Removes calcium deposit build-up in water of air conditioner/ dehumidifier

Instructions for DeLonghi Pinguino portable air conditioners:

When the scale deposits become excessive (on average, after about 400 hours of operation) or at least once each season, it is very important to proceed with the decalcification of the appliance as described below.

To remove the scale from the appliance, you need:

25% of descaling liquid

75% of clean water

Proceed as follows:

Remove the tank from the appliance and drain the water remaining in the collection

reservoir by using the drainage hose

Close the drainage hose . Pour 450 ml of decalcifying liquid and 1/2 gallon of clean water into the collection reservoir which is found under the tank, on the bottom of the appliance.

Operate the air conditioner for about half an hour.
After this, drain out all of the liquid remaining in the collection reservoir and rinse thoroughly.
During the rinsing process, the drainage hose must be open and the appliance functioning.
Unplug the appliance from the outlet and clean the collection reservoir thoroughly with a clean cloth.
After cleaning the collection reservoir, the air conditioner can be used normally.
IF TRACES OF SUDS CAN BE SEEN IN THE WATER WHEN THE MACHINE IS USED AGAIN AFTER IT HAS BEEN CLEANED AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, THIS IS NORMAL.

HOWEVER, IF THERE ARE A LOT OF SUDS RINSE THE APPLIANCE AGAIN THOROUGHLY TO REMOVE ALL TRACES OF CLEANING PRODUCT.

ATTENTION: The use of products other than De' Longhi could cause damage to the internal components of the appliance and invalidate the terms of the warranty.
