Location of components inside the machine
The visual checks should be performed even if the air conditioner is not used. The air conditioner should moreover be switched on once a month for 10 to 15 minutes. This prevents drying out and embrittlement of the shaft seal in the compressor. Otherwise there is a risk of refrigerant leaking out of the unit. This also ensures regular lubrication of the compressor components.
