Recommended maintenance and
inspection
Since dust collects when using the unit for several years,
performance of the unit will deteriorate to some extent. As taking
apart and cleaning interiors of units requires technical expertise and
in order to ensure the best possible maintenance of your units, we
recommend to enter into a maintenance and inspection contract on
top of normal maintenance activities. Our network of dealers has
access to a permanent stock of essential components in order to
keep your unit in operation as long as possible. Contact your dealer
for more information.
When asking your dealer for an intervention, always state:
▪ The complete model name of the unit.
▪ The manufacturing number (stated on the nameplate of the unit).
▪ The installation date.
▪ The symptoms or malfunction, and details of the defect.
WARNING
Do NOT modify, disassemble, remove, reinstall or repair
the unit yourself as incorrect dismantling or installation may
cause an electrical shock or fire. Contact your dealer.
