4.1.b - Cleaning the suction filter
To ensure the indoor air is filtered correctly and to guarantee that your air conditioner runs efficiently, it is vital
to clean the air filters regularly (Fig.20).
After a certain amount of time this important maintenance operation must be carried out. It is indicated when
the Fi alarm message appears on the control panel display.
a. Switch off the conditioner and then remove the filters from the conditioner as indicated in figure 20.
b. Wash the filter with a water jet aimed at the side opposite the accumulation of dust.
c. If the dirt is particularly difficult to remove (such as grease or other types of deposit), first immerge the
filter in a solution of water and a neutral detergent.
d. Shake off any water before reinserting the filter.
Provide for the filter (23) replacement if it is damaged.
e. Make sure the filter (23) has dried completely.
f. Correctly reposition the filter (23) in its specific seat.
g. Suck possible fluff from the grille (Fig. 21).
Do not use the appliance without the filter (23).
4.1.c - Recommendations for energy saving
Below find simple recommendations for reducing consumption:
• Always and constantly keep the filters clean (see maintenance and cleaning chapter).
• Keep the doors and windows of the rooms to be climate controlled closed.
• Do not let sun rays penetrate freely into the room (we recommend using curtains or lowering blinds or
closing the shutters).
• Do not obstruct the air flow path (input and output) of the appliance; this, in addition to obtaining a non-op-
timal yield, also affects the correct operation of the appliance and the possibility of irreparable damages to
the appliance itself.
4.2 - MAINTENANCE
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a long period of time, work as follows:
a. Activate the fan only mode for a few hours (approximately 1÷2 hours) to dry the interior of the appliance.
b. Stop the air conditioner and disconnect the power supply.
c. Clean the air filter.
d. Completely discharge condensation.
e. Remove the batteries from the remote control.
Checks before resuming use of the air conditioner:
a. Clean the filters after a long period of inactivity of the air conditioner.
b. Check that the air outlet or inlet are not obstructed (especially after a long period of inactivity of the air
conditioner).
4.2.a - Discharging condensation
When condensation in the lower tray reaches the predetermined level, the appliance emits beeps.
In this case:
a. Disconnect the plug from the power socket.
b. Carefully move the appliance in position suitable to unload water.
c. Remove the drain cap (24) and the rubber cap (24a) (Fig.22).
Make sure you correctly tightened the drain cap (24)
in order to avoid water leak.
