Cleaning the Air Washer (18 – 19)
• Regular cleaning is essential for hygienic,
fault-free operation, despite the Cleaning
mode.
• Recommended cleaning intervals depend on
air and water quality as well as operating
time.
• The Air Washer can easily be taken apart for
cleaning without tools.
Danger! Disconnect from the mains!
The Air Washer must be emptied
completely and cleaned if the unit
filled with water has not been in
operation for longer than a week.
Remove the ISS from the bottom
base before cleaning (20).
Only use CalcOff for decalcification
and cleaning of the product. Damage
that is caused by the use of other
cleaning agents is not covered by
the warranty.
Cleaning mode (20 – 28)
Cleaning mode enables simple cleaning and
decalcification of the humidifier discs and the
water tank. Humidification does not take place
when the appliance is in Cleaning mode. The
fan remains deactivated and only the
humidifier discs rotate.
Before switching the appliance to Cleaning
mode, the water base must be filled with hot
water and the decalcification agent CalcOff
(21). Pressing and holding button A
for 5 seconds switches the appliance to
Cleaning mode (22).
Cleaning mode is shown in the display by
flashing symbol E (23). The value "1h" flashes
in the display. Button B can be used to change
the cleaning period from 1 to 9 hours,
depending on the level of soiling (23).
After 3 seconds without further input, the set
value is taken as the "desired value" and
flashing display F changes back to
"CURRENT". The cleaning period is now
permanently displayed and switches to
minutes when the time remaining falls below
the 1 hour mark. The cleaning period can be
changed at any time by pressing button B.
At the end of the cleaning period, the
display shows the value "0h" and cleaning
symbol E flashes faster (24). Pressing button
A ends the Cleaning mode and switches off
the appliance (24). The water base must now
be emptied of the CalcOff and rinsed (25–27)
(see section "Cleaning the water tank and
bottom base"). The next time the appliance is
switched on, it will operate in normal mode.
Do not clean the soiled humidifier
discs in the dishwasher!
Cleaning the water tank and water base –
every 2 weeks (29 – 34)
• Remove deposits from the water base with
a plastic or wooden brush and a diluted
commercial dish detergent.
• Put the Air Washer back together after
cleaning in the opposite order.
Cleaning the housing –
once or twice annually (35)
• First clean the housing with a damp
cleaning rag and wipe it dry; if necessary,
use plastic cleaning agent.
• Wipe out the inside of the housing top
assembly with a damp cleaning rag.
