SETUP Instructions IMPORTANT Place dehumidifier in the upright position. When transporting a dehumidifier to site, allow the dehumidifier to stand upright for 30 minutes before switching ON. This is necessary to allow the refrigerant system to stabilize and avoid system damage. SETTING UP THE DEHUMIDIFIER: Operate the dehumidifier in an enclosed area as this creates a drying chamber. Close all doors, windows and areas that open to external areas to maximize the dehumidifier’s water removal efficiency.
SETUP Instructions (continued) DRAINAGE: The dehumidifier pump connects to a plastic drainage hose. The hose is stored on the back of the appliance. Uncoil the entire hose, ensuring there are no kinks or restrictions, and place the unattached end into a drain or run outdoors. Ensure that draining running to the outdoors does not create a hazard that could cause someone to slip. Water drains MUST be checked regularly when used.

Operating Instructions General Use: Press the ON/OFF key to turn the unit on. It will begin working automatically. After use, press ON/OFF key to turn the unit off. Water pump will turn on automatically for 40 seconds to drain the remaining water in the unit, then turn off automatically. ATTENTION: • DO NOT switch the power OFF by disconnecting at the main socket outlet. • To avoid water spillage, DO NOT move the dehumidifier for at least 3 minutes after turning the power OFF.
Maintenance To clean the air filter: Ensure the dehumidifier is turned OFF and the plug is removed from the power outlet before performing maintenance. The working performance of the dehumidifier will be greatly reduced if the filter becomes blocked. 1. Remove the filter as shown in the diagram below. 2. Vacuum any debris from the filter using the vacuum hose and nozzle attachment. 3. Using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, wash the filter and allow to air dry completely. 4.
Maintenance (continued) Changing the battery: The battery allows the user to check the total working time of the unit even when the unit is powered off. (Press the “T” button to check this.) 1. Remove the screws in the four corners of the control panel. 2. Once the screws are removed, carefully lift the control panel to access the PCB. 3. On the PCB is a 6F22 9V battery.
