Important Information
Before connecting your appliance
❏
Read the instructions book before using the
appliance for the first time. It contains
important information concerning not only
how to use the appliance, but also
maintenance and personal safety.
❏
Keep this instructions book. It may be
needed by another user at a later date.
❏
Do not use the appliance when damaged.
❏
Your appliance should be assembled and
connected to the mains electricity supply in
accordance with the assembly instructions
and current regulations. You may lose your
warranty if you fail to observe these
instructions.
❏
Our appliances are manufactured in
accordance with current safety regulations.
Only technicians instructed in these matters
are authorised to repair them. Your safety is
at stake.
❏
It is recommended that you follow the
manufacturer’s instructions concerning the
air expulsion tube (see "Preparing the
appliance before use") in order to prevent
efficiency loss and unnecessary energy
consumption.
❏
Avoid sharp bends on the air expulsion tube
and do not lengthen it more than necessary.
❏
When expelling hot air through sliding
windows, install the accessory which
prevents hot air entering the room from
outdoors and enhances efficiency.
❏
Make sure that the diffusion duct is
positioned in such a way that the window
can be closed as far as possible in order to
prevent air from outdoors entering the room.
❏
Check that the sleeves (collection and
diffusion) are correctly joined to the air
expulsion tube. See "Ways of releasing air
outdoors".
❏
Make sure that the air intakes and outlets
are not obstructed. Keep them clean and
free of dirt, dust and foreign objects.
❏
Make sure that the filters fitted on your
appliance are clean and installed properly
(see "Cleaning and Maintenance").
❏
In the summer, ventilate the building when
the air outdoors is at its coolest (early
morning, night).
❏
Make sure that the drainage plug is fully
inserted. It may have come loose during
transportation, Fig. 1.
