CLEANING THE AIR FILTERS
To keep your air conditioner working efficient-
ly, you should clean the dust filter every week
of operation.
The filter is housed in the intake grille.
To clean the filter, proceed as follows
1. Remove the dust filter by extracting it
upwards (figure H).
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust accu-
mulations from the filter. If it is very dirty, immer-
se in warm water and rinse a number of times.
The water should never be hotter than 40°C
(105°F ). After washing, leave the filter to
dry, then put back in place.
START OF SEASON CHECKS
Make sure the power cable and plug are
undamaged and properly grounded.
Follow the installation instructions precisely.
END OF SEASON OPERATIONS
To empty the internal circuit completely of
water, remove the cap (figure I).
Run off all water left into a basin. When all the
water has been drained, put the cap back in
place.
Clean the filter and dry thoroughly before
putting back.
