Electrical connection

• Before connecting the appliance compare the specifications for the required input voltage on the rating plate with the intended voltage source for operation. This data must agree in order to avoid damaging the appliance.
• The power adapter connected to the appliance must always be easily accessible so that the appliance can be quickly disconnected from the mains power supply in an emergency.
• Ensure that the appliance power adapter cable is not damaged and that it is not laid over hot surfaces and/or sharp edges, otherwise it could be damaged.

Cleaning

Possible damage to the appliance!

• Protect the appliance from moisture and liquid penetration.
• To avoid irreparable damage to the appliance, never submerse the appliance in water.
• Ensure that you remove the power adapter from the mains power socket before cleaning the appliance.
• Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these can damage the surface of the housing.
• Never clean the water tank in a dishwasher. Otherwise it can be damaged.

• Clean the water tank regularly every two weeks to avoid mould and bacteria. To do this, fill the water tank with lukewarm water and add a commercial detergent. Rinse it out several times with lukewarm water. Furthermore, we recommend disinfecting after cleaning. To do this, use a commercial, alcohol-based disinfectant or one containing a high percentage of alcohol. Both substances are completely harmless if you rinse out several times with lukewarm water afterwards.
• Remove any dust deposits on the air intake and outlet openings ( + ) using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner. In order to clean the interior cooling ribs, remove the cover on the air outlet opening , and pull the water tank out of the appliance. Also clean the cooling ribs with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.
• Clean the housing only with a soft damp cloth and a mild washing-up liquid.

Storage

• Disconnect the power adapter from the appliance and empty the water tank , if you are not intending to use the appliance for some time.
• Store the appliance in a dry and dust-free environment.

* The lower the room temperature and the colder the external temperature, the lower the moisture content stored in the air will be. Air then flows from outside into the room to be dehumidified. For this reason, dehumidifying performance decreases with decreasing temperature, and can drop to zero. This does not indicate a defect of the appliance.
