MAINTENANCE
•
Turn the appliance off and unplug from
the outlet before cleaning.
• Make sure the unit is disconnected from all
voltage before proceeding with mainte-
nance. This avoids the risk of electric
shock.
• Never use chemical solvents (such as ben-
zene and alcohol) to clean the surface of
the unit. This could scratch or damage the
surface or even distort the external part.
• Use water with delicate detergents or a
soft cloth only to clean or dry plastic parts.
• To clean the condensation tank, remove
and completely empty it of water. Clean
with neutral detergents, rinse and dry tho-
roughly.
Then replace in the original position.
AIR FILTER
If the air filter is blocked by dirt or dust, the
flow of air diminishes, reducing the perfor-
mance of the appliance and leading to mal-
function. The air filter must be cleaned and/or
washed at least once every two weeks.
1. Open the air filter holder grill by pulling it
towards the outside.
2. Remove the filter from the filter holder gril-
le.
3. Wash the air filter by immersing it delicately
in warm water (no more than 40° C)
(104°F) with neutral detergent, rinse and
dry completely in the shade.
4. Replace the dry filter in the grill, fastening it
with the pins on the inside surface of the
grille.
5. Replace the grille on the unit.
END OF SEASON PROCEDURE
1. Turn the appliance off and disconnect
from the outlet by unplugging from the
outlet.
2. In models with a continuous condensation
drain tube only, before emptying the con-
densation from the tank, remove the cap
from the plastic tube to enable water in the
tube to flow into the tank, then operate the
unit in fan mode for half a day to ensure that
the inside of the unit is completely dry.
3. Empty the condensation water from the
tank, clean and dry
4. Wind the power cable around the cable
winder, then cover the appliance with a
cover or bag and store in a dry place.
