CLEANING THE CABINET

You should clean the appliance with a slightly damp cloth then dry with a dry cloth. For safety reasons, never wash the air conditioner with water.

Attention! Never use petrol, alcohol or solvents to clean the appliance. Never sprayinsecticide liquids or similar.
CLEANING THE BIO SILVER AIR FILTER
The BioSilver filter helps capture dust and pollen and helps reduce the growth of bacteria and mold on the filter.
If the filter is dirty, air circulation is compromised and the efficiency of the appliance decreases. It is therefore good practice to clean the filter at regular intervals.
The frequency depends on the duration and conditions of operation. If the unit is used constantly or systematically, you are recommended to clean the filter once a week.
The filter is housed in the intake grille.
To clean the filter, extract as shown in fig. 11.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the dust collected on the filter. If it is very dirty, immerse in warm water and rinse a number of times. The water should never be
hotter than 40°C.
After washing the filter, allow it to dry completely before repositioning it.
START OF SEASON CHECKS
Make sure the power cable and plug are undamaged and the earth system is efficient.
Follow the installation instructions precisely.
END OF SEASON OPERATIONS
To drain all water from the circuit, remove the external cap by unscrewing it in the anticlockwise direction (fig. 12) and allow the water to drain out into a basin. When the appliance is empty, replace the caps.
Clean the filter and dry it thoroughly before putting it back.
