CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
For safety’s sake, be sure to turn the air conditioner OFF
and also disconnect it from the power supply before cleaning it.
1. Cleaning of the Air Filter.
The air filter must be checked at least once every two weeks opera-
tion. Operation with a dirty filter always causes a lower efficiency of
the air conditioner and severe product damage.The filter is located
at the back of the intake grille and shall be removed from the right
side of the unit. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If there
is sticky dust on the filter, wash it with lukewarm soapy water, then
rinse in clean, cold water and dry it before reinstallation.
2. Cleaning of Casing and Grille.
To clean the air conditioner, wipe it with a clean soft cloth, lightly
moisted. In case it is stained, moisten the cloth with soapy water.
Never use solvents or harsh chemicals, nor very hot water. Do not
pour water over the air conditioner to clean it: this will damage the
internal components and cause an electric shock hazard.
3. Storage.
If you are not going to make use of the air conditioner for a long
period, before storing it away clean the air filter and verify that the
internal water tank is empty. Always store the unit in the vertical
position. Do not put heavy objects on top of the unit and protect it
with a cloth or a plastic bag.
4. Transport.
Preferably keep the air conditioner in the vertical position during
transportation. If this is not possible, then lay it on one side; when at
destination put the air conditioner back in the vertical position and
wait at least 10 minutes before using it for cooling.
5. For your safety care check periodically the conditions of the
electric supply cable and in case you should notice any dam-
age due to usage call the nearest After Sale Service and get
the cable replaced.
If your air conditioner doesn’t work properly, before requesting service, verify that:
●
the plug is properly inserted into the power socket;
●
the circuit breaker is in the ON position and fuses have not blown;
●
the air filter is not clogged;
●
the flexible tube is correctly positioned without any sharp bends nor plies;
●
the thermostat knob is in the proper position for the suitable temperature (twisting it clockwise verify the compressor re-
start, after the delayed time);
●
the room temperature is above 15°C for cooling mode and 10°C for dehumidification mode;
●
you have correctly carried-out the instructions contained in this manual.
