OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

DEHUMIDIFY MODE

Humidity is extracted from the air, collected in the water tank and discharged through the upper drain outlet.

Use the MODE button to set the unit function to DEHUMIDIFY.

Remove the exhaust hose from the unit. Exhausting air outside of the room will nullify the DEHUMIDIFY function.

Remove the rubber plug from the upper drain outlet (shown in figure below) in the front of the unit, and attach the drain hose.

Allow water to flow out continuously into a bucket or floor drain.

NOTE: In DEHUMIDIFY, ventilator fan speed is preset to maximize efficient operation. You will not be able to adjust the fan speed. You may also allow the water to drain by opening the lower drain outlet and placing the unit directly over a shallow pan. Do not leave the unit unattended in case the pan fills and needs to be emptied.

CAUTION: Water will run out immediately once lower drain cap is removed. Place drain outlet over collection pan prior to removing cap.
