Note:
If the humidity in the room exceeds 85% (RH), a
condensate drainage hose (see section "6.10") is
absolutely essential.
ALL OF THE CONDENSATE MUST BE DRAINED
OFF BEFORE YOU EVER RELOCATE OR STOP
USING THE DEVICE.
Note:
When the condensate tray is full the compressor and
the fan motor shut down. The "W.F." LED flashes
and a signal sounds. The signal can be disabled by
pressing any button. The unit will then be shut down
completely.
When this happens, empty the tray as described
below:
1. Switch off the unit, pull the plug and do not move
the unit.
2. Push a container under the drain screw (1).
3. Unscrew the drain screw (1).
4. Remove the rubber bung (2) from the drain
opening (3).
5. The condensate runs into the container. If the
container is smaller than the condensate tray,
seal the drain opening (3) with the rubber bung
(2) and empty the container. Then repeat the
process from point 4.
6. Once the condensate tray has been completely
emptied, fit the bung (2) and the drainage screw
(1) again.
7. Start the unit again. The "W.F." LED will no
longer flash.
6.12 Draining the condensate with a hose (Fig. 9-

2. Unscrew the drain screw (1).
3. Remove the rubber bung (2) from the drain
opening (3).

7. Cleaning, maintance and
ordering of spare parts
To avoid an electric shock or risk of fire,
always pull out the mains plug first before
starting any cleaning work .

7.1 Cleaning the air filter

The air conditioner is fitted with 2 filters.
1. Dust filter (close-meshed filter net)
2. Activated carbon filter (binds particles in the air
and prevents the development of bacteria)
Important: Never use the device without air filters.
1) Dust filter
Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the dust filter gently to
remove the dust. If the filter is very dirty, wash it
carefully with warm water. Then allow to dry
thoroughly.
2) Activated carbon filter
The activated carbon filter is located behind the top
dust filter and cannot be washed. Its service life is
dependent on the operating conditions. The filter
should be inspected and replaced if necessary. The
filter cover then has to be fitted back on the device
with the activated charcoal filter.

7.2 Cleaning the housing

Use only gentle cleaner and a soft cloth to clean
the housing. Never use aggressive media, petrol,
alcohol or thinner. Only fit the filter back in place
when thoroughly dry.

7.3 At the end of the season

At the end of the season, let the device run for
approx. 3 hours in the fan function (FAN).
Then roll up the power cable and store it in the
compartment (Figure 11/Item 1) at the back of
the equipment.
Place a suitable container beneath the
condensate drain and remove the plug. The
trough then empties (see Chapter 6.11).
Re-insert the plug in the condensate drain.
Important: If the plug is not inserted or is not
inserted correctly, water will escape the next time
the device is used again.
Clean the filter and the housing.
Re-insert the filter when thoroughly dry.
Store the device in an upright position, preferably
packed in the original box, in a dry and dust-tight
location.
