CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
We suggest cleaning the appliance with a damp cloth and then
drying it.For safety reasons, do not wash the air conditioner with
water.
Precautions
Do not use gasoline, alcohol or solvents for cleaning.Do not spray
liquid insecticides or similar substances.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER OR SILVER-ION AIR FILTER
(only on some models)
To maintain the eciency of the air conditioner, it is recom-
mended to clean the dust lter after every week of use.
The lter is located near the intake grille. Remove the grille to
access the lter. To clean the lter, it will need to be extracted as
shown in g. 23-24.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust deposited on the lter.
If it is very dirty, submerge it into warm water and rinse it several
times. The water temperature must be kept below 40° C.
After washing the lter, allow it to dry.
To replace, put the lter back in its housing.
If present, the silver-ion air filter not only retains powder parti-
cles, but also performs an efficient antibacterial action. In addi-
tion, it greatly reduces irritants such as pollen and spores.
The filter is treated with small particles of silver (with dimen-
sions equal to millionths of a millimetre) which are able to
block the multiplication of bacteria and spores when in contact
with them, and therefore encourage their destruction.
CHECKS AT THE START OF THE SEASON
Make sure the power cable and socket are in perfect condition
and make sure the earthing system is ecient.Comply strictly
with the installation standards.

closed.
Clean the lter as indicated previously. The lter must be com-
pletely dry before reinserting it.
