Impaired air circulation increases the internal temperature and can reduce the electrical
endurance of temperature-sensitive components.
The cleaning interval for the air baffle is dependent on the ambient conditions.
• Clean the air baffle more frequently in cases where there is high sand or dust content in the
air (see maintenance report).
