Recommendations for the disposal of
packaging
Respect the environment when disposing of
the packaging your appliance comes packed
in.
Our products are carefully packed for
transportation. All of the material used in our
packaging is environmentally friendly (the
cardboard is manufactured from used paper)
and may be recycled.
Recycling packaging helps conserve raw
materials and reduces the amount of waste
produced in the world.
Actively help protect the environment by
disposing of packaging properly. Take it to
your nearest local council disposal point or it
may be possible to return it to your supplier.
Packaging material is not a toy. To prevent
the risk of asphyxia, do not let children play
with the cardboard or plastic used for
packaging.
Recommendations for the disposal of
your old appliance
Unplug your appliance from the mains
electricity supply and cut the power cable.
Appliances of this kind include both
recyclable material, which may be used
again, and hazardous products (such as
heavy metals and liquid refrigerants), which
may pollute the soil or the atmosphere.
Actively help protect the environment by
ensuring that your old appliance is disposed
of in accordance with environmentally
friendly practices. Dispose of your appliance
at an official disposal or recycling point (ask
your Local council where the nearest
disposal point is). Appliances of this kind
contain refrigerants which must be disposed
of in accordance with current regulations.
This appliance complies with
European Directive 2002/96/EC
on waste electrical and electronic
equipment. The directive
provides the general framework
valid throughout the European
Union for the disposal and reuse
of waste electric and electronic appliances.

Recommendations for saving energy
Your appliance consumes energy when in use.
The consumption of energy produces an
environmental impact. Energy consumption
can be reduced, enhancing the efficiency of
your appliance. To do this:
Turn your air appliance off when it is not
needed.
Select an ideal temperature; excessively low
temperatures result in high energy
consumption.
Locate your appliance away from possible
heat sources (sunlight, etc.) and in a
position with good air circulation.
Ensure that your appliance is installed
properly. Energy consumption can be cut by
up to 30% by reducing the entry of heat into
the room with awnings, blinds or curtains
over glazed surfaces.
Use the accessories supplied with your
appliance and the specific accessories
described in "Description of accessories" in
order to minimise the entry of air from
outside the room. When using accessories
which require holes to be drilled in walls or
windows, the hole should be as precise as
possible and sealed with silicon, plaster or
similar to prevent air from flowing through
any gaps.
When expelling hot air through sliding
windows, install the accessory which
prevents hot air from outdoors from entering
the room and enhances efficiency.
Make sure that the air intakes and outlets
are not blocked. Keep them clean and free
of dirt, dust and foreign objects.
Make sure that the filters fitted on your
appliance are clean and installed properly
(see "Cleaning and Maintenance").
In the summer, ventilate the building when
the air outdoors is at its coolest (early
morning, night).
