Filling the Tank and Filter Preparation
Properly filling the water tank and preparing the filter are crucial steps in ensuring your Arctic Air Tower operates efficiently and effectively. Here’s a detailed guide to these processes⁚
Water Tank Filling⁚ Locate the water tank on your Arctic Air Tower, typically on the rear or side of the unit. Unscrew the lid or cap to access the tank opening.
Water Quality⁚ Use clean, fresh water for optimal performance and hygiene. Avoid using tap water with high mineral content, as this can lead to mineral buildup in the tank and affect the cooling efficiency. If your water is known to have high mineral content, consider using distilled or filtered water.
Filling Level⁚ Fill the tank with water, ensuring you do not overfill it. Refer to the water level indicator on the tank or the user manual for the recommended filling level.
Filter Preparation⁚ Locate the filter, often a rectangular or cylindrical cartridge, within the Arctic Air Tower. This filter is essential for the cooling process, as it absorbs water and evaporates it, creating a cooling effect.
Initial Filter Soaking⁚ Before using the Arctic Air Tower for the first time, thoroughly soak the filter under running cold water for a few minutes. This allows the filter to absorb sufficient water for effective cooling;
Freezing for Maximum Cooling⁚ For maximum cooling, you can place the wet filter in the freezer until it is frozen. The frozen filter will provide a longer-lasting cooling effect.
Regular Filter Cleaning⁚ Clean the filter regularly to prevent bacteria buildup and maintain optimal performance. Refer to the user manual for specific cleaning instructions.
