If the pump light flashes it means that the pump is not functioning properly. Review the troubleshooting section of this manual for possible solutions.

SET HUMIDITY

The set humidity function will allow you to set the desired level of humidity you would like for the room. To set it, press the Set Humidity button and use the “+ “or “– “button to set the percentage. The unit will turn on automatically when the room humidity is higher than the selected humidity.

For the best results, the humidity level should be reduced gradually. Start at the highest setting. Reduce it by 5% until the compressor turns on. Allow the unit to run at this level until it maintains this level of humidity, then continue to reduce it gradually until it is between 30% and 50% depending on your level of comfort.

After setting the desired humidity, the unit will run automatically, maintaining the desired humidity.

The Relative Humidity may be set from RH 30% to RH 80%. The operational temperature for this unit is between 40°F and 95°F.If the temperature of the room falls below 40°F, the unit will stop. This function protects the compressor, and is normal.
