Ensure that the remote control does not become hot due to strong sunlight or other heat
sources.
Take the batteries out of the remote control when you foresee that you will not be using it for a
long time.
If you no longer hear a reception signal and no response is shown on the display, the batteries
must be replaced.
There are various buttons on the remote control for modes that are not used in your air
conditioner. Do not try to use these modes. This will disorientate your device.
Safety
The Polar 7000 c.q. Polar 9000 is fitted with an overheating safeguard 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
dispelling sufficient air?
You can then use the device normally again but keep an eye on it for the first 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
recognised electrician to check/repair the unit.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Note! Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance work on the air
conditioning 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-
impregnated 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 filters
Clean the filters once every two weeks; a unit with dirty filters will
never work properly.
Take both filters out of the device by pulling the flaps forward to
open them and then lifting the filters out of the fastener, see
illustration.
Use a vacuum cleaner or gently beat the filter to remove loose dust
and dirt.
Rinse the filter with tepid water (not hotter than 40°C) with a mild,
neutral cleaning product.
Let the filters dry thoroughly in the shade before replacing in the
unit.
Take care! Never use the air conditioning unit without the filters!
