CLEANING THE HONEYCOMB COOLING MEDIA
•
The appliance is supplied with Honeycomb Cooling Media.
•
The Honeycomb Cooling Media is located inside the back panel.
Open the back panel by using a star screw driver to clean or
replace the Honeycomb Cooling Media. It is recommended
that the Honeycomb Cooling 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 Cooling 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 Cooling
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.
