General Safety Instructions (Cont.)
Usage conditions and restrictions
• Intended purpose: This appliance has been made for air conditioning
domestic environments and must not be used for any other purpose, such
as for drying clothes, cooling food etc. Only use the air conditioner as
instructed in this manual.
• Alterations: Do not alter the characteristics of the appliance in any way.
• Common sense: These instructions are not intended to cover every possible
condition and situation. As with any electrical household appliance, common
sense and caution are therefore always recommended when installing,
operating and maintaining the unit.
• Usage restriction: This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
• Children: Supervise children to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• Dust filter: Always use the air conditioner with the air filter mounted. Using
it without dust filter could cause an excessive accumulation of dust or
waste on the inner parts of the device with possible subsequent failures.
• Temperature selection: Selecting the most suitable temperature can
prevent damage to the unit.
• Exposure to cold air flow: Never remain directly exposed to the flow of
cold air for a long time, as direct and prolonged exposure to cold air from
the air conditioner could be dangerous for your health. Take particular care
in rooms where there are children, old or sick people.
• Air flow direction: The airflow direction must be properly adjusted. The
flaps must be directed downwards in heating and upwards in cooling mode.
• Plants and animals: Do not direct the airflow onto plants or animals, as
long and direct exposure to cold air from an air conditioner could adversely
affect them.
• Do not block openings: Do not obstruct the air inlet or outlet of the indoor
or outdoor unit. Obstructing openings reduces the operating efficiency of
the air conditioner with possible consequent failures or damages.
• Keep clear: Do not climb onto or place any objects on top of the unit.
• Do not insert objects: Never insert a stick or similar object into the
appliance. It could cause injury.
• Maximise efficiency: Do not leave windows or doors open for long when
the air conditioner is operating.
