• G4 and F7 unit filters every 3 months
• Optional external filter every 6 months
• Optional room filter every 2 months

Changing G4 and F7 unit filters

If the two middle ventilation level LEDs flash on the control unit, a filter change is due. Additionally, the LED lights up white on the control unit. This function is only enabled with the status display activated.

Recommendation: Change the unit filters together.

Read the supplementary safety instructions before removing the front cover.
