arrows.on.the.particle.filter.must.point.towards.the.
gas.filter..Do.not.press.onto.the.centre.of.the.filter.
-.it.might.damage.the.filter.paper..Fig..14.
•.. Screw.the.combined.filter.into.the.filter.mounting.
until.it.is.in.contact.with.the.gasket..Then.turn.it.
about.1/8.turn.further.to.ensure.a.good.seal..Fig..
15.
•.. Fit.a.pre-filter.into.filter.holder..Fig..12.
•.. Press.the.pre-filter.holder.onto.the.combined.filter..

fan..Proceed.as.described.above.
2.6 Operation/performance
•.. Start.the.fan.by.pressing.the.control.button..Fig..17.
•.. After.the.button.has.been.pressed,.a.programmed.
test.will.be.run.on.the.fan.unit,.during.which.the.
symbols.on.the.display.will.light.up.and.the.sound.
signal.will.sound.twice..Fig..18.
•.. After.the.internal.test,.all.symbols.will.be.extin-
guished.except.the.small.green.fan.symbol..This.
indicates.normal.operating.status.with.a.flow.of.at.
least.175.l/min.
•.. If.the.button.is.pressed.again,.boosted.operating.
status.will.be.activated,.with.a.flow.at.least.225.l/
min..This.is.indicated.by.the.larger.green.fan.
symbol.lighting.up.
•.. To.revert.to.normal.operation,.press.the.control.
button.once.again.
•.. To.switch.off.the.fan.unit,.keep.the.control.button.
