11- MAINTENANCE

Before proceeding to clean the unit, ensure that the entire unit and the magnetothermal switch are unplugged.
11.1- CLEANING THE AIR FILTERS
The air filter eliminates the dust absorbed from the room into the indoor unit. If the filter becomes obstructed,
the air conditioner's efficiency will be reduced, the indoor unit's battery could freeze up and the compressor
could be damaged. It is recommended that the air filter be cleaned regularly to prevent this from happening.
Remove the air filters and use a vacuum cleaner to remove any dust or dirt that may be in the filters, or clean
them with cold water.
After cleaning, ensure that the filters are dried completely before putting them back into the unit.
Do not attach perfume or anti-odour systems, etc. to the filters or the indoor air reflux as this could damage
or soil the evaporator battery. If necessary, all these systems at the unit's exit point and only ensure they only
run when the fan is on.

11.2- CLEANING THE INDOOR UNIT

Wipe the outer part of the unit with a dry cloth. Regularly remove dust from the inlet surface. Do not clean any
of the electrical parts using water. Do not use petrol, solvents or polishes when cleaning.

11.3- CLEANING THE OUTDOOR UNIT

Wipe the outer part of the unit with a dry cloth. Regularly remove dust from the inlet surface. Do not clean any
of the electrical parts using water. Check and clean the condenser battery regularly with a soft brush if the unit
is located in a dusty atmosphere (Remember that this should always be done with the unit switched OFF).

11.4- GENERAL CARE INSTRUCTIONS

If you are not intending to use the unit for a few days: Put the fan into operation for three or four hours in order
to dry the inside of the unit; stop the unit and disconnect the magnetothermal switch; clean the air filters; and
remove the batteries from the remote control.
Before turning the unit back on, check the following: that the air filters are alled, that the air inlet and outlet are
not blocked up, that the remote control is fitted with batteries and that the differential switch is connected.
Occasionally check the base of the outdoor unit. If the base is damaged or deteriorated, the unit could fall
down and cause physical or material damage.
We advise you to contact a reliable air conditioner specialist or the Saunier Duval Official Technical Services
to contract a preventative maintenance service. This will help to prolong the life of your air conditioner and
improve its performance.
