Care and maintenance
Regular care and observation of some basic points
will ensure trouble-free operation and a long
service life.
DANGER!
Prior to performing any work, ensure the equip-
ment is disconnected from the voltage supply
and secured to prevent accidental switch-on!
n
Clean the unit using a damp cloth. Do not use
a jet of water.
n
Do not use any caustic, abrasive or solvent-
based cleaning products.
n
Only use suitable cleaning agents, even in the
event of severe soiling.
n
Ensure that no moisture gets into the unit.
Clean the exhaust air and outlet openings reg-
ularly and thoroughly. This is where dirt most
often collects first
NOTICE!
Check the level of dirt on the on the exchanger
fins.
n
Clean the unit's air filter at regular intervals,
more frequently if necessary.
n
It is recommended that you take out a mainte-
nance contract with an appropriate specialist
firm.
This enables you to ensure the operational reli-
ability of the plant at all times!
Filter cleaning
The unit is equipped with an air filter. This can be
pulled out on the front side of the unit (Fig. 14).
The filter must be cleaned at regular intervals. We
recommend cleaning every 100 operating hours.
Reduce this interval in the case of heavily contami-
nated air.
1.
Switch the unit off and pull out the power
plug.
2.
The filter is behind the front air intake grille.
This grille can be folded out forward. Then
pull out the filter (Fig. 14).
3.
Clean the dust off the filter. Use a vacuum
cleaner in the event of slight soiling. (Fig. 15).
4.
In the case of heavy soiling clean the filter
carefully in lukewarm water. (Fig. 16).
5.
Subsequently allow the filter to dry in the air.
6.
Insert the filter back into the device.
7.
Ensure that the filter is dry and undamaged.
NOTICE!
Never operate the air conditioner without an
original filter. The heat exchanger fins will be
contaminated without the filter and the unit will
suffer performance loss.
