Cleaning Filter/Honeycomb - Honeywell CL30XC Owner's Manual

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE FILTER AND HONEYCOMB
•
The appliance is supplied with carbon filter & honeycomb
cooling media.
•
Always keep the Carbon filter clean. You can wash the
Carbon filter at least twice a year or whenever you feel
necessary.
•
The carbon filter and honeycomb media are located inside the
back panel. Open the back panel by using a star screw driver
to clean or replace the carbon filter or honeycomb media. It is
recommended that the carbon filter and honeycomb media be
replaced every year, depending on use and environment.
•
Draining the water reservoir and refilling with fresh water at
least once a week will greatly reduce mineral deposits in the
pads and help to extend the life of Honeycomb cooling media.
•
Do not run the unit in COOL mode with stale water in the tank.
You must empty the water tank and refill with fresh water,
especially if the tank has not been cleaned in a long time.
•
The cleaning frequency for the Honeycomb media depends
on local air and water conditions. In areas where the mineral
content of water is high, mineral deposits may build up on the
honeycomb cooling media and restrict air flow. Draining the
water reservoir and refilling with fresh water at least once a
week will help reduce mineral deposits. If mineral deposits
remain on the Honeycomb media, the media should be
removed and washed under fresh water. The media should be
cleaned every two months or sooner, depending on your needs.
•
For best results allow the honeycomb cooling media to dry
after each use by turning off the cool function 15 minutes
before turning the unit off.
