Safety
The Fuave ACB12K01 and ACB14K01 are tted with an overheating safe-
guard that switches the unit off if it overheats. If this should occur, you must
remove the plug from the socket and leave the equipment to cool for at
least 30 minutes.
Remove the cause of overheating - has the device been (partially) covered?
Is it too close to a wall or another obstacle, preventing it sucking in or dis-
pelling sufcient air? You can then use the device normally again but keep
an eye on it for the rst 30 minutes to ensure there are no further problems.
If the device is showing signs of problems or the overheating recurs, even
though there is no obvious assignable cause, ask your supplier or a recogni-
sed electrician to check/repair the unit.
Cleaning and maintenance
Note! Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance work on the air con-
ditioning unit, always switch off and remove the plug from the socket!
Regular cleaning is vital in order to keep the unit in good
working order!
Cleaning the housing
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the housing.
Never use aggressive cleaning products, petrol, detergent, chemically-im-
pregnated cloths or other cleaning solutions. These could damage the
housing. Never spray the unit and ensure that water never penetrates the
device! Dry the unit with a soft cloth.
Cleaning the lter
Clean the lter once every two weeks; a unit with a dirty lter will never
work properly. The lter can be found behind the air inlet grilles on the side.
You can easily open these grilles and remove the lter. Use a vacuum cle-
aner or gently beat the lter to remove loose dust and dirt. Rinse the lter
with tepid water (not hotter than 40°C) with a mild, neutral cleaning pro-
duct. Let the lter dry thoroughly in the shade before replacing in the unit.
Take care! Never use the air conditioning unit without the lter!
