These models also come with a purifying
filter (double active) to be fitted by the user
(See "Fitting the purifying filter").
The purifying filter further purifies the air in
the room which passes through the
appliance.
When the purifying filter is fitted, the
appliance's cooling capacity may drop
slightly. This is particularly the case when
the filter is saturated or worn. It is,
therefore, recommended that you check
and change the filter at least once a year
or when the "change filter" symbol
displayed. These accessories are available
for purchase from the Manufacturer's
Official Technical Service and authorised
distributors (See "Description of
accessories").
