Note! The filter is monitored by the current consumption of
the unit. If the unit is continually operated at air flow level 1 or
2, the AEROLIFE-processor will switch to air flow level 5 for
approx. two minutes every 8 hours in order to check the filter
for measuring reasons. The unit then automatically switches
back to the previously set air flow level.

Function
Features
• Simultaneous aeration and deaeration
• Filters pollen and dust
• Filtering of exhaust air
• Heat recovery
• Sound absorption of external noise
• Low internal noise
Ventilation
In ventilation mode, the AEROLIFE aerates and deaerates
simultaneously. To achieve this, the unit has two internal
separate air routes and two separate blower units.
Room air is drawn into the two top air inlets (a), filtered,
guided through the heat exchanger and discharged to the
outside.
Fresh air is drawn from outside, filtered, guided through the
heat exchanger and conveyed into the room through the two
bottom air outlets (b).
a
a
b
b
Ventilation elements
The heat exchanger absorbs part of the heat in the
discharged room air and heats up the fresh air supplied. You
can fold out the heat exchanger to exchange the filter unit in
the heat exchanger.
The filter unit consists of a cassette filter (filter grade F7)
which filters over 97% of the pollen from the fresh air and a
fleece filter which filters the room air. The two filters reduce
the contamination of the heat exchanger and the blower
units. Required filter exchange is indicated by the symbol
„“ in the display of the AEROLIFE.
The performance of the supply air and the exhaust air
blower unit and consequently the air flow is variable in
three levels.
If the AEROLIFE is switched off, the two blower units are out
of operation.

Commissioning
Electrically operated unit.
Risk of fatal injury from electric shock or fire.
› The AEROLIFE is connected directly to the 230-V AC mains power supply. However, the voltage is transformed to 12 V
low voltage in the unit. In case of overload, a safety device (thermal overload protection) in the transformer disconnects
the unit from 230 V AC mains power supply and automatically switches on again when the overload has been rectified.
› A safety switch is also integrated for maintenance purposes. If the front panel is removed, the safety switch cuts off the
supply voltage.
To prevent personal injury or damage to property, always comply with the following instructions:
› The power supply terminals supply 230 V AC even when the front panel has been removed.
› Do not remove the cover of the connecting clamps behind the top housing unit.
Following the successful installation and electrical connection of the AEROLIFE, the unit can be commissioned.
• The Euro plug of the mains cable must be properly connected to the 230 V AC mains power supply via a power socket. If
the unit has been permanently connected to the 230 V AC mains power supply, the safety device belonging to this
electrical circuit must be switched on.
• Remove any transport and mounting aids prior to the commissioning.
Operation
› Open the closing flaps (a), before the AEROLIFE is
switched on.
› Shut the closing flaps (b), before the AEROLIFE is
switched off for a longer period.

› Switch the unit on/off or set the required air flow by briefly pressing the button.

Care and maintenance
Electrically operated unit.
Risk of fatal injury from electric shock or fire.
To prevent personal injury or damage to property, always comply with the following instructions:
› Disconnect the mains plug out from the socket before you clean or service the unit. Do not pull on the cable to disconnect
the unit from the mains power supply.
› Switch off all poles of the feeder on units with permanent connection to 230 V AC mains power supply. The fuses may
need to be removed.
Cleaning
Important: When cleaning the AEROLIFE, do not allow liquids to get inside the unit.
• Never use cleaning agents that are aggressive or contain solvents or sharp-edged objects, as these may damage the
surfaces of the casing.
• Never clean the unit with a high-pressure cleaner or steam-jet cleaner.
• Clean the AEROLIFE with a cloth moistened with a mild soap solution or cleaning agent.
Original operating instructions AEROLIFE
08.2016 17
Replacing the filter
• The filter should be replaced whenever this is indicated in the display - every 6 months, at the latest.
• Only use genuine filters from SIEGENIA. You can purchase replacement filters from SIEGENIA or from specialist retailers.
Caution! Only activate and remove the specified unit components.
1. Insert a screwdriver into the left and then the right
opening of the front panel until the underlying snap
connection is released at both sides.
2. Fold the front panel forwards, unhinge and set down on
the side.
3. Fold the heat exchanger forwards.

4. Remove the filter from the heat exchanger and dispose of
it in the household waste.
5. Insert the new filter into the heat exchanger.
Note: The front cardboard strip on the filter cassette
must be inserted between the two aluminium edges (a +
b). The upper edge of the cardboard strip must close
under the top aluminium edge. The bottom edge of the
fleece filter must be pressed behind the bottom aluminium
edge (c).
6. Reassemble the AEROLIFE in the reverse order.
Note: Check the correct seating of the front panel if the
AEROLIFE does not function at once after the filter
exchange.
