Cleaning and Maintenance
Emptying
condensed water
For safety reasons, you should unplug the
appliance from the mains electricity supply
before cleaning it.
The appliance can be cleaned with a cloth or
sponge, slightly warm water and a mild
detergent.
Never use hot water (more than 40ºC), bleach,
petrol, acid, scouring pads, brushes or strong
detergents. Prevent water from entering the
appliance.
Do not clean the appliance with a water hose or
compressed air.
Condensed water collected by dehumidification can
be stored in the removable tank or piped to an
external receptacle or drainage system.
Water in the removable tank
To collect the condensed water produced during
dehumidification in this tank, set the drainage
stopcock to the position indicated in figure Fig. 9.
As the tank is transparent the water level can be
checked at any time. When the level reaches its
maximum level, however, the machine stops and
the relevant indicator light on the control panel
lights up.
This light also comes on when the tank has not
been fitted properly.
In either case, remove the tank and carefully pour
its contents down the drain. Carry the tank as
shown in Fig. 10.
Water to an external receptacle or drainage
system
If you wish the water produced during
dehumidification to be collected in an external
receptacle, set the drainage stopcock to the
position indicated in Fig. 11 and remove the plug
from the central nozzle. Insert one end of the
rubber pipe provided as an accessory onto the
nozzle, Fig. 1, and lead the other end of the pipe
into a receptacle, drainage system, etc..., Fig. 12.
