BEFORE FIRST USE

Selecting a location
Important!
1. Dehumidifier must be operated in an
enclosed area to be most effective.
Close all doors, windows, and other
outside openings to the room. The
effectiveness of the dehumidifier
depends on the rate at which new
moisture-laden air enters the room.
2. Place dehumidifier in a location that
does not restrict airflow through the
front of the unit or out of the louvers
on the left side of cabinet.
3. A dehumidifier operating in a
basement will have little or no effect
in drying an adjacent enclosed
storage area, such as a closet,
unless there is adequate circulation
of air in and out of the area. lt may
be necessary to install a second
dehumidifier in the enclosed area for
satisfactory drying.
4. The dehumidifier must be installed
on a level floor that will support it
with a full bucket of water.
• Do not climb on or place objects on
the unit.
• Do not hang objects off the unit.
• Do not place containers with liquids
on the unit.
• Turn off the dehumidifier at the
power source when it will not be
used for an extended period of time.
• Operate the unit with air filter in
place.
• Do not block or cover the intake
grille, discharge area and outlet
ports.
• Ensure that any electrical/electronic
equipment is one yard away from
the unit.
• Do not use or store flammable
gases near the unit.
5. There should be a minimum of
12 inches clearance around the
dehumidifier.

How it works

When the unit is started, the fan begins
to pull moisture-laden air across the
dehumidifying coils. The coils condense
or draw moisture from the air, and air
flows through the side louvers into
the room as dry, warm air. Moisture
removed from air is collected in a
bucket on the front of the dehumidifier.
The unit is designed to operate between
5°C (41°F) and 35°C (96°F). The unit
will not work properly if the temperature
is out of this temperature range, or the
performance of the unit will fall greatly.
The "Compressor" circuit has an
automatic 3 minute time delayed start
if the unit is turned off and on quickly.
This prevents overheating of the
compressor and possible circuit breaker
tripping. Make sure the tank is fitted
correctly otherwise unit will not turn on.
