DEHUMIDIFYING OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Before Starting This Unit

Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an electrical outlet,

Dehumidifying is a means of removing moisture from the air. A dehumidifier will help to protect your home and vetued possessions from damage caused by moisture (swelting) during high humidity conditions. Essentially a dehumidifier removes moisture from the air, as moist air passes over a dehumidi_ing coit (evaporator).

Moisture is condensed onto the evaporator, drained and collected inside an infernal water tank. The exhausted air being returned into the room environment is elevated several degrees causing the surrounding air temperature to increase (slightly). This proceSS also contributes to lowering the relative humidity of surrounding air.

Loostion:

To obtain maximum operating efficiency from your dehumidifier, the recommended (room ambient) operating temperature should be between 15.5°C/60"F - 32'C/90"F.

it is important to remember the efficiency of a dehumidifier

will be affectedlinfluenced by the rate at which new moisture is allowed to infiltrate the same space/area. To maintain efficiency, the dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area. Keep all doors and windows closed. '

Select a suitable location making sure there are no

obstructions restricting aiHIow st the front and back of the unit•

Installation:

1, Connect the power cord into a propedy grounded polarized 110/115 volt NC receptacle. (For your safety, please refer to grounding instrustions page 3):

2.Make sure the water tank is properly installed inside the cabinet, lithe (red) "water full" light starts flashing when the Unit is plugged in, the water tank is not properly installed.

3.When the unit is fir_ connected to a power supply, the (green) pilot light located directly above the "On/Of_ keypad will flash continuously (this is normal). The flashing light indicates the circuit board encountered a power failure/interruption (from being unplugged). The flashing light condition will cease immediately when the unit is switched on using the On/Off key pad and the unit will automatically default to the factory seffing previously described. The default setting cannot be re- programmed.

Dehumidifying:

The dehumidifier mode provides a feature thai will allow you the option of reading current room ambient temperatures in "Celsius" or "Faranheight"_

Follow these steps:

Oepress the MODE keypad. Each depression of the key pad will alternate through each of the optional modes. (DRY, HEAT, FAN). When the window adjacent to the "DRY" mode illuminates, the selection is complete.

Depress the _> keypad, allowing you to alternate between the *C/F RH settings adjacent to the LED display.

3.When the window adjacent to the "C illuminates, the LED will display the existing ambient room temperatures in "Celsius".

4.When the window adjacent to the "F iltuminates, the LED will display the existing ambient room temperatures in "Ferenheight".

5.When the window &djacsnt to the RH illuminates, the LED will display existing room humidity conditions as a "percentage" (%) value.
