If you ignore this advice, the equipment as a whole
may overheat and shut down. This could result in
damage to the equipment.
Important!
The length of the exhaust air hose is matched to the
technical specifications of the device. Never extend
the hose as this could lead to malfunctions or faults
on the device. Under certain circumstances a partial
vacuum may develop in the room, which will lead to
a reduction in the cooling performance of the device.
To prevent this from happening you must ensure that
there is a supply of air to the room (leave the door to
the room slightly open).
Fitting the exhaust air hose through an open
window (Fig. 6)
Use the exhaust air adapter for the window and the
extendible window adapter. Slide the exhaust air
adapter for the window over the exhaust air hose.
Open the window slightly and clamp the window
adapter in the gap. Secure the window so that the
window adapter is kept firmly in place. Insert the
exhaust air adapter for the window in the opening
provided in the window adapter.
Note: Take appropriate precautions to
prevent unauthorized entry through the
window.

7. Condensate return

For the cooling mode the device is fitted with a
condensate return unit. When the system is in
operation the condensate is collected in a trough
(approx. contents 1.2 liters) integrated in the device.
From there it is evaporated by the condenser and
transferred outside by the exhaust air hose.
When the trough is full, the equipment switches off
automatically and the LED "FULL" comes on.
Proceed as follows (Fig. 7):
Unplug the device.
Place a suitable container beneath the
condensate drain (1) and remove the plug (2).
The trough then empties.
Reinsert the plug in the condensate drain. The
device is now ready for operation again.

Note: Under normal circumstances the condensate
trough never becomes full in cooling mode.
However, if this should happen, please contact
your customer services workshop.

8. Cleaning by the end user

To avoid an electric shock or risk of fire,
always pull out the mains plug first before
starting any cleaning work .
A) Cleaning the air filter (Fig. 8)
The air conditioner is fitted with a filter.
Important: Never use the device without air filters.
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.
B) 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.
C) 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
storage compartment provided at the back of the
device.
Place a suitable container beneath the
condensate drain and remove the plug. The
trough then empties (see Chapter 7).
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.
