Select the "Fan" mode to allow the IDU to run for a period of
time and dry it.
Turn off the power supply and the circuit breaker, and take out
the battery in the remote controller.
The internal components of the ODU should be inspected and
cleaned regularly. Please contact Clivet local air conditioner
customer service center or a designated technical service
center.
Complete the following steps before the air conditioner is set aside
for a long time.
3. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Open the air inlet grille.
3. Clean the air filter.
Use a dust collector or water to clean the air filter.
Press with both thumbs
at the same time.
For a four-way cassette unit, press the two grille locks with both
hands at the same time, and pull out the air inlet grille downwards.
2. Remove the air inlet grille (with air filter, see the figure below), open
the grille downwards to about 45°, and raise it upwards to remove it.
Wipe the air outlet and panel with a dry cloth.
If a stain is hard to remove, clean it with clean water or neutral
detergent.
Some metal edges and condenser fins are sharp and incorrect
handling can cause injury. Therefore, be careful when cleaning
these parts.
Check the air outlets and air inlets of the ODU regularly to see if
they are blocked by dirt or fumes.
When the filter is too dusty, clean it with a soft brush and neutral
detergent, and dry it in a cool, shady place.
4. Put the air filter back.
5. Perform the above mentioned steps 1 and 2 in reverse order to
install and close the air inlet grille, and connect the control box lead to
the corresponding electrical wire connector of the master unit.
For safety reasons, always turn off the air conditioner and turn
off the power before cleaning the air conditioner.
For air conditioners with auxiliary heaters, the auxiliary heater
is secured between the wind turbine and the heat exchanger
of the IDUs using screws and the minimum gap with the
flammable surface is 12 mm. The user is prohibited from
disassembling and repairing the part. Otherwise, a fire or
other dangers may occur.
WARNING
Disconnect the control box lead and electrical wire connector
of the master unit.
CAUTION
The air filter can filter dust and other particles in the air. A
blocked air filter can result in reduced performance of the air
conditioner. When the air conditioner is used often, remember
to clean the air filter regularly.
If the IDU is installed in dusty places, increase the frequency of
cleaning the air filter screen.
If the air filter is severely stained and difficult to wash, replace it
(optional accessory).
CAUTION
Do not use gasoline, benzene, volatile agents, decontamination
powder and liquid insecticides. Otherwise, the air outlet or panel
may de-color or deform.
Do not expose the inside of the IDU to moisture, as it may result
in electric shock or fire.
When cleaning the air guide with water, do not scrub it violently.
If the air conditioner is used without the air filter screen, dust will
be deposited in the air conditioner because it is not separated
from the indoor air, which will cause faults.
CAUTION
Check the air inlet and outlet of the ODU and IDU after long
periods of use to see if they are blocked; if an inlet/outlet is
blocked, clean it immediately.
CAUTION
Clean with a dust collector with the air inlet surface upward.
Clean with water with the air inlet surface downward.
