Before cleaning or maintenance, always turn the
unit off by placing the selector in the “O” position
and unplug from the mains.
CLEANING THE EXTERNAL UNIT
We recommend cleaning the unit with a sli-
ghtly damp cloth then drying with a dry cloth.
For safety reasons, do not wash the air condi-
tioner with water.
Precautions
Never clean with benzene, alcohol or sol-
vents. Never spray liquid insecticide or similar.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTERS.
To maintain the air conditioning unit at peak
efficiency, you are recommended to clean
the anti-bacteria filter weekly.
The air purification filters are located behind the
two intake grilles.
To clean the filters:
1.Remove the intake grilles by rotating them
outwards. (see fig. F)
To remove dust deposited on the anti-bacte-
ria filter, use a vacuum cleaner. If very dirty,
rinse repeatedly in warm water at a tempera-
ture of not more than 40° C.
After washing,dry the filter.To replace,put the
filters back into the filter holder, then hook the
latter to the unit.
Your machine is predisposed for use with FIL-
TRETE filters which remove impurities up to 0.1
micron in size, filtering particles of every kind,
even bacteria. If necessary you can buy this
product separately as a replacement part in
authorized service centers.
