4. Care and maintenance
Safety precautions
• Contact an authorised service technician for repair or
maintenance of this unit. Improper repair and maintenance
may cause water leakage, electrical shock, or fire, and may
void your warranty.
• Do not
substitute a blown fuse with a higher or lower
amperage rating fuse, as this may cause circuit damage or
an electrical fire.
• Please make sure the drain hose is set up according to
the instructions. Failure to do so could cause leakage and
result in personal property damage, fire and electric shock.
• Make sure that all wires are connected properly. Failure
to connect wires according to instructions can result in
electrical shock or fire.
Unit maintenance
CAUTION
• Always turn off your air conditioning system and
disconnect its power supply before cleaning or
maintenance.
•
Do not
use chemicals or chemically treated cloths to
clean the unit.
•
Do not
use benzene, paint thinner, polishing powder
or other solvents to clean the unit. They can cause the
plastic surface to crack or deform.
•
Do not
wash the unit under running water. Doing so
causes electrical danger.
•
Do not
use water hotter than 40°C to clean the front
panel. This can cause the panel to deform or become
discoloured.
• Clean the unit using a damp, lint-free cloth and neutral
detergent. Dry the unit with a dry, lint-free cloth.
Repairing refrigerant leaks
WARNING
• If the refrigerant leaks, turn off the air conditioner and
any combustible heating devices, ventilate the room and
call your dealer immediately. Refrigerant is both toxic and
flammable.
Do not
use the air conditioner until the leak
is repaired.
• When the air conditioner is installed in a small room,
measures must be taken to prevent the refrigerant
concentration from exceeding the safety limit in the
event of refrigerant leakage. Concentrated refrigerant
causes a severe health and safety threat.
Preparation for periods of non-use
Maintenance after extended non-use
1. Remove any obstacles blocking the vents of both the
indoor and outdoor units.
2. Turn on the main power switch at least 12 hours prior to
operating the unit.
Storing the unit while not in use
1. Run the appliance on FAN mode for 12 hours in a warm
room to dry it and prevent mould.
2. Turn off the appliance.
