3. SIMPLE MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
- Unplug the appliance or switch off the dedicated switch
before performing any operations (risk of personal injury
from electrocution).
- Do not touch the air conditioning unit with wet hands (risk
of personal injury from electrocution).
- When cleaning the appliance, do not climb onto a table or
unstable chair (risk of personal injury due to falling from a
height).
- When removing fi lters, take care not to touch any metal
parts, especially the heat exchanger inside the internal unit
(risk of personal injury from cuts).
3.1 Cleaning the fi lters
Cleaning the fi lters regularly is essential for optimal perfor-
mance
of the air conditioning unit. For domestic settings, we recom-
mend that fi lters be cleaned fortnightly.
Dust fi lters
Open the front panel by pushing it upwards at the "grooves" on
the sides (fi g. 1).
Remove the fi lters by pulling them gently downwards (fi g. 2).
Clean them using a vacuum cleaner or wash them in lukewarm
water and neutral detergent. Make sure you dry them thoroughly
before replacing them. Do not leave them exposed to sunlight. Do
not operate the air conditioning unit without the air fi lters.
Air treatment fi lters
Open the front panel and remove the dust fi lters as described
above. Remove the air treatment fi lters from their seat as illus-
trated in fi g. 3.
- Aromatherapy
The fi lter uses the air fl ow passing through the air conditioning
unit to diffuse the desired fragrance within the room. To add
the fragrance, remove the fi lter as described above; pour the
desired amount of scent onto each end of the fi lter and at its
centre; position the fi lter back in its seat.
The ideal amount of scent depends on the type of fragrance
used and individual user preferences: we recommend starting
with small amounts (e.g. 5 ml).
Note: use essential oils specifi cally designed as room fragranc-
es.

3.2 Cleaning the air conditioning unit

Clean the Internal Unit and remote control, if necessary, using a
cloth moistened with lukewarm water (no hotter than 40°C) and
mild soap; do not use solvents or aggressive detergents, insecti-
cides or spray cleaners (risk of damaging or corroding the plastic
parts of the appliance).
Take extra care when cleaning the front panel, as it is very easy
to scratch.
If the External Unit battery is clogged up, remove all leaves and
deposits and then wash off all dust with a water jet or some wa-
ter.
