TIPS FOR CORRECT USE To get the best from your air conditioner, follow these recommendations: • Close the windows and doors in the room to be air conditio- ned (fig. 31). When installing the air conditioner semi-permanently, you should leave a door slightly open (as little as 1/2 ") to guarantee correct ventilation. • Protect the room from direct exposure to the sun by partially closing curtains and/or blinds to make the appliance much more economical to run (fig. 32); • Never rest objects of any kind on the air conditioner; • Do not obstruct the air intake and outlet (fig. 33). Leave both grilles free; • Make sure there are no heat sources in the room. • Never use the appliance in very damp (laundry rooms for example). • Never use the appliance outdoors. • Make sure the air conditioner is standing on a level surface. If necessary, place the castor locks (R) under the wheels. 31 close doors and windows 32 close curtains 33 AIR PURIFYING FILTERS The appliance is fitted with a dust filter which retains impurities in the air drawn in from the room. Certain models also include other filters with a high filtering capacity, namely a silver ion filter and a 3M® electrostatic filter. SILVER ION FILTER The silver ion filter not just retains dust particles, but also has an efficient antibacterial action. It also greatly reduces concentrations of irritants such as pollen and spores. The filter is treated with small particles of silver (on the scale of millionths of a millimeter) which are able to block the multiplication of and kill any nearby bacteria or spores. 3M® ELECTROSTATIC FILTER The 3M® electrostatic filter retains the finest dust particles, thus enhancing the filtering capacity of the appliance. FITTING THE FILTERS TO THE GRILLE The appliance can be used with just the dust filter already inserted in the grille. To use the two supplementary filters (if provided with your model), remove them from the packaging and attach them to the dust filter, inserting them under the special clips (fig. 34). If you decide not to use them, keep them sealed in the packaging. do not cover the appliance 34 Sfiillvteerr ion 3M® filter 15
