clean the units with a damp cloth.
Do not expose the units to a direct stream of water.
à Do not use an abrasive cleaning agent or one that
contains solvent.
à If the units are extremely dirty, only use suitable
cleaning materials.
à Before and after the operating season, check
whether the diameter of the condensation lines has
become smaller as a result of dirt.
If so, they must be cleaned.
à Clean the air filters of the indoor unit at regular inter-
vals, more often if necessary, as described on this
page.
Cleaning the filters
Clean both air intake filters on the right and left at inter-
vals of no longer than two weeks. If the air is extremely
dirty, shorten this timeframe accordingly.
Proceed as follows for cleaning:
1. Open the front of the unit by pushing the grille up
and locking it into place.
2. Lift the filters up and then pull them out.
3. Clean the filters using a standard vacuum cleaner.
4. Extreme dirt can be carefully removed with lukewarm
water.
Then let the filters air dry.
5. Replace the filters and close the grille.
Maintenance and Service
Shutting Down the Unit
Temporary shutdown
1. Switch the indoor unit off using the remote control.
2. Disconnect the system with the main switch or fuse
protection from the power supply.
3. Check the indoor unit for visible damage.
4. Clean the indoor unit as described in the
“Maintenance and Service” section.
Never operate the indoor unit without the air filter.
The air filter prevents the plate fin exchanger of the
indoor unit from becoming dirty and the perform-
ance of the unit from being adversely affected.
à We recommend concluding a maintenance agree-
ment with a company who specialises in this type of
work.
This will guarantee that the system operates safely
at all times!
Before any work on the units is performed, they
must be disconnected from the power supply and
prevented from being inadvertently switched on!
