Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your air conditioner. Always unplug the unit before cleaning.

1. Cleaning the Air Filter

The air filter, located on the back of the unit, should be cleaned every two weeks or more frequently depending on usage and air quality.

1. Turn off the unit and unplug it from the power outlet.
2. Gently remove the filter panel and pull out the filter.
3. Clean the filter using a vacuum cleaner to remove dust. For heavy dirt, wash it with lukewarm water (below 40°C) and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly.
4. Allow the filter to dry completely before re-installing it. Do not expose it to direct sunlight.
5. Slide the dry filter back into its position and close the panel.

2. Draining Condensate Water

The Dolceclima Compact 10P features automatic condensate drainage. However, in high humidity conditions or during dehumidification mode, manual drainage may be required if the internal tank fills up. The unit has two drainage outlets: one higher for continuous drainage and one lower for complete tank emptying.

1. Turn off the unit and unplug it.
2. Place a shallow pan or container under the drainage outlet.
3. Remove the rubber stopper from the drainage outlet. Water will begin to flow out.
4. Once all water has drained, replace the rubber stopper firmly.
5. For continuous drainage, connect the provided drainage hose to the higher drainage outlet and direct it to a suitable drain.

3. Cleaning the Unit Exterior

Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, or solvents, as these can damage the surface.
