Remove the louver screws (3) and check the air filter at least twice a month. When
clogged, remove the air filter. Use warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter.
Replace the air filter in its correct position.
2. Condenser
The condenser must be cleaned at least once a year. More frequent cleaning may be
required in some conditions.

electric shock, do not touch the plug with damp hands.
2) Remove the screws (4) securing the front panel, then pull and lift the front panel out
slightly to remove it. See Fig. 39.
NOTICE!

cleaner to gently clean the condenser
fins. Do not use too much force, otherwise
the fins could be damaged.
