monthly functional check
• perfect function of the doors:

- regular filter check (see point 8)
• correct seating and condition of the fire protection seals
In case of damage please contact your dealer in order to have the cabinet repaired using original
spare parts. The cabinets can be cleaned with a mild household cleaner and a soft cloth.
