Tips

=Make sure the dehumidifier is the correct size for the area you want to dehumidify. It is not designed to dehumidify the entire house.

=For proper operation, the dehumidifier should only be placed on a level floor. Close all doors, windows and other open- ings to the room. The dehumidifier must operate in an enclosed area to be effective. To clean, use a soft cloth; do not use wax, thinners, or strong detergents as they may change the color of the unit or cause surface damage.

Be sure to replace the bucket properly after emptying to prevent water from collecting on the floor causing damage to some types of flooring.

Do not put a pet or house plant where it will be exposed to direct air flow. This could

injure the pet or plant.

Operation without filter will cause

unit failure. Insert the filter securely. Clean

it every two weeks. (See Care and Maintenance section in this manual.)
