7.1 ORDINARY START-UP AND MAINTENANCE

2
After connecting the unit to the pipe system and after filling the coil, bleed any residual air
in the system by opening the air bleed valves located near the external water connections
3
at the top of the unit (see enclosure 4, fig. 2).
Before starting the system, check the proper opening of the valves and the absence of
water leaks from the pipes. Verify that the condensate is duly evacuated by spilling some
4
water into the pan (see encl. 1/A, 1/B, 1/C point 10) and the correct running of the regula-
tion and control devices.
5
The cleaning and maintenance to be carried out by the user cannot be done by
children without supervision.
6
The user has to be sure that the fan coil operates by respecting the operational
limits and each operation for installation and/or maintenance must be executed
by qualified personnel only.
7
Before servicing the filter or the electrical system and, in any case, before
8
removing the housing, make sure that the unit has been disconnected from the
power mains. The housing must be remounted before the unit is reconnected
to the power mains.

7.1.1 CLEANING THE AIR FILTER

10
Cleaning the filter is a very important activity of ordinary maintenance of a fan coil; if it is clogged,
the fan coil will have lower capacity and higher sound levels.
+
Cleaning the filter must be done at regular intervals, depending on real functioning and on the
amount of dust in the area where the unit is installed; in any way, it is advised to do it at least
once a month: clean with a normal vacuum cleaner and if dust stubbornly adheres to the filter
due to humidity or to greasy deposits, wash the filter with a solution of neutral detergent and
water.
If the air filter is damaged, replace it.
Removing filter
The filter can be easily reached in models with casing; the access to the filter in concealed
models depends on the specific installation.
