LEANING THE AIR FILTERS
To keep your air conditioner working efficiently, you should clean
the dust filters every week of operation.
Dust filter supplied with all models
The filter is housed in the intake grille.
To clean the filters, proceed as follows:
•
Remove the intake grille by pulling it outwards (fig. 35).
•
Remove the dust filter by detaching it from the grille (Fig. 36).
•
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust collected on the
filter. If it is very dirty, immerse in warm water and rinse a num-
ber of times. The water should never be hotter than 101°F
(40°C).
•
After washing, leave the filter to dry completely.
•
To replace, put the filters back in the intake grille then attach
the intake grille to the appliance.
Silver ion filter and 3M® electrostatic filter
(certain models only)
These two filters are located behind the dust filter.
To clean the dust filter, the two supplementary filters must be tem-
porarily removed.
To clean, use a vacuum cleaner at medium power.
The silver ion filter
can be washed
with cold water. Leave to dry
completely and replace. It should be replaced at least once
every two seasons.
The 3M® filter
is not washable
and must replaced at the end of
the season or when it is exhausted and no longer efficient.
The silver ion filter and 3M® filter can be bought from shops
selling De'Longhi accessories or authorized service centers.
