routine service and cleaning
Always unplug the unit from the mains before carrying out any maintenance or cleaning the unit.
Cleaning the body
Use only a soft cloth to wipe the unit clean.
Do not use volatile chemicals, petrol, detergents, chemically treated cloths or other harmful cleansing solutions. These could all possibly damage the cabinet.
Cleaning the washable air filter
This dehumidifier is equipped with a washable filter. This will capture most airborne pollutants like dust, smoke, animal dander, mould spores and pollen to create a less irritating living environment.
It is advisable to check the filter on a regular basis (at least monthly and after storage) and clean as necessary:
•Extract the filter holder
•Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly.
If the filter is particularly dirty, use lukewarm water with a small amount of medium strength detergent and rinse thoroughly under the cold water tap.
Make sure the filter is completely dry before replacing.
Do not expose the filter to sunlight or other sources of direct heat as this may cause the filter and frame to warp.

1.Empty any water left in the water tank.
2.Fold up the power supply cord and put it in the water tank.
3.Clean the filters.
4.Store in a cool and dry place.
