2. Clean the filters using a slightly damp, soft, lint-free cloth. If the filters are heavily contaminated, clean them with warm water mixed with a neutral cleaning agent.
3. Allow the filters to dry completely. Do not put any wet filters into the device!
4. Reinsert the air filters into the device.
3. Drain the condensate. 4. Reinsert the rubber stopper in the condensate outlet and
reattach the sealing cap. Ensure the tight fit of the rubber stopper, for otherwise there might be uncontrolled water leakage.
Condensate discharge (manual draining)
In cooling and dehumidification mode condensate is formed, which is mostly discharged via the exhaust air.
The remaining condensate is collected in a container within the housing. The condensate ought to be drained regularly.
If too much condensate accumulates, the device switches off and indicates this via the P1 error code on the segment display (15). 1. Carefully transport or wheel the device to a suitable
location for discharging the condensate (e.g. a drain) or position a suitable collection container under the condensate outlet. 2. Remove sealing cap and rubber stopper from the condensate outlet.
ð The P1 error code on the segment display (15) will disappear as soon as the condensate has been drained.
Activities required after maintenance
If you want to continue using the device: · Leave the device to rest for at least 12 hours, so the
refrigerant can accumulate within the compressor. Wait 12 hours before switching the device back on! Acting contrary might lead to compressor damage and a malfunctioning device. Any warranty claims will be voided in this case.
· Reconnect the device to the mains.
If you do not intend to use the device for a considerable time: · Store the device according to the Transport and storage
chapter.
